    24 Below at Ft. KDM this morning.............

    This cold crap is starting to REALLY suck. Most of the time, winters don't bother me much, but this one is really starting to wear on me. I actually thought about just getting in the truck and driving south until I find 40 degrees, sitting on the tailgate, and drinking a beer or three before...

    Question for Military Vets Past and Present on MWR Dogs

    With this garbage weather we've been having lately, I've been sitting in the house petting my dogs and hoping for warmer weather and it got me thinking about how calming a dog can be to a person. So I started looking up the myriad of ways dogs are helping people deal with adversities both great...

    Winter Heating....with corn!

    We dropped over 2 grand on propane last year for heating which prompted a search for an alternative. We purchased a corn stove last spring and fired it up the first of November. All I can say is I wish I'd have acquired one 5 years ago. This stove has kept the whole house (basement included)...

    Pheasant Shape.................

    Hey Guys, just a friendly reminder that there's just over 30 days until pheasant season and it might be a good idea to get your dogs out and running a bit so when that opening day rolls around they aren't finished after 2 hours of running. I'm going to use grouse season as an excuse to get Herc...

    Deer Hunting Land for Youngsters Available

    Well my daughter has her first youth buck tag this year, but I only have two bucks on my place, a forkie and a small 4X4. Needless to say, we are going to be hunting somewhere else on land that a fellow NDA'er was gracious enough to let us hunt on. Thanks again for the opportunity. You know...

    Caffeine BOMB..........

    I like to drink coffee and could drink it all day long when I was in the service. The blacker the better was my motto. Now I drink a half caffeine blend from folgers and have from a few cups to a pot throughout the day. Well my beautiful bride accidentally bought some full strength coffee and...

    I'm addicted to Power Pro

    I experienced an unfortunate line fopah two days ago where a loop in my PP was burned through by a cast and I lost 90% of the line on my spool. I thought I could just use mono and get by until I could restock my supply of PP. WRONG!!!!! Fishing with mono felt like I was using an overstretched...

    Sheyenne Muskie

    I have to give a HUGE shout out to Jon for this pic as he was gracious enough to not only snap the pic and send it to me, but he took time out of his fishing day to come over and share this great experience with me. Thanks again Jon!!! This was the first one I caught, but the second one was...

    Good News Guys, I'm starting my own conservation group................

    I finally got mad enough to put my money where my mouth is just like Vollmer did with this AWESOME web site. With all the garbage flying around about who takes money from who, who voted for who, and blah blah blah, I took it upon myself to find out where and how an average schmuck like me can...

    Slug Gun Discussion

    So I've shot deer with a bow, rifle, muzzle loader, and pistol, but I've not taken one with a shotgun, so I've decided to chase MN deer this year with a slug gun even though I can use a rifle where I hunt to make it a bit more of a challenge. I don't have ANY experience with slugs, the best...

    Maybe NDA needs a new section.

    I just looked at the fishing reports and the entire thing is filled with requests for information and not fishing reports. I'm NOT upset that folks ask for info AT ALL as I think it's a great way for us to help each other out. However, maybe there needs to be a "Help Wanted" section or...

    Sneaky Ice

    Watch yourselves out there fellas. Lots of slush on top of the ice covered in this new layer of snow. Broke through the ice coming off the lake into about 2 ft of water as I neared the access point. Puckered my backside, slowly added the gas, and crawled out through the ice and mud. NOT a...

    What's a "Jumbo Perch"

    Some friends and I had a discussion about what it takes for a perch to be labeled a "Jumbo". I have been asked about Jumbo perch many times and to this day I'm not real sure what that means. I myself think that any perch that is 12 inches or longer is a Jumbo. However, the requirements vary...

    Fish Preferences??

    I was sitting in the spear house discussing fish preferences with another spear fisherman and the question posed was this...."Would you rather have ten 2 pounders come in or two 10 pounders?" Which got me thinking about fish preferences in general. Now I would rather have the two 10 pounders...

    Valley City Ice Report

    WE DON'T HAVE ANY!!! Went for a drive with the Mrs. today to look at some lakes and saw just as much open water as we did ice. Hobart, 50% open, Sanborn 30% open, Moon 50% open, Fox 30% open, Eckelson 30% open and what's not open looks like thick slush with a nice "Frothy" topping. For you...

    Weather Calls.........

    Hey fellas, got up this morning and the radar for ND looks nasty. However, radar can make things look worse or better than they are. We have freezing rain here in Valley City and I can't even walk on my deck. Driving may be treacherous already. Just trying to give folks a heads up if you...

    NOT so big MT Mulie Down

    I just returned from a MAGNIFICENTLY SPECTACULAR hunting trip to Montana with Kickemup and I hope he composes his own thread on his experiences as I don't want to steal his thunder relating my own story. We spent 7 days in the beautiful Montana mountains and another 5 days in the more prairie...

    Papa Smurf had a REAL GOOD WEEKEND!!!!

    As many of you know, I was in Minnesota for the opening weekend of rifle season to hunt with my 77 year old Uncle, my Dad, my Brother, and my Cousin. We were in an intensive harvest unit so we each could have an either Buck or Doe tag and a bonus Doe tag so we had potentially 5 buck tags and...
