    Lottery

    I grew up hunting the regular season, no youth season. It had its joys and was a staple in our calendar. But the world has changed and giving kids a wider opportunity to shoot a deer helps compete with all the other things that pull families in 10 different directions each fall. If you need...

    Oahe report Mobridge

    Isn’t it the Columnaris virus that kills them after spawn? Happened a few times in my memory.

    Sak Van Hook Arm Fishing Reports?

    Last year late ice off and they skyrocketed. Cool rainy and windy things are slow. Hope the hot weather next week turns the bite on.

    Tadpole Diving Weights?

    I have never looked at the Jet dive curves. Running 30’s short could work. Tadpole will pull a stick bait but nothing that pulls hard. I would pull floating raps or Husky Jerks. 45 feet back and you’re close to 20’ down.

    Tadpole Diving Weights?

    I have considered Jets but even then you need 100’ to get to depth right? Might as well buy some and throw them with the dipseys I never use lol.

    Tadpole Diving Weights?

    Does anyone use the Offshore Tadpole diving weights? Considering using them off boards to run short leads and reduce tangles. I think only minnowbaits will work as larger lures will trip the mechanism. I’ve used them for crappie trolling before with small jigs with success. Just haven’t...

    MR Crappie in Beaver Bay - south?

    The Oahe crappie boom was certainly mid 2010’s. A few years we caught tons around Mobridge. Now very few. Still a few but very limited.

    Runnings buys H o E

    Poorest snow year in years, 20k sleds, not hard to figure out. And Cat doesn’t make desirable Atv or Utv products so things are tough. Lots of this is coming to the toy market. Alumacraft just dumped 100 plus jobs. Cost of living is catching up.

    Uncut Angling Barotrauma Video

    I don’t have a ton of experience fishing deep. I had a stellar day several falls ago on a lake with crappies and walleyes. We were targeting the eyes in 36-40 feet and catching lots of crappies incidentally. We released both with basically all of them swimming away. Four hours later there...

    Oahe report Mobridge

    Have friends that fished south of Mobridge and did well. Good to see the lake going decent again!

    Applicators license

    I know a few guys that have them in SD who may not be able to tie their shoes. Same type of testing. So having the license doesn’t mean much. I did my private applicator test online in about an hour on my phone drinking beer and ignoring the in-laws lol. Christmas fun!

    Tailrace trout

    Water gets too low and warm for fish to survive being caught. You can only fish early mornings when water is cool, or not at all. Most of the low elevation stuff in MT will be under hoot owl restrictions this summer I’d bet with low runoff.

    Wicked Waters Taxidermy

    Mine went to a full time known business. Three years later I got a call from game and fish to come get my birds. They got so many complaints about slow work they took everything after he fell off the earth. Too bad the freezers had been off and I got a stinky pile of mush. I can honestly...

    Wicked Waters Taxidermy

    What is with taxidermists? Is the work so tedious they can’t handle it full time or make money? I lost a couple nice birds to a guy that fell off the earth. Buddy lost a nice fish to one too and have heard never ending stories like this?

    Kristi Noem Dog Killer

    The best line I’ve read was this- Unfortunately, sometimes to be a hero you have to shoot the dog. But you forever become the villain when you brag about it. Pretty much sums up the what most reasonable folks think. We get that it happens, and needs to at times. But it isn’t something...

    Rain

    MT looks to be getting a decent rain out of this. Maybe a touch more runoff for the big lake?

    Kristi Noem Dog Killer

    Too bad when she met Kim Jon Un she didn’t treat him like Cricket! In all seriousness, she needs to put the shovel down. Many folks think she’s an idiot now, and then she goes on a news show and removes all doubt. Just shut up for awhile!

    Oahe report Mobridge

    Anyone hear if there was much of a smelt run on Oahe?
