    Who's Ever Doing The Rain Dance.....

    The Bismarck Bubble! It is amazing how frequently rain dissipates or splits right as its getting to Bismarck, only for it to blow back up right after it passes.

    Water headed for Sakakawea?

    Keep it coming! Sak is currently at 1831', with current inflow of 51k. The Yellowstone alone at Billings is running that right now so we may see inflows of 75k+ by end of week. We may get lucky and gain a few more feet yet this year. :;:rockit

    Audubon transition?

    Audobon could be a pretty sweet Muskie lake I think with the amount of structure, unfortunately you can't fish 2/3 of it in the summer. The only thing they have stocked in Audubon for the last decade is walleye and ski's, but no walleye since 2018, I'm assuming maybe already too many small fish...

    Should we add a new State Record Fish Category?

    MT seems to have a record for about every fish swimming in the state including creek chub, fathead minnow and smelt. https://fwp.mt.gov/fish/anglingData/records

    Water levels?

    Nope below average, but we have climbed a little the last couple weeks. We were 80% of average, now we are in the low 90's percentage.

    Deer Summary

    I thought I had seen a while back how many tags were returned or at least the percent. I don't think it was enough to really matter to be honest. Most people with a tag still went out and gave it the college try even if they ended up throwing in the towel after a few days because of lack deer.

    Electric boats? coming soon or probably not?

    I think to many people get caught up in the fossil fuel vs electric debate when it comes to electric vehicles. We haven't all switched to electric augers because they are "green" we've done it because they are lighter, faster, more convenient easier to maintain etc. Eventually the same will go...

    Electric boats? coming soon or probably not?

    Pull the batteries out of that sparkly boat and let me know how far you get. How are just bigger batteries powering an electric motor any different. Been using completely electric trolling motors for decades, a bigger one wouldn’t be any different. Basically “electricity” as you put it isn’t the...

    Savings account alternative??

    Hmm never heard of these, just a bit of reading and think I may have to check them out. Sound like there may also be an advantage to locking in the current April rate of 7.12% for the next 6 months and then you would get the May rate of 9.62% for the next 6 months after that, basically...

    April Blizzard Predicted next week

    Its about a half block visibility on the edge of Bismarck right now. I can see the houses across the street and behind me but nothing beyond that. Drifts are starting to form and my neighbor cant make it up his driveway in a car, because of the snow and ice under it. Made the right decision to...

    Motorcycles

    I rode some dirt bike as a kid and then had a street bike for 10 years and put on 20k miles without incident. I went on a couple trips which were fun and would have probably done more if my buddies didn't all get married and have kids so quick. Sold my bike a few years ago after I was just kind...

    2022-24 Fishing Proclamation

    I don't love the increased regulations on bass, other than maybe on Sak. where the smallies are plentiful, but maybe its because so few people keep them anyways that it doesn't mater.

    401 k

    Start a Roth IRA at a brokerage like Fidelity or Vanguard and buy whatever you want. There are income and contribution limits, but basically if your a marred couple making under $200k you can contribute $12-14K depending on age. The general consensus is get 401k company match, then max out Roth...

    401 k

    Those of you that had lower returns last year likely are closer to retirement or just have more conservative portfolios in general. For younger people in their 20's and 30's with a mostly stock portfolio a 15-20% gain for 2021 was very doable without any active management. 401k isn't something...

    401 k

    Do you have your entire portfolio in tech or something? Something is not right if your even since the start of 2021. My current 401k was up 15.75% in 2021 and is down -4.84% in 2022. Another rollover IRA I have from past job was up about 19% in 2021 and now is down about 5% for 2022. I don't...

    Trick your Monster Box

    Otter box is a must for an ice fishing atv, it’s amazing how much they can hold and you just drive your rig on the trailer and go, no unloading everything. To bad they quit making the rod box that slides on though.

    This guy seems to deserve it...

    Yeah I've always heard that if they ask and you hand it to them they can take it, but they cant just grab it on their own. Not at all sure if this is true though.
