    Superbowl Sunday was the answer

    Well I did have one wake me up from a little miday nap the other day. At first I was irritated at whoever the punk was that had the truck with the big pipes and then it dawned on me that wasn't a truck it was a Harley. So I smilled and went back to sleep. The sweet sounds of spring of migrating...

    Superbowl Sunday was the answer

    She's actually making a bit of ice this morning and jamming it up South of Expressway. This little cold snap is going to make it take a bit longer to get Bismarck cleared all the way out but not much.

    Some bad ice

    Don't necessarily have to stay off...just the vehicles do. Falling through on foot isn't all that dangerous in its self as long as you don't panic and its not wicked cold out. As long as you have some ice spikes and hopefully a few other people in the area a guy get out fairly fast. Growing up...

    I see they dropped a bunch of vehicles through in Wi when they parked them all in one spot on a lake... that's a total genius move right about now!;:;badidea

    NDGF to give out free tags for auction.

    And which one of these organizations has access to large donors to keep getting top doller for the sheep tag. This is the first time I've seen it listed that less then 100% came back in a year. The standard has been 100% plus $25,000. To date since 1986 when the auction started the state has...

    World Record Alligator Gar

    There are lots and lots of them in the river. Don't see them much when I'm fishing but as soon as you switch up to carp hunting with a bow they are one of the most common fish you will see. The gar here don't get vary big...maybe three feet and as big around as a coke can. Also see allot of them...

    Superbowl Sunday was the answer

    Well the question was asked around a week ago when the river would break up in Bismarck... well today Superbowl Sunday is the answer. She is in full break up mode in town right now and places like double ditch are wide open bank to bank. With some quite impressive waves I might add! So hopefully...

    World Record Alligator Gar

    The key with gar is they need to swallow the hook or you screwed to much bone in their mouths. If they could be hooked easily in the mouth guys around here would be shocked how many hit their lines well chasing walleyes on the river. Problem is they grab the bait then hold it in there mouths for...

    Some bad ice

    Yeah I was pretty sure it was that spot as well. Shallow water is asking for trouble in years like this. Most guys call them springs but like you said its normally just water getting heated by the dark bottom and rising and eating the ice from below. One of the big reasons why Audubon can be...

    Fishing tomorrow?

    I will be doing the same just with the long rod. Not worried about any of the lakes I fish. Well atleast on foot or ATV at least. But feel like throwing my little 8 foot bass boat in the truck and hit up some open water slabs and bass.

    Yeah we are going to have to move north and east to find good ice soon. That 53 with high winds is going to do allot of damage to our already shitty ice!

    Winter Walleyes

    The closer to midday the deeper I try to be. When we get into the last couple hours before sundown I try to move over to the closest steep break line between the deep basin and the shallow flat the eyes will be heading for. If its warm enough to be outside to fish without the house I will...

    Obama seeks $10-a-barrel oil tax for clean transport

    Probably not. The one thing they have made clear is this is not a tax at the wellhead. So taking that statement into account and knowing the love affair the dems have with taxing anything they can my guess is they want to tax all new oil including the stuff that arrives by pipeline or boat...

    Obama seeks $10-a-barrel oil tax for clean transport

    OPEC would hate it. All it would do is cause a net nagitive reaction on gas consumption. Now it's impact would be small but it still would hurt their already weak oil market. They want everyone to burn more oil not less!
