    Upland hatch?

    I saw many adult phez earlier but only 1 brood, good sized. Plenty of bugs around for young chicks so I think they did ok in eastern ND. Everything that can be hayed is gone except the WPAs and deeper cattails. If it stays dry they will get burned off this fall. Saw 1 grouse brood which is...

    Beer shortage

    Absolutely. Grain grading by "buyers" has to be one of the biggest legal thefts ever invented. All of the grains are ripped off.

    Canadian Smoke

    I did the same. For a while yesterday there was a half mile visibility and this might go on until late fall.

    CCI Velocitor FYI

    I bought the same rifle in '76 (actually bought it twice). When fox were high priced it paid for all of our furniture in the house.

    Training collars

    I have had good results with Sport Dog. The controller is small & a 3/4 mile range. I have GWPs and the collars have tone, vibrate, juice and a horn/beeper. If dog is in thick cattails the horn is nice to just pop a couple times to locate the dog on point. I never use it on continuous setting. I...

    Electronic Posting

    Pull up the PLOTS map. The cross hatched ground is e-posted and click on it to show the contact person, which may or may not list anything besides a name. (We just want to know who's on our land.....) Good luck with that.

    Bear Spray

    Bear Spray should include indeible dye. Make it a lot easier to find offenders.

    Tinnitus

    Mine started in my mid fiftys. The whistle wasn't too bad but I losse my balance and if I lay on the caddy in the shop it feels like floating in outer space. Can actually get dry heaves. Three years ago I got fitted hearing aids from the VA and it is a game changer. Pretty much stopped the...

    No till food plot

    A couple years ago I bought one of the milo mixes from PF. Sprayed out the vegitation with roundup and mowed and burned it, then seeded with a Haybuster drill. It worked good that year but the rain was perfect too.

    Magnet Fishing

    A buddy was bridge fishing with a magnet and got a pistol in pretty good shape. Somebody must have had a guilty conscience.

    Nesters

    Max nailed a hen mallard this morning that was slow off the nest. Why a duck would nest close to the house is beyond me. On a good note am seeing some hatched already.

    Shelter Belts

    I am partial to eastern red cedar, wild plum and buffalo berry. That way you get less raptors and deer aren't much of a problem. I sprayed a 4' wide strip with roundup the summer prior to planting and Soil Conservation planted into it the next year. I spot sprayed the thistles a few times and...

    NDGF: Steinwand Retiring

    Top soil is a one time asset. Let it blow or wash away and it is gone. You can build any number of burger doodle joints as they depreciate out but all those yellow clay knobs across ND have lost their fertility forever. And farmers are still doing that today.

    Used the same Mr. Twister for 25 + years. Bought at a rummage sale for $5. Sharpen the serrated side with a diamond hone and buff the back side with an Eversharp.

    Is spring here?

    Had a bag of Pro Plan Sport open at the end of pheasant season. That kibble is too hot for my dogs if they aren't working but blue jays love it.

    Spring snows 2021

    Saw a few hundred flying east just N of Verona. They are going to come through quick now.

    Possible rolling blackouts

    Yep. Texas went through this same freeze in the late '60s, late '90s, 2011, and now. It isn't red or blue or renewables, it is apparently the result they want or they would change their behavior. A couple months ago Texas was talking about seceding from the USA. But I see they went running to...
