    Yeah be nice if the game and fish did it themselves with a 75/25 take where we get the 25% but then I'm sure there would be ten times as many people so it would never work.

    New Minnkota headquarters in Grand Forks project progressing

    Minkota definitely is great for fishing but primarily for bass, crappies and bluegills.

    Best way to do it. You or the guys your with ever keep the eggs? Your fish both probably had several thousand dollars in eggs in her at $25 an once. Not a caviar eater but would have to think a few guys must make it for themselves.

    Was this your first year? Must have been like the first i hunted standing rock where I spent weeks scouring for any thing I could find on where to go what expect then end up tagging out in less then two hours. Felt great to have big buck down but definitely felt a bit anti-climactic to be done...

    Alberta fires god for one thing

    Ended up with around ten crappies between the two of us and a couple eyes. I didn't fish all that much since still sore from surgery but my buddy switch one rod over to a lindy the last half hour and I think the longest it was out was maybe five minutes. Not sure how many eyes he got but it was...

    Giant Paddlefish

    Well since they already posted to official weight guessing seams a bit silly at this point. The first fish is a nice fish but it's definitely not where near as big as the last fish.

    Is it wrong

    Is it wrong enjoying watching Johnny manziel crash and burn in such an epic fashion. I guess it's the fact that he reminds me so much of the affluenza kid in TX. Folks have 50,000,000 and I guess he has never been told no before because he seems like he is trying to destroy his life on purpose...

    4 year study of tagged walleyes

    Except we don't have jack for smelt on this side over the last 15 years outside of winter apparently. Definitely agree that a fair chunk of the movement is due to forage availability but ours are almost exclusively warm water bait fish with crappie and white bass being a couple of the most...

    Big 3

    Unfortunately she's in my version of taxidermy purgatory. which means being relegated to a spare bedroom so it's extremely difficult to get an actual good shot of her since she's way too big for the space she's in. I had him turn her up and to the right to look more or less like she was sniffing...

    Painted Woods Creek question

    Yes. Never fished it there but have seen people many times below 83 fishing it. The game and fish stock it every few years if needed. It's a bit odd in that most of the time even though you may only be a mile or two from the river the fish can't get up there. If you go downstream there is a dam...

    Congratulations on your draw what unit are you in. I decided I wanted to hunt moose in ND sometime in my lifetime so switched to putting in for cow back in 01. Didn't draw for almost tens years since the odds were still often at 10 to 1 or more but finally got it. The hunt due to crazy hot...

    Snow Pack and Lake Sakakawea Levels

    Well watch the report zoops mentioned and get back to me the winter thing. I talked to the fisheries guys over the winter and he explained it to me and then saw it briefly mentioned a little ways into this video. I agree that I have no idea why it would hit oahe but not Jamestown but clearly it...

    Find an eddy because they hate curent and will stack up on the breakline. They can get to be a real pain in the ass when pitching jigs around bismarck some years. - - - Updated - - - Just looking on Google if I had a boat i would be about a mile downstream of the ramp on the east side. There...

    Snow Pack and Lake Sakakawea Levels

    The ones we see in the fish tend to be young of the year fish in the 2 to 2.5 inch range. Not sure about the 2013 time frame wasn't down there much that year so dont know where the mid sized ones were. Maybe with this year being such a short ice season more of last year's made it through but...
