    Turtle Mountains help needed

    Lake upsilon has some really nice bluegills, decent perch, and northerns. Campground at Lion's Park on east side with swimming beach although the campground is geared more towards campers than tents as there are few trees in the actual campground. For campers there are good pads to park your...

    pineapple on pizza???

    I believe everyone is entitled to their own tastes. For me fruit and vegetables do not belong on real pizza. In fact for real pizza it's a stretch to have any other meat than pepperoni and a good Italian sausage. Tomatoes in the sauce covers the needed veggies, cheese and either or both meats...

    Hunters Safety

    One of the constant issues with Hunter Safety is the shortage of instructors for the number of students. We are all hunters and fishermen(women) and summers and falls are busy for us as well. If you cannot find a class look into other options, dependent on the age of your sons. There are...

    Where were you born?

    Born in Devils Lake, long before anyone thought it was a good place to fish. Raised in Rock Lake, which at one time was a premiere snow goose hunting destination.

    Need Rain!!

    Not sure how this went from needing rain to blaming farmers for removing tree rows but I guess that's the nature of most discussions. I grew up on a farm that had several miles of tree rows. Lots of places on our farm there was a tree row every 40 rods or 1/8 of a mile. A whole bunch of 40 acre...

    Definition of "Giant" and "Monster"???

    I'm pretty much beyond treating the hunting and fishing shows like reality TV. I like shooting animals with big horns and big fish. However, I'm also at the age where the size does not determine the trophy. Fishing with grandkids and catching whatever is biting is the fun for me. Hunting with...

    Beached boat

    I don't know about dis but dat looks like one big party. In fact that looks like the type of party where clothes are going to come off. If I have plenty of fish in thee freezer I might choose dat over dis. Hell, maybe I could fit dis in the morning and dat in the afternoon. But then I'd be no...

    Roadkill blang#

    With mallards and the spring breeding season, I'm pretty sure "love" had very little to do with it.

    School 60 years ago

    Not legal everywhere but are legal in ND. With the extended cabs and 4-door pickups the convenience has gone away. Hard to reach when the gun in in the window of a 4 door pickup. You are correct about them being common in pickups parked at school years ago.

    School 60 years ago

    How has it changed? Read recently about a mother (I know it's dangerous to question how a mother should raise her children) went to the school board because the bus driver took his daily riders to the Dairy Queen on the last day of school. Heaven forbid the driver, who is responsible for these...

    Just made another SHORT LIST

    Congratulations from a former who has been in your shoes. Like all jobs I'm sure at times it's not all roses but the end result makes it worth it. A few students create challenges but so many good ones. What I really enjoyed was seeing former students become successful at jobs, raising their own...

    Homemade smoker help

    Don't forget the one benefit to smoking needing watching; allows for a few more beers. That alone increases the fun of smoking all the different meats. Dating myself but I wonder if there are any old coal stokers around. Had one when I was growing up and it was somehow operated with a...

    Smoking babyback ribs

    Pretty much what everyone else said except I'm not very fussy on time. I rub the night before and put them on the smoker. Time is irrelevant for me as I use chips and charcoal and try to keep the heat about 200-225. Not always easy as the outside air temp. can affect that so time is when they...

    Auto Inflating Life Jackets

    I have heard of falling out of the front when riding on the front pedestal. Most boats I have seen are clearly marked that the front seat is not to be used when traveling at higher rates of speed. Problem is that not everyone can read.

    What would you recommend?

    You have to be a bookkeeper like me. I don't count most of those items as fishing expenses because then it's easier to tell my wife it doesn't cost me much to fish now that I own the boat. She never notices that the trailer has new tires. The insurance is in with my homeowners so that doesn't...

    Porqupines

    BDub - I wouldn't recommend shooting a high-power rifle in the air like you would if you are shooting porcupines out of a tree. No problem shooting them, would prefer they be shot on the ground. DirtyMike - Correct you are. Often used in Dancing clothing by Native Americans as well as for other...

    What would you recommend?

    For me there are other considerations than the monthly cost of the payments. I do not spend anywhere close to $2000/summer on my boat. Occasionally there is an expense that needs to be paid but I don't average that amount. Then again I'm not traveling 100 miles every weekend to fish. I don't...

    Which bullet

    Moose are a big animal. However, in my experience seeing quite a few shot over the years I don't find them to be particularly tough. You get a bullet in the body and they aren't going to go very far without giving you another shot. Elk may be a hard to kill animal if your first shot isn't where...

    Zebra Mussel Sniffing Dogs in MN

    Sorry, I need some clarification. Are we talking redheads like in the duck or redheads like "Ginger from 'Gilligan't Island'?"
