I would have to ask Conner if they've ever had any luck with the cats during the day. They primarily load up in the evening when everyone else is coming off the lake and have had a lot of fun. He always says you would be incredibly surprised how shallow big walleyes get at night and how...
Catfish are legal in SD with a spear/archery equipment. Often year round. We spend a lot of time on Shadehill near Lemmon, SD and my cousin does this a lot during the summer. He targets them with his bow, along with carp, and does pretty well from their pontoon that is set up with lights.
We have really liked using our Ninja air fryer for jalapeno poppers/sweet pepper poppers (pepper with cream cheese in the middle, slab of pheasant or grouse, wrapped up in bacon). They seem to cook more evenly and it's a breeze to clean up.
Let me preface this story by telling you that I am actually blessed with a great group of in-laws.
One particular winter day a few years ago, I had picked the boys up from daycare and was just pulling into the driveway after a long day of work and really just wanted to relax. My mother-in-law...
Saw this article yesterday. Sounds like a really unfortunate event. Makes me sick...

We have a cabin on Shadehill near the West Cabin Boat Ramp. Have been out a bit so far this summer, fishing from both the shore/rocks and from the boat. Have done fairly well. On that lake, the minimum walleye size is 15". We picked up a lot of smaller ones on Sunday using crawlers/spinners...
If the picture of WJ's moose in Guide-Photo mode is one that sparked your curiosity, I have your answer.
It has a time-stamp of 6:47 pm. Had all of the meat into the raft in about 2 hours. Afterwards, it was haphazardly rowed back to the tent a few hundred yards to the northwest and across...
I do remember you begrudgingly agree to me taking this photo -and then laughing out loud at how incredibly different it looked compared to when you and I were behind the antlers. This is the perfect example of The Guide Photo. The hunting equivalent of the Ahab
I'm with Guywhofishes - on hanging a deer head up just adds a bit of morbidity to the situation making them look strung up. We've always done head down when skinning and processing deer, but I think that's because it's just the way we're used to and it creates a bit of muscle memory year to...
I have the 6.5-20x44 Viper you mentioned in your original post CatDaddy and I like it. However, I have to agree with SupressYourself that it isn't ideal if you're closer to your target. So it kind of depends on where you're deer hunting. I usually hunt mule deer/whitetail deer in the...
