    Plumbing question

    When we bought the house, the inspector suggested we cap this pipe. Never had water coming out of it until recently. There is no sump in the house but this pipe seems to be tied to the main water line, ie it shuts off or changes flow when I nudge the two shut off valves. What the hell do I do?

    Pellet Grills.....again.

    Finally going to make the leap into this pellet grill thing. Looking around the web has me down a rabbit hole that I can't dig out of. Here's where I'm currently hanging. The pitboss seems like a fairly cost effective option and you have the ability to sear a steak with the sliding door...

    Icast 2018

    Berkley Flicker shads now have a jointed and shallow version. Nothing else really struck me as a game changer but I still can't look away from all the new tackle updates.

    Internet Sales Tax

    Just seen the article that ND will start taxing online sales starting October 1st. On one hand, I think it needs to happen to keep money in the state, even though an increase in tax revenue will not likely decrease our own taxes (property, income, etc.). The other hand is pissed considering I...

    String Trimmers

    The old hand-me-down black and decker string trimmer is going into retirement. I keep debating whether or not I go to gas. Pros: no battery to run out, relatively inexpensive, power Cons: mixing fuel (not a huge issue but everything else I own is 4 stroke), noise, heavier Now my yard isn't...

    Lakewood entrance - mandan

    As many boats that have been just south of the Lakewood entrance, I'm still seeing people get dangerously close to the jetty that is now underwater. I have one friend (I wont name names) that took out a lower unit already and I watched an alumacraft smack into it on sunday. Just a heads up!

    DH Customs Apparel

    Figured I'd just start a new thread to have all updates in one spot. New hats are in. They are pacific 404M's. Initially, I only ordered two of each color just to see what the interest would be. A reorder would only take a couple weeks. Hat sizes are s/m which fits a head between 6 7/8"...

    Minnkota Terrova vs. MotorGuide Xi5

    I've had the motorguide xi5 and absolutely loved it. But, it went away with the old boat. I just sold the shitty terrova off the new boat after I spent an afternoon trying to anchor lock on a river seam. Never seen such garbage. SO, a new bow mount needed. You have two hours to convince me...

    Another New John's Giant

    BISMARCK — Whether the behemoth muskie Ryan Getz of Bismarck caught while ice fishing on New Johns Lake in Burleigh County is a new state record tiger muskie — a hybrid pike-muskie cross — or just a very large pure strain muskie won't be known until genetic test results become available...

    Peacock Bass: Fort Myers, FL

    The wife and I are headed to Fort Myers for a few Twins/Red Sox games at the end of March. She scheduled in a "beach day" but I heard "Dirty Mike goes fishing on the intercoastal water ways day." Either way, if one of you has some info, please feel free to send me a pm. I'm scouring the...

    Releasing fish

    Just ran across an article on another site. We've debated this topic plenty over the years and it was interesting to read this take vs. other theories. With a Winnipeg trip less than a week away, I'm still going to smuggle my 30"/10lb walleye back with me...

    Plumbing 101

    Got to test my plumbing and drywall removal skills last night. Outside spigot was leaking and creating a nice ice luge outside. Called in the old man with his superior skills. Since I can measure so well, I had to make the opening bigger than the access panel I purchased. Can’t find one that’ll...

    Rifle barrel threading

    Need to send my rifles off to get them ready for the new muffler. Somewhere around Bismarck is preferable but I can always make a drive if needed. Thanks.

    Water Hammer; what’s the fix

    Basement toilet has been making a bunch of racket for a couple weeks now. Tried shutting the water main off and draining all the pipes. It’s almost getting worse. Anyone able to give me a heads up on a fix?
