    Deer hunting success

    Just running through my brain of 20 people I know who deer hunt most years, I'd say 6 or 8 will do whatever they can (hunt every free day, etc) to get a deer or just have really good land where it's almost guaranteed unless they're super picky and usually do fill out. Another 5 or 6 just go...

    Slow your ass down and pay attention!

    About 10 years ago I was going down river full throttle-ish (25-30 mph) and hit a stump, made me take an immediate probably 60 degree hard left as it jerked the tiller handle. I did not lose control of the handle and luckily there was no one nearby. I always think of that time when guys run...

    Little known gotcha's in life

    Never knew you could make a deposit on an ATM, always thought they were just for taking cash out...learn something new some days. What do you hate more, this situation or having banking information on your phone? Mobile deposit is awesome, just started using it about a year ago...very slick...

    Ryan Fontaine

    Very true...I've been fortunate in that no one in my immediate family has had much for emergency or odd medical needs but it seems anyone you talk to always rips on local hospitals. A little bit like the saying "an expert is just someone from out of town."

    Ryan Fontaine

    Know absolutely zero about the case but I'm sure if his family wanted the details in the news, they would be as they are starving for stories like this. Or is the story all over social media (I don't follow that much)? Other than that, what can be done? They could call the hospital but...

    anyone care to hazard a guess....

    Any idea why they don't have the second dock in? I don't fish Htown a lot but seems like it usually is? Would make things a lot easier...

    Big Muddy Tournament Date

    It's an interesting debate. Always interesting to see the leaderboards of the Reel & Rec tournament compared to the Big Muddy even though they are usually just separated by 2 or 3 weeks. Not really even comparable most years. Granted it's a less-serious tournament so the effort is no doubt...

    Fargo, West Fargo to issue 'stay at home' directive

    Being 90% of the country's population is already under one, it's probably 'legal enough.' Not saying I agree with it. I mentioned this a couple days ago in the Corona Virus thread...does it really change much? Have lots of family in MN and they've been under one for 2 weeks and I don't see...

    No paddle fish season, & tournaments canceled April & May

    Only potential would be saving big fish...doubt too many tourney guys are gonna keep 5+ pounders if they're fishing for fun. But nonetheless I'm of the camp that it's a drop in the bucket.

    Is now the time to stock up on ammo?

    Yep, I always have that in my mind too. I can see trying to get some if you are in danger of not having enough for the fall hunting seasons but what exact survival advantage will it be having 10000 rounds of .22 or .223 or any caliber for that matter? If things get that bad I don't think any...

    Minnows

    Can't imagine you would ever get dinged for it unless you are trying to sell them. I don't see an issue with it, especially in these days of ANS; don't really want just anybody trapping thousands of minnows and then distributing them all over a region.

    Spring snows

    What he said :) I wouldn't doubt there have actually been more people hunting them this year in the Dakotas with all of the college kids out of school, etc.

    Bow mount GPS/Depthfinder

    I should add that I'll probably be selling one of these in a couple weeks; works perfectly and I would be open to selling without the transducer if you are looking to use in a bow setup where you hook it up to a Minnkota. Upgraded to a networkable model. PM if interested.

    Bow mount GPS/Depthfinder

    Tough question to answer since everyone's fishing style is a little different. I use humminbird so I'm probably not much help and I'm a tiller guy and I rarely fish at the bow (put my buddies up there to pull the Terrova up and down :cool:) so I just put a helix 5 up there that pretty much just...

    Minnows

    You can keep a scoop of minnows alive a long time (at least 3-4 weeks) just in a gallon or two bucket if you keep them cool, no aerator needed. Change the water maybe once a week. I do it all the time, either keep them in the garage if it's not too cold to freeze them or in a fridge if it's...

    Non Resident license reduction time for fishing? hunting?

    Read on another site (in-depth outdoors) that ND has suspended the sale of NR fishing licenses. Not seeing it announced anywhere so assuming it's a rumor at this time?

    Spring Canada goose season

    I think the argument could easily be made to hunt them in the spring; just wrap it up by early April (we do hunt Turkeys during breeding season FWIW). Problem would be that many of the geese you'd be targeting would be geese that weren't going to stay here anyways and thus aren't the crop...

    Spring Canada goose season

    Big sticking point would also be that some of the migrating populations going to Canada are not doing as well so they wouldn't want harvest of those. I'd be in favor of a once-in-a-lifetime spring duck tag though. You get to shoot one duck of your choice in the spring once in your life...
