    Too bad someone can't find a use for those things. Never ending supply some years!

    Water Heaters: Tankless vs Traditional

    A gas on demand, sized properly, will handle nearly any reasonable demands you place upon it. The biggest problems I see are plumbers who try to save money on new houses by putting small units in but then advertising them with on demand. The small units can't keep up. Our plumbing contractor...

    Kyle Ritenhouse~

    It's pretty clearly self defense IMO. The prosecution's case is weak and the defense has done a good job refuting most points. That said, I believe in the bigger picture the trial is about accountability. You take an open carry rifle into a riot and you better damn well be prepared to be...

    Outboard freeze up?

    My Yamaha dealer when asked about this told me to run them for a few seconds when full down to try to pull that last bit out. I questioned them on the water pump and they said a short amount of time like that is not a big deal (less than 10 seconds) as there is still residual water lubricating...

    Outboard freeze up?

    I have a Yamaha F200 and fish a lot in the late fall. I always drain the motor down fully at the end of the day, full tilt down. I start it for a few seconds as well. Even still, sometimes the next morning I don't get water out of the pee hole. It takes a long, long time to get the motor...

    Waterfowl

    Headed out of the house this morning and could hear lots of specks going south with the wind. Great, unmistakable sound to wake up to! Actually seems like fall right now!

    Homicide ? Alec Baldwin

    I fully understand it was real. Use of the words lookalike were meant as through the movie viewers eyes. If you read the whole of my post I’d think you would understand I knew it was a real gun and that their lack of safety was unacceptable.

    Homicide ? Alec Baldwin

    I think it's easy to point the finger and call him an idiot. However, we've got to realize how blessed we are to grow up and be taught safe use of firearms. What is normal for us in terms of firearms safety means nothing to a person with no experience. Add in the fact that it's a movie and is...

    Moist

    14" of snow should kill EHD midges right? hat's what I've got outside right now. Most dense, moisture packed snow I have ever seen. Trees are taking a beating.

    Inline Muzzleloader?

    SD you can hunt antlerless for 3 months. I hunt with a bow tag but will get an antlerless muzzy tag too.

    Inline Muzzleloader?

    This will be a safe queen much of the time. It will be taken out when I want to do something different than my bow. Frankly, I find shooting a deer at 250 yards with a rifle really not that challenging or fun. This I can pick up a antlerless tag and sit in the tree for 3 months if I want...

    Inline Muzzleloader?

    Looking at getting an inline muzzleloader as I'm just not into the long range rifle thing too much anymore. Nothing fancy, CVA Wolf, Traditions Buckstalker, or T/C Impact. This will be an open sight gun FYI. Any recommendations here in terms of the three listed above?Any other recommendations...

    The Migration is ON!

    Cormorants are here in force. Have yet to see or hear much for cranes in W SD. Seems like it is getting later and later that they move through. I'd bargain that the calendar birds have shifted too. I've seen literally 10's of thousands of specks in Canada way later than I ever would have...

    How's the fall bite?

    Glad to see there are folks out enjoying this nice weather! With the pheasant openers coming up down here I will be off the water for a few weeks. Then hope to hit it hard till ice up. The weather coming next week could be interesting and should crash the water temps a bit. Looking like a...

    How's the fall bite?

    How's the fall bite for everyone so far? Not talking specifics, just generalities. It's been tough to call it fall with the temps. Water temps most places I've fished have been low 60's. The bite has been poor in most places, Oahe included for me recently. Hoping to get in a fair bit of...

    Gas or Electric

    I don't see them working here anytime soon for my needs. I also don't believe they are as "green" as they are made out to be, just the lithium alone is an environmental mess. Then add in producing electricity. When I last researched, the price of an electric charge on a Tesla was similar in...

    Bring out your dead!

    I found multiple good deer dead from assumed EHD in several areas of SD last year while bird hunting. If a spray could work, how would you reasonably cover all these areas? It ranged from a stock dam the size of a small swimming pool, a well defined creek, and a CRP field with the closest...

    waterfowl blind....NOT layout

    The biggest thing I can say about positioning an A Frame is shadows. Don't choose your orientation based on wind direction or how you want the birds to work. Setup so the birds see the least amount of shadow from the blind. You're about to shoot them any direction when you stand up, so long...

    Yep it will all depend on what the snowfall in the mountains is this coming year. 2012 seems so far away right now with water going over the spillways throughout the system.
