    Recommendations for Ice Flasher

    I'm a poor one to give advice so I'll just give my experience. I bought an FL-8 when Randy Moss was a rookie for the Vikings. Was in Minneapolis to watch them play the Packers and went to see the new Cabela's south of Minneapolis and bought the unit. Have been using it ever since and I think I'm...

    SB 2315 / Lockout

    I apologize if these comments have already been discussed as I'm so tired of this discussion. I did read comments about owners being the only one allowed to post. Makes sense as all maps list the landowner not the renter. If you are using Onyx and want to hunt land my wife and I own that is who...

    Carpentry question?

    It might be possible but I've never installed a bifold that was intended to be sealed tight. Kind of like the difference between an outdoor entry door versus an interior door into bedrooms, bathrooms, etc. Leave nothing to eat in garages and your mice problem is greatly reduced. Reduced, not cured.

    Carpentry question?

    Without question it would be bifold for me. Besides the door it will come with the hardware and install easily. A few screws to hold the rail and the bottom slot. Install door and make a few adjustment for height and you're done.

    Flip over Ice house recomendations

    Not sure about the model numbers you're looking at but I have the Jason Mitchell and am happy with it. For me I based my decision on which one would fit in the back of my pickup with the endgate closed. Mine is the 2 person model versus one that allows 3 to fish. I have a cover on my pickup and...

    HUB ice shelter recommendations

    Ditto on the insulated and ice anchors go in easily with an electric drill. Then make attachments to use with ice anchors.

    Ice fishing newbie. Advice requested. Location = Devils Lake. Opening Pandora's Box!

    I started ice fishing many years ago with an axe to open a hole. Then graduated to an ice pick. Thought I was in heaven when I finally bought a hand ice auger. Yes they do work and much easier to use a 6 inch instead of larger. It also doesn't require a huge investment in equipment. Pretty sure...

    Layout Blind and Call Recommendations

    As far as layout blinds I would recommend any blind that has NO PINS that need to be inserted in a small whole in the dark. I think mine is a Finisher and it basically folds up with some push-button slides and one cross-piece that needs to be inserted in to back end. Pretty simple to do in the...

    Ice House Question

    I have an Ice Castle Frame that I then built my own enclosure on the frame. I also have a Jason Mitchel flip-over as well as an insulate pop-up. Personal opinion would be for me if I only had one it would be the pop-up. Roomier than the flip-over as well as lighter. The Ice Castle is nice to...

    .243 question?

    My comments were not to criticize the 243 for your daughter but more to suggest there is more to a bullet than weight. For 50k years I shot 130 grain bullets with my 270. Shot a lot of deer with 130gr Nosler Ballistic Tips. Also shot a lot of deer with cheap shells bought at Kmart or Walmart or...

    .243 question?

    A 243 doesn't have the knock down power of a 300 mag. I'm sure your daughter will shoot that 243 much better than getting knocked around with a 300 mag. Proper bullet placement is far more important than any other part of shooting. A person can shoot bullets that perform better than others. A...

    Time dilemma: Hunt now or wait

    I'm sure you have your reasons but why do you make a 2-hour one way drive every time you want to sit in a deer stand? There has to be an area closer to home than that. On the other hand you could stay home and out of the wind, spending a little time with momma, and then next year you would have...

    Best gun cleaner

    I always thought the best gun cleaner was anyone who could take apart and put back together in operating condition a Browning Auto-5.

    What a great picture. Forget the bird mount, have this picture framed and treasure it forever.

    Trey declares

    Yes some companies do require signing an agreement. However, ND is a right-to-work state. Usually such agreements are unenforceable .

    Found electric knife (fort stevenson cleaning station) 10/01/20.

    Left and right handed knives are very similar. Now Metric Crescent Wrenches, they are hard to find.

    Game cams or mis-use

    Something smells fishy to me. We are bing told that ND is the only state without a trespass rule. In this story I see lots of gates that have "No Trespassing" signs. It seems to me that some lawyer couldn't find a way to file Trespassing charges against anyone who enters without reason. If...
