    Favorite Canadian Destinations

    Dunlop's Lodge in Northern Manitoba was an excellent trip. Only lodge on the lake, lots of fish, but the fly-in on the bush plane is a little sketch. Primarily a big Pike trip but lots of 16-18" walleyes to be had up in the little pickerel river. They have floater plane trips to some outpost...

    Your strangest catch?

    We've caught all kinds of stuff over the years; seagull(s), lots of other lures, bottom bouncers, rocks, clams, a G-loomis rod, fish that are as small as the lure we were using, a giant tree and a walleye the same time both on the nose hook of a jig rap, a walleye that was hooked with lure of...

    Broken collarbone

    Vollmer, I’d like to “like” your post but I really don’t like it at all, lol. How about a thumbs down 👎, sucks getting a major injury like that.

    Broken collarbone

    :sick: That ain’t good. Wishing him a quick recovery! My kid plays as a 7th grader and I can tell he’s concerned about getting hurt and missing out on basketball. He actually told me the other day on our way out deer hunting that he wasn’t sure he wants to play next year, figures he’ll be QB...

    Possible prop change?

    One thing I didn't get to deep into is engine height. It's not likely to fix your hole shot, however it will have an effect on the overall performance of the boat and each one of those props that I mentioned require a different hieght for optimal performance. Without a Jackplate it certainly...

    Possible prop change?

    Well, the reason it's doggy is your 600-700 rpms short of the max rated rpm for that engine (6,400 rpms if I have it right). Essentially your lugging that engine. You probably need to be running a 18P prop. Your top end speed will likely stay about the same but the hole shot and mid range will...

    What was your 1st boat, ever?

    My first boat that was truly mine was a 2000 Yarcraft Storm SC powered by a 2006 225 Optimax. Still, probably one of the best pure fishing layouts of all the boats I've owned. With that said, I grew up on the water, the first one I remember our family having was an old 15 or so foot closed bow...

    (Poll) Fall: Hunting or Fishing?

    I dont' plan to winterize the fishing boats until November. The Jet Ski and Pontoon can be put away at anytime as far as I'm concerned. We have a youth doe tag to knockout, and then start chasing roosters in October. If we have some weekends where it's going to be 70-80 degrees during pheasant...

    Livescope

    This is my first year for me using Birds Mega Live. It's pretty dam amazing. It actually probably ups the frustration level even more as you know without a shadow of a doubt if fish are in the area, and yet you'll still find you can't get them to bite! I can't say for sure it's put more fish in...

    100vs200yd Zero

    This is exactly what I was trying to say with knowing what % magnification your set at and being able to do the quick math in your head.

    100vs200yd Zero

    I think with most of what people are shooting for rifles, a 200 yard zero isn't that far off of a MPBR zero, depending on your definition of MPBR. I look at it this way; With a 200 yard zero, most rifles need no discernible adjustment at 100 yards when it comes to making a clean shot, you know...

    `/*%$ taxes

    You want to start boiling the down to the real issues of taxes. It's a system based on the ability to pay versus being based on the services you receive. Make more money, pay more in income taxes but get the same or less benefits than the person or family making less. Work hard, own a nice home...

    Come on Allen, you know Lunk doesn't fact check anything he posts. You just have to assume it's regurgitated internet trash if it has his name attached to it. Most of us have given up on trying to fix this issue.........

    Christensen Arms

    I considered a Christensen Arms on my last build but there were just too many questionable reviews laying out there for me to drop $2-3k on one. I was after a lightweight long range build that I could source highly accurate factory ammo (I just don't have the time or desire to reload). I ended...

    ND E-posting 2022

    Dude, Get your facts right otherwise your just part of the problem of misinformation being spewed which isn't helping anyone. It's not my favorite piece of legislation by far but before condemning it you need to know it. FYI, get the name right to.. ...Robert Erbele!

    Snap weight clips?

    Offshore for me. I think I've literally lost one clip in two years and that's only I tried to hug the sunken trees on the east end of shell. That was more of cocky operator vs bad equipment. There wasn't nothing coming back to the boat on that one, lol. With that said, I'm not a die hard cranker...

    2021 F150 2.7 Ecoboost- Who's got one

    If you read my post carefully you will see my average isn't a ton different than you buddies. I usually drive pretty hard and I'm usually pushing my luck speed wise. There isn't anything I've driven that has given me as big of a mpg range as one of these. when I mention 25, in all honesty is was...

    2021 F150 2.7 Ecoboost- Who's got one

    Well, I've owned an 11', a 15', and a 21' 3.5 ecoboost and we have many in our work fleet so I'm pretty experienced with them. I pretty much always have the cruise set at +5 mph over the speed limit and I typically rack up 35k-40k miles per year. Mileage wise, with the 3.5 you can expect 17-22...

    Why is the youth deer season so short?

    Allen, I was gonna say your wrong on your 16th year old because I happen to have a 16-year old daughter of my own but that could come down to there actual birth date. I know my daughter participated in the youth doe season early on in her hunting career. Side note, I was definitely not in the...
