    Blue-green danger: Toxic algae warning in effect for Patterson Lake

    BG algae is nasty, nasty stuff. I did a lot of research on it for a dog column. Basically, if you wouldn't swim in the water, don't send the dog in. Pretty simple. - - - Updated - - - You'd be surprised how prevalent BG algae is. It's found worldwide. There are some southern states that...

    Handicapping fishing tourneys?

    But then you gotta think, did they get the boat and gear and THEN start winning tournaments, or did they just gradually move up from the Lund Rebel as their fishing prowess increased? Chicken or egg...

    Wisconsin really is full of chicken titty sprinklers

    Wow...four spaces at once. I believe that's Quadradouche status.

    Minnesota fishing lakes.

    I'm all ears as well, for I've heard of these fabled ND lakes, but I believe they're nothing more than whispers or phantasms...or they get fished out before the word has time to spread.

    Handicapping fishing tourneys?

    That's the best thing I ever heard. This could be the plot to a movie.

    Handicapping fishing tourneys?

    My bank account is indifferent to feelings and would wholeheartedly accept your winnings if you did, in fact, win because of a handicap. Food for though.

    Minnesota fishing lakes.

    Ottertail is a very nice place. Plus Zorbas is on the south end, which always makes for a fun time. I always have had the best luck pulling leaches or crawlers on the first breaks at first light or toward evening. You probably/might not catch limits, but you'll get a few in the boat. Sometimes...

    Wisconsin really is full of chicken titty sprinklers

    Hey, if that and weed are legalized, I'm opening the first combo franchise: Rub and a Roach. Or maybe throw in a gas station, and call it Kum-&-Grow? Double entrendras are punny.

    Governors Cup 2016

    IF anyone wants to get some hog clincher fish, just let me know and I'll send you GPS coordinates of where the stringers are hung.

    Minnesota fishing lakes.

    From my experience, this is the time of year when walleye fishing in the Detroit Lakes area gets hard. You're either fishing stupid deep, or focusing on the golden hour of the morning or evening. I do know some folks have success trolling crank baits at night, especially on Ottertail. I'm with...

    Wind Turbine Ordinance Bismarck

    Do you have a good south-facing roof? Why not solar? Probably cheaper, quieter, and a lot less maintenance/hassle than wind power.

    Damn Boat Motors

    I should clarify that the old gas was in MY boat. Before I installed the motor, I pumped as much of the old fuel out and then put in 10 gallons of fresh stuff. I'm sure he ran fresh gas. We took the motor off his boat and installed it on mine. He had a nice bass boat that he put a 70 Yamaha...

    Damn Boat Motors

    Can I check this by taking the air box off and just looking in the carbs while I pump the primer?

    Damn Boat Motors

    The previous owner had it running like a top when I picked it up. No hesitation. Went into and out of gear seamlessly. Idled like a dream. Said he slow idled with it for hours in the fall trolling for walleyes, and I believe him. Maybe I'm a sucker, but he's answered every text I've sent to him...

    Damn Boat Motors

    That seriously would be the height of irony if my fuel pump went out immediately after my carbs were actually fixed. Like, Karma owes me HUGE after this. I expect many, many limits of walleyes in my future or else I'm punching that bitch right in the cunt.

    Damn Boat Motors

    That's something I never considered. I'll definitely try that, too. To be clear, open completely would be the butterfly being pretty much perpendicular to its resting position, correct? - - - Updated - - - One other possible problem: I did notice I wasn't able to pump the bulb up completely...

    Wind Turbine Ordinance Bismarck

    Everything I've heard about wind turbines is they're notorious maintenance whores. Just ask the city of Moorhead. They have two towers, and one of them has been out of commission for darn near a year. Granted those are the big jobbies, so maybe smaller residential units aren't as bad.

    Damn Boat Motors

    Would that be amazing. Do the work on carbs and suddenly the fuel pump goes out at the same exact time. I'm going to try getting the carbs out again and really looking at the jets. I thought I cleaned them well, but maybe I missed something. If that still doesn't work, I might think about...

    Damn Boat Motors

    I spoke too soon. Took a half day Friday and brought my son fishing. Totally amped to get the boat in the water and hear that Johnson purr. Well, it started a lot easier, but still wouldn't idle. Low RPMs. Almost like the idle screw was set too low, but I never touched the thing when I did the...
