    Lake of the Woods Lures

    Stop sign lures are apparently the "go to" up there, but I've never had the best luck. Plus they're super heavy, which I suppose is OK if you're in 30-some FOW. Gold. Red. Yellow/Chartruese. Glow. Rattling and non rattling. And a set line with a plain hook. I don't think it's too...

    Can't you just reinvent your career and give yourself 4-day weeks ;)

    retirement, good or sucks

    Here's some perspective for you: Grandpa Ray retired when he was 55. Him and grandma lived modestly, but comfortably. Grandma died a year ago. Grandpa lived to be 94 (passed away this fall). Grandpa Vern retired when he was 62. Him and grandma lived modestly, but comfortably. He lived to be...

    Be careful when buying your wife/gf a Xmas gift

    Man...I'm a marketing and communications guy, and that whole angle went TOTALLY over my head. I've seen those commercials a couple times, and two things stick out: 1) They're targeting the selfie/social media culture. You know the types: Women who have 300 selfie pics on their social media...

    Shame on you hunters

    Exhibit A on why this law will do NOTHING to curb what's already going on. I sincerely would like a straight answer from one of the law's proponents on HOW a state-wide posted law would stop this sort of thing, especially since the "hunter" was ALREADY FRIGGIN' TRESPASSING IN THE FIRST PLACE?????

    Shame on you hunters

    Agreed guywhofishes. I, too, would like to see this "majority" spoken of. Because based on rudimentary causal personal observation, I'd say that the majority of ag land in the state I've witness is still un-posted. Sure, there are pockets where densities tilt the other way; however, I'd still...

    Shame on you hunters

    You do realize that a majority of the folks hammering to make all public land automatically posted are the same ones who want to sell of public land to the highest bidder and think true public property is government overreach...

    Shame on you hunters

    Jay Thomas had a couple guys from North Dakota Lock Out FB page on yesterday afternoon. I've never been tempted to call in to a radio show until listening to those two. Of course, you couldn't get a word in edgewise. And for CHRIST'S sake, the whole, "well, your city lot isn't posted, how...

    Walleye cheeks could be OFF the menu.....

    I did always find it really odd that there even was a possession limit, yet you had cleaning stations at popular boat ramps. How the heck do you prove possession, let alone species, when everything is cleaned on site?

    Sioux/Gophers tonight at 7pm.

    There was a GREAT article about that. I'm not sure if this is the one, but it hits the mark: http://www.citypages.com/news/how-don-lucia-killed-the-minnesota-gophers-hockey-dynasty/477582963 - - - Updated - - - This is what I feel is the crux of the issue with MN: "It wasn’t that Lucia had...

    Sioux/Gophers tonight at 7pm.

    I can't imagine the Gophers will fail that miserably twice in a row, so I hope the Sioux don't let up. Would suck to split the series after such an opening-night trouncing. Also, Gopher fandome is gone. They are a glimmer of what was once an honorable opponent/fan base. It's pretty pathetic...

    Tesla Cybertruck

    No...I mean for customers on off-peak electric, they pay less for their electric because the energy company ripples them, forcing them to have a backup heat source in the process. The rate for their electric is reduced altogether, not just what is used to heat the home. So theoretically if a...

    Tesla Cybertruck

    I just had a thought: would off-peak electric customers potentially be able to "fill up for less" than folks on the grid paying full-rate electric?

    Here's your chance to be hard

    I went to one. ONE. Know what the entire conversation devloved to? Discussion about what the state is going to do about "all them dam yotes." "We should have a bounty!" I did chuckle when the one G&F rep got a bit peeved and point blank asked the crowd how many of the landowners crying about...

    Upland Bird Hunters and Cable Device Users (eg snares) - Another Year!

    My youngest dog got himself in a snare three years ago on un-posted private property. Must be because he's used to a leash, but he never pulled. He just stayed still and waited. Luckily I had a GPS collar on him as he was in cattails. Once I found him, he wagged his tail and I slipped the snare...

    Are you Nodakers killing any deer? ** Crickets**

    I'm not now, nor have I ever been, a horn hunter. In fact, the quicker I can fill my tag, the happier I am. It means more time over the weekend with my family back home, and more time to take care and butcher my deer as best I can. So on Friday, at 12:15, when the first deer that came by was a...

    TWO Taggers

    I had a buck rifle tag and also have a bow tag to fill. But I'm going to shoot the first non-fawn that comes by with my bow, so time will tell if it's a "buck" tag or not.

    Favorite meals.

    Favorite meals. That's a tough one, but I think it's cheeseburgers. Back in college, I ate a burger darn near every day at the mess hall. And when we go out to eat, my go-to if I can't find anything more appealing is some sort of cheeseburger. Heck, if I had to pick anywhere to eat in Fargo, it...

    UND fighting Sioux mens hockey

    I gotta say, I miss the good old WCHA days. Seeing Minnesota at 37th or whatever is pathetic. I'll preface this by saying I HATE the Gophers. It's a deep hatred. I think any true Sioux fan feels the same way. But they don't even have a program any more. Can't keep fans in the seats. And now...

    So whats the rule

    To me, having to tag that eaten deer would be like having to stop hunting because you wounded a deer and couldn't find it. How many hundreds (nay, thousands?) of deer get winged every year during the hunting season, and because of poor tracking conditions or whatnot, are never recovered? I...
