    Why do you reel left and right handed?

    I reel with the hand that's upcurrent. That way I set the hook with the rod instead of the reel handle. Saves on equipment malfunctions. I've broken a reel handle or two by yanking on it instead of the rod handle. Switching sides takes a minute or two to get used to, but in the end it's been...

    Top of the Morning!

    Bean harvest is over. Worked for 3 days with a cold. Felt like shrite the whole time. Bouncing in a tractor with a stuffed head isn't enjoyable. Feeling a bit better this morning, so with coffee, a bit of rest today, and a good weekend, I'll be back to my old, ugly, ornery self. Be Safe out...

    LEWT Tournament Winners BUSTED!

    The have to throw the book at them. Otherwise participation in tourneys will tank. It probably will anyway. The other thing is these guys personal safety. If they get a slap on the wrist, it might very well push some of those they betrayed to the point of seeking retribution. Not a good...

    Mornin'! Another beautiful morning with a slight breeze and the sun just rolling up over the ridge. The coffee is splendid for some reason this morning. Another day of harvest today. Been coughing up bean dust all night from yesterdays efforts. Seems no matter what side of the truck I'm on...

    Pheasants 2022

    Went out on Saturday. Bent a tie rod, cracked the oil pan, broke a head light, and snapped off the turn signal. Road hunting for pheasants just isn't what it used to be. Too many fences.

    Top of the Morning!

    Mornin' Gents! Cool and Crisp this morning at Fort KDM. Soybean harvest today for me and probably for the next day or two. Serious yard cleanup this week. I plan on snow by Nov 1. I know, poo poo on the "S" word, but it's a fact of where we are. Catching a piece of wire or a chunk of wood...

    Scammers

    My favs right now are the emails from Greta, Clara, Josefina, and others saying they are looking for a sweet, fun loving, and good looking guy to have fun with. I, of course have all but three of those traits, so I respond with a recent photo and ask when they are coming over? Crickets...

    Mornin'! A crisp 25 this morning with a hard frost on the grass. I don't think mama's flowers made it though last night. We were below freezing at midnight. Seems winter is a chompin' at the bit to get here this year. Fall harvest continues with smoking pork today and butchering a few...

    Top of the Morning!

    Mornin' Guys! Well, one hog turned into 3 so I would have enough pork to fill the smoker. Yesterday was butchering hogs, today is cutting them up, applying spices, and firing up the smoke house. Along with some odds and ends while I'm at it. Good Eats. Be Safe Fellas!

    Are high dollar lures worth it?

    Hungry fish don't care how much the lure costs. If the fish are active, they will hit a spark plug with the spark arm crushed down and a split ring added with a treble hook on it. I won a steak dinner by catching a limit of walleyes vertical jigging this exact setup. Most lures are there to...

    Top of the Morning!

    Mornin'! Got a busted truck, so off to the mechanic we go this morning. An nondescript hum and vibration in the front axle. Oh Joy! Then butchering a hog and maybe some chickens. Fall harvest is such a busy time. Be Safe Fellas!!

    Your strangest catch?

    The weirdest thing I've ever caught was MYSELF. Went to cast a rapala and the damn thing swung behind me and I caught my own arse. STUPID!!!!!
