    Ice Fishing MYTHS that never die.

    BP338 Allen is correct, ice bridging can occur when water levels drop after the body of water has frozen. Asked a gentleman in Leadville Colorado about ice fishing the mountain lakes. His response was no way. The lakes are used to supply the city of Denver drinking water. He told me if they pull...

    Oak Flooring Question

    Thanks gentleman, Some of the homes I looked at had repaired flooring that would not be up to my usual standards. I am curious as to why the floors were installed in this fashion, more labor/time to install, more fasteners per square foot, so overall higher cost per square foot. Wirehair, maple...

    Oak Flooring Question

    Looking at homes built in the 40-50's. I have never seen narrow (1 1/2" wide) flooring. Can not tell if this is tongue and groove like 3" - 3 1/2" boards. Some homes have repaired these floors with boards nailed from top of board instead of side toenailed. Any of our resident experts have any...

    How to preserve hunting when all land is posted

    Before moving to ND, everywhere I have hunted was by landowner permission. If you were stopped by G&F while hunting around private land you had better have that written permission or you were facing fines. Did this prevent me from hunting, no. I made some wonderful friendships from this. As to...

    Quagga Eradication

    That is my understanding as well. It does improve on the other methods currently used. For a localized infestation caught early or a small lake it may be the trick to preventing further spread in the near term.

    Quagga Eradication

    I hope NDGF is aware of this. Michigan eradicated 95% of mussels on a reef in Lake Michigan. This might be an answer to the zebra mussel problem in the eastern lakes. https://invasivemusselcollaborative.net/research-and-projects/imc-pilot-project/

    8 Tracks, almost blew oatmeal through my nose. They were the worst, jumping between tracks, tape getting screwed up.

    Vinyl records

    Did not see the special. Have digital music for listening at work and at home when working. When relaxing and want to enjoy music, vinyl can be hard to beat. It has a "warmer sound". This was really apparent with Meatloaf's Bat Out Of Hell Album. Have both vinyl and digital. They sound very...

    Carpentry question?

    Bi fold doors are an inexpensive option. They have some drawbacks though. First they do not seal, so dust and pests might be a problem. Second, the way they open and close they have a t3endency to jump the track. The pivot points also can require adjustments as they work loose. Sliding doors...

    Depth finder for kayak

    Trolling motor for kayak, here in ND that makes it a powered vessel and must be registered. Paddle or pedal and registration is not necessary. The other issue now becomes weight. A trolling motor probably will double the weight of a kayak. I find I like the portability of kayaks. Sand bar in the...

    Honkerslayer, looks like a nice rig. At 34" it should be plenty stable. Are you going pedal or paddle?

    Depth finder for kayak

    What type of kayak are you looking to mount this on? Is it a sit in or sit on? I have a sit on and it has a place to mount the transducer under the kayak. I put a simple Lowrance 3" on mine. I only need to see the bottom contours. Look at how much power the sonar will require. Carrying a heavy...

    Goodyear doesnt matter

    I provided the link to the article I pulled the quote from. If you have further questions follow that link or contact Goodyear tire company. At least I provide reference to where I sourced my information for those who wish to delve deeper.

    Goodyear doesnt matter

    Lunker, so if I understand you, equality is not a social issue but a political issue only pushed by the liberals, so you believe this country should not have equality? The company's policy is no political attire. Do you feel MAGA attire is not political? It was his campaign's authorized gear...

    Goodyear doesnt matter

    On Wednesday, following the president’s Tweet, Goodyear said a slide shown in the Kansas television news report was not from or distributed by the corporation and was not part of employee training. “To be clear on our longstanding corporate policy, Goodyear has zero tolerance for any forms of...
