    Favorite fish to eat

    Walleyes are flavorless, just the smell of a northern frying produces a gag reflex, and every perch I've ever cut open had parasites. I'll go with tuna.

    vikes vs. broncos

    Broncos blow out. The Vikings defense will tire too early, this team is always unprepared for road games and the higher altitude won't help them, and teddy has no arm. It might be close for a quarter.

    Florida

    Only charter I've used in that area was the sea leveler out of canaveral, during the 500 speed week in February. Caught a bunch of mackerel at the time, saw a giant manta ray surface, and it ran the two of us around 600 for the morning.

    Jacked

    Couple weeks ago I was in Vegas, being a scifi fan I decided to drive out to Rachel. Along the way, without using a map, I found the unmarked groom lake road. Drove down it for 15 miles, free range cattle everywhere. Made it to the border of Area 51, took some pictures, waved at the man sitting...

    Vikings game

    8 first rounders in 4 years and they are still worse than a middle of the road team? Sure glad they've stuck it out with spielman. I imagine when he puts a jigsaw puzzle together, a rather large sledge hammer is used.

    256...

    I don't know why having extra points at the 15 yd line bothers me, it just does. I think it brings back terrible memories of another sport that couldn't go 5 minutes without rewriting it's "rule book" and eventually drove 60% of their fans away due to needless gimmicks.

    No UND/North Dakota option on UND nickname ballot with update on voting process

    This nanny state bullcrap has to end. Anyone sending in a properly marked ballot is a PoS! Either write in fighting Sioux, drunks, UND, NCAA tards, or mark every name and write underneath "they all seem gay" etc. But giving these people thousands of legitimate votes will only stroke their egos...

    Worst food I've had in a while

    it is best to avoid steak and chicken at these restaurants. Hard to find a cook in German country that doesn't over cook a steak, and chicken breasts are usually precooked, then microwaved when ordered.

    My 401k hurts

    we made a deal with Iran, Israel is upset, and suddenly the markets are in free fall. Oil just happened to be oversupplied as talks began. Economic terrorism is all it is.

    When do you call it a summer-

    August 21st apparently, this was the greyest, most depressing, waste of a summer day so far this year.

    ice auger

    Bought a mako 5 years ago, the three times a year I get the urge to lose feeling in the lower half, I just dump a fresh mix of fuel and it starts.

    Golfers

    Gave it up after buying a boat. If the weather is good for golfing, it is better to fish. Likewise if it is too windy or wet to fish, golfing is also out of the question. Also golfing requires at least a second person, unless you're just hitting the driving range. A second person makes for a...

    When do you call it a summer-

    The weather always seems to fall apart after Labor Day. Plus the sun is setting before 8:30, which means it is dark before 9. A couple weeks later the Canadian air mass starts making it's way south, the smell and bite in the air is just depressing, because you know summer weather is done and not...

    15 eaters from 7:00pm to 8:30 near the embankment. Front went through, dropped the temp 20 degrees and the walleyes went into piranha mode.

    Driving in the left lane

    Illinois passed a law, but I don't remember North Dakota doing so. Left lane pace cars are only a step above no passing zone pilot cars that see 6s as 5s. Just remember, there is no law against passing on the right. I still have high blood pressure arguing with a coworker who refused to pass...

    Dick's Sporting Goods in Bismarck

    but you missed out on the 7 fishing rods and 8 fishing reels, and one aisle of bass fishing gear, and the boxes of 12 gauge target shells. And the CROSSBOW!

    Dick's Sporting Goods in Bismarck

    Far cry from the mythical scheels killer rumors I've been hearing since early 2000. Really disappointing, actually. I'll wait and see how they handle Black Friday, otherwise I don't see myself ever going back. For one thing the floor space is way too small and their fishing selection is dwarfed...

    Dick's Sporting Goods in Bismarck

    I really want a bass pro, they usually stock the right gear for the area. The Indiana location has mostly salmon and walleye gear, the south east is usually bass and saltwater, Vegas has cheap clothes, and the one in council bluffs made the mistake of building in a nanny state.

    Vikings (10 wins)

    7-9 or 8-8, it all comes down to beating sf, if they lose, I could see them not winning until Oakland.

    This will be the last Sunday without......

    Depressing that we are in the final stretch of summer. The sun is setting earlier, the grass is browning out, kids are going back to school in a few weeks, and soon there will be a fall bite in the air. Wasn't a bad summer, temps were relatively mild, the lake thawed a couple weeks earlier than...
