    Ive been shooting beretta xrema 2s. I have 2 of them. Love them for my waterfowl hunts. Have put a ton a rounds through each especially in goose season. But I guess Im getting old cuz they're starting to feel heavy. I just bought a Franchi affinity 3. Took it goose hunting this weekend...

    20 Gauge

    That is a good point SDMF. That's goes back to my first comment..common sense. If buyers just use a little with also a little restraint we may be in a better place.

    20 Gauge

    I understand people picking up things when sales. I do. What I don't understand is when some go to a store in a hoarding panic and buy up a shelf. And....keep doing it. There are some out there that have thousands upon thousands of rounds in their safe yet the OPs son can't find a 20g shell...

    No problem...you obviously need it. Common sense is sure hard to find isn't it?

    People need to stop hoarding ammo. It's gotten ridiculous. All stores should only allow 2 boxes per caliber a day.

    Duck hunter's beware~

    I read an article similar to this. Can't remember where it happened? Iceland or northern CN? Anyway a retriever was returning with a duck from the ocean and was attacked by a sea lion. Think it survived but bad shape.

    broken st. croix rod ?

    *update* I got a hold of a customer service fella. I just had to use a hacksaw and cut off piece near handle where it had serial and model number, place in envelope with a check for $55 and mail in. They'll send me a new rod. No questions asked. I think that is pretty square! I guess that is...

    Bigger Walleye Tactics

    like size fish generally hang with same size fish schools. So prob not a lot of of 28-30s in a school of 15s. Maybe, but less odds. Most fish I've caught 25-30inches were with other bigger fish. Not necessarily that big but prob not with eaters. I agree also...I have caught a few big ones...

    Ipilot issue

    Last eve was the maiden voyage for the year for my boat. Terrova wouldn't work right. First off the remote would only work intermittent but I think that was probably bad battery? But I couldnt get the motor to hardly work. The light on foot pedal for constant was on but no power to prop. I would...

    Poachers caught

    Everyone makes mistakes in life. I think first offense should be a pretty stiff penalty. Not over the top but noteworthy. Future offenses obviously much harsher fines, penalties etc. However, If caught once I think they should be required to go to some type of counseling or training that...

    What are these?

    The bones protruding off the side of vertebrae are called transverse process bones. I broke two of them in my back 8-9 yrs ago. Holy hell was that painful!

    Stocking up on lures - what to get for the river?

    I think I've caught more fish on a Storm Smash Shad than any other crank. Just comparing cranks. They are now discontinued and the Runnings in Aberdeen has a whole shelf of them for 2.99. So I stocked up again. See if you can find those.
