    What is this fish?

    You ever got one of those 5-cent goldfish from the pet store and had it live long enough to grow more than a couple inches? Pretty sure they turn into that. In any case, it's of the carp family. Big scales. Dorsal fin that starts halfway back and goes close to the tail. Sucker/downturned mouth...

    YouTube Channels?

    Cool vid! That's basically been every single ice fishing experience I've had on North Dakota waters. I bring the bad mojo, apparently.

    Do you prefer to hunt alone?

    I like both. When game is plentiful, I especially enjoy going with others. Why not share the wealth? But when birds are harder to come by, I'd rather go alone. Not because I want to be greedy, but because I always feel bad asking a friend to go hunting and having to leave early before we get a...

    Wirehaired Griffon

    My wife also has pet allergies. She is not allergic to our German Wirehaired Pointers, however. May be a bit easier to find a reputable breeder (there are several I know of offhand in the state) who will have upcoming litters. Griffs aren't as easy to come by. Whichever breed you pick, please...

    Display of the American flag

    I'd just be happy that, in this day and age of butt hurt and political correctness, there's an American Flag hanging, period. Sad, but true.

    Favorite Kind of ice shelter

    I'm a weirdo. I have a flip over shappell that I use frequently, but my favorite is an old S2000 Shappell "2-man" suitcase style house. It's tiny. Have I fished two people in it? Yes. Is it practical? Hell no. But for portability in a vehicle and comfort on the ice, it's not a bad combo. I can...

    Weather Calls.........

    Looks like a doozy. My techs better drive safe.

    Dogs and fences/injuries

    Couple years ago Blitz sliced his ear on barbwire. You don't realize how much blood a 45-pound dog can loose until you've witnessed the results of a 3-4 inch slice on the ol ear flap. Only way we could stop it was to gob on ointment, wrap the ear in a sock and then duct tape it to his head...

    Ice fishing DIY/shack mods/equipment

    I have a real hankering to either build or buy a tip-down flag. At first I really wanted an iFish Pro, but after seeing it and holding it, just doesn't seem all that robust. Too much thin plastic and little pieces that could break or get misplaced. On the other hand, something as simple as a Rod...

    Gun season during the rut?

    With the amount of people who walk during gun season, it probably doesn't matter what time of year it is as far as deer movement is concerned. They'll still push properties, kick up deer and shoot them in the ass regardless of how horny they are....the deer, I mean.

    Underwater Camera decision

    I'm torn between the Marcum Recon and the Aqua-Vu AV715C. I see they're both the same price, but I do like that the Aqua-Vu has a beefier camera and cord. Seems like it would be a bit more stable in the water. I've used a few cameras in the past that I borrowed, and the lighter cameras seemed to...

    One tag system

    That's interesting...eastern ND is a pretty big chunk of area. Where I walk, I see probably a half dozen every fall. I even kicked up a young bull within a half hour of Fargo late last December while walking for pheasants. If anything, it seems like moose out here are becoming more of a norm...

    One tag system

    I know, personally, that three deer a year would be just right for my four-unit family. Last year I got two (one rifle buck and one archery doe) and the only reason I have three roasts left, two pounds of ground, and two packages of backstrap is because the moment I found out I didn't pull a...

    Ice Rod Case

    I'm kind of keen for those simple, three-rod cases with the bag on the end leading to a single PVC tube. I used to think I wanted a case to keep all my rods arranged, but now that I'm into the teens, it's not practical to lug around a couple giant plastic cases when tangles still occur. For me...

    Winter dog travel

    We got a second dog months before my firstborn came on the scene. Just happenstance, but it is what it is. I thought I could get by with kennel covers and my tonneau cover. Found out pretty quick that a topper is the way to go. I have side-access windows that can lift up as well as slide open...

    F'n Trespassers!!!

    I'd start trying to visit that land more often in the short term. My guess is they see you're not there very often (once every couple years by the sounds of it?) and figure it's free reign -- trespassing signs be damned. I'd make it a point to get out there every couple months minimum just to...

    Cyber Monday deals on ice fishing bibs

    Thorne Bros had some decent stuff.

    Flip over Ice shelters - which one?

    That's my exact house! I bought it because of the price tag and the fact that the poles don't extend. I really wanted to run wires for my LED light strips inside the poles, and based on experience I knew that extendable poles are a bad idea. Plus you can pack up literally in seconds. I added the...

    Theft of Property

    Yet more reason to go through private surgery centers and whatnot, when you can. I'm biased because my wife works at one, but sure seems like patience care and customer satisfaction is their top priority -- not just making a buck.

    Shooting Range Safety

    You talking the free one at Casselton? Yeah...I'd much rather pay for Horace that go to that deathtrap.
