    Dont text and boat

    I'm guessing this in one of those stupid fake emails that goes around to prove some kind of point - like "see how dumb the young people are today because they would rather text than fish." Are we suppose to believe a boat could drive onto another boat like this with minimal damage, not to...

    Advice needed on trolling motor battery

    I'm looking at the Everstart 29DC from Walmart with about 110 amp hours. I'm not super concerned about weight (but don't want extremely heavy) because I actually need weight in the front of the canoe most of the time to help steer easier.

    Advice needed on trolling motor battery

    I have a 55 lb thrust minkotta trolling motor that I will be using on a canoe. What would you guys suggest for the size of battery, specifically how many amp hours minimum should I buy? I don't use it that often but when I do, the trolling motor would get used fairly hard as the main source of...

    Whats up with these damn storms...

    I live in Horizon Heights. Very windy but trampoline stayed put (it has three hold down straps with three foot anchors). I saw one tree fell on a house on Estevan Drive.

    Storm 6/17

    I live about 2 blocks west of Horizon and I didnt find any damage to my vinyl siding. I'll have to check closer I guess. My awesome tomato plants were destroyed though. Glad I'm not a farmer. I really hate it when a handful of plants gets destroyed. I wouldn't be able to sleep if my income...

    Allowed to shame people on here?

    I agree. I fish the river around Bismarck all the time and rarely have problems with other people even if there is dozens of boats in an area.

    How much do I tip the dock crew when renting a houseboat.

    We rented a houseboat on Rainy Lake a number of years back and rent cabins in MN pretty much every year. I can't say I've experienced any negativity from people in Minnesota against outsiders. They have all been pretty nice. I wonder how many MN and WI residence that come to fish and hunt in...

    Building a new house

    Make sure you have plenty of outlets in the garage. I can't believe how many newer houses in our neighborhood (including mine) have only a couple of outlets in the garage. Also put in vents in your closet if possible. Keeps them fresher.

    The SPAWN!

    I disagree. Give up your killing grounds. The more dead the better.

    Drift socks

    I didn't know anybody still used those. I never liked using them. Trolling motor works better.

    Jokes in the boat.

    We were fishing in the Heart River one year and even though we stayed a long distance from the shore fishermen I still managed to catch one of their lines on my jig. The shore fisherman didn't notice that I had caught his line so I tell the guys in the boat to "watch this." I yanked the shore...

    Potty training puppies

    We had a small dog that took awhile to learn how to potty train. What worked well is we put her into a kennel at all times unless she went potty outside. Then we let her run around the house for an hour or two before we took her outside to go potty again. If she went potty we let her run...

    Worst tasting fish

    I'm surprised by some of the responses. The biggest reason a fish tastes bad is from the water it is caught in or more specifically the environment in the water that it lives in. A salmon from Sakakawea tastes like crap but one from the ocean is one of the best tasting sushi you can get. A...

    Getting the "SNIP"

    johnr, I'm sure you know this, but it's not like you get your nuts cut off. It's a really simple procedure with little risk. Not sure why you make it sound like you will become impotent or lose bladder control. Even though a guy can't get pregnant, he's still got to support any baby he...

    Cabin suggestions in Montana

    For a family vacation we have always rented a cabin on lakes in Minnesota. We were thinking of trying something different this year. Does anybody have any suggestions for cabins in Montana? We would like something in the mountains with a lake or river for quick access to fishing. Anybody have...

    Painted Woods Creek question

    Is there any fish in Painted Woods Creek near Washburn? I see an area to park and launch a small boat but I never see anybody fish it.

    Abuse

    I have a 1960's remington 6mm that shoots really nice. Taken a lot of deer. Not sure if it's ever been cleaned. My name is fly2cast. I'm a gun abuser.

    Panhandling....

    People like your uncle do need help from us, and we should try to help them. Unfortunately it is so hard to know who is a true bum and those who have real mental issues. Mental health advocates need to start blaming the bums for taking all of the resources that would go to help people with...

    Panhandling....

    I agree. It pisses me off that people should have the balls to sit on their asses for hours at a time begging for money rather than work during that time. They ask me to give them money so they don't have to work when I work two jobs to support my four children. I do wish people would quit...

    South of Grano

    I don't know much about the area you are talking about but could the holes be fish nests from previous years?
