    Who's your favorite "Muppet"????

    I was talking with my daughter today at pizza ranch and the muppets came up in the conversation. She, of course, had NO IDEA what I was talking about so I did my best to explain "The Muppet Show". My favorite muppet is Animal. How can you go wrong with a drummer on High Caffeine and Crack...

    Already Started MY Trapping Season!!!!!

    Had a critter digging holes around the foundation of my shop so I decided to kick off my trapping season. I used a 1.5 Victor long spring in front of the most heavily used entrance. I didn't think I needed to cross stake the trap, so I just used a single 18 inch rebar stake and covered the set...

    Does velvet make a smaller buck better than a larger buck????

    I've had a few discussions on shooting velvet bucks and the topic of velvet adding or subtracting from trophy quality always seems to come up. I myself have never shot a velvet buck, so given the choice between a 120's velvet deer and a 140's hard horned deer, I'd draw down on the velvet buck...

    How beneficial are fishing reports anyway???

    I think they help....or maybe I'm hoping they help as I post some of these reports, but I've had several discussions over the years about the benefits of posting a fishing report. Some say people just read them, but figure they are not as truthful as they should be. Others like to read them...

    Good Grief, Early Goose Season is just over a month away!!!!!!!

    Holy Crap am I behind the curve here. I have about 10 dozen decoys to clean, reflock, and get ready to hunt. I have to re-camo my blind and make sure that's ready. I need to inventory my ammo supply and restock as needed. And most of all, I need to get my daughter behind the trigger as...

    After the hit..............

    Reading that article about blood trailing got me thinking about how I trail deer after the hit. I wait the proverbial "30 minutes" after the hit almost all of the time if I don't see the critter go down. Once I pick up the trail, I don't stop until I find the critter or the critters bed. Upon...

    Would you rather........

    fish for 2 hour a day for 12 days or 8 hours a day for 3 days?? I kind of like to get out for a couple hours a day and unwind from whatever. It gives me something to look foreword to. Kind of like the desert part of the day.

    NAFA SALE!!! Time to make some money!!!............maybe.

    The NAFA sale starts soon and this will be my first time selling fur I've trapped. I have 37 coyote furs up there waiting to sell. It would be real nice to see strong prices for this sale, just like in the last one. However, price won't keep me from going after them again this year. This...

    Is a GUI possible????

    I've put away about a 18 pak today and started the grill in an attempt to grill some elk burgers. Can a guy get a Grilling Under the Influence citation??? I hope not as the burgers are done and they smell AWESOME, so I guess I may not care at this point. Grill On Guys!!!!!

    Repainting Goose Decoys????

    Hey Waterfowlers, I just picked up a couple dozen full body Canada deks and they've seen better days. The price was very very reasonable, so I'd like some input from the peanut gallery on how best to improve them. They have wear on the wings and feather edges where they were rubbed. I know...

    Large Smelt the Pike Fishermen

    My wife and I just got back from Hornbachers Northport and they have bags of 9-11 inch frozen smelt. I haven't seen smelt of this size in a store in years. I picked up 3 bags and they were about 10 bucks a bag. Get'em while they last.

    Did MN fishing hit the crapper???

    I was fishing on Ashtabula recently and noticed 2/3rds of the boats going by had MN registration. I thought there might have been a good deal on MN boats, but the vehicles in the parking lot all had blue plates too. A guy from MN was fishing right next to me and I asked him "Did MN fishing hit...

    I'm so pissed of right now I don't even like myself................

    Life rocked my world with a wicked curve ball today that sent me into a level of pissed off Mr. Webster hasn't been able to define yet. I'd normally go fishing right now, but that is not an option. Other than MASSIVE adult beverage consumption, what do you guys do to maintain sanity in an...

    Wild Turkey

    My lovely Wife made the wild turkey I shot last night and it was a culinary delight to say the least. I was very very surprised at how tender and flavorful the meat was as I was expecting it to have the flavor and texture of the meat to be somewhere between asphalt and the liner of my combat...
