    would you do this to save your dog?

    Pretty sure I'd have gone for the tail in the back and not the teeth, claws, and hind legs in the front. All I'd be is a distraction and then I'd run when the dog got loose. Wild animals don't understand "Uncle" when they fight.

    Ice reports

    Some of the smaller sloughs around here still have open water on them. Bigger sloughs are WIDE OPEN. When guys get itchy, guys make marginal decisions, and then guys leave widows. Let's be safe out there fellas. I don't want to read about anyone in the paper.

    Who's superstitious?

    I'm not superstitious, but I fished several times with a salt water Captain that was. He ABSOLUTELY would NOT allow bananas on his boat. Watch a standoff at 3am between him and a patron about the banana in the guys lunch. It was 400 bucks to fish on this guys boat and when the guy refused to...

    My Trifecta is Complete!!!!!

    HaHa!! I could put in an ad for blue num nums if it would make you feel better PrairieGhost. Srputz, I get giddy for Big 4's as well. My dream buck is a clean 4X4 that scores over 150. 2400, Actually, none of the bucks I've taken are very good table fare. Strong gamey taste and tough as...

    Small Food Plots for Deer

    Trax, as far as bushes and shrubs for deer, I would look at evergreens of some kind. Deciduous shrubs look great with leaves on them, but come winter they suck for thermal cover. Junipers make a good wall in a couple years and if you can add some pines on the outside it makes a nice pocket of...

    I'll ask my Dad on the paddle fish. There is quite a bit of preparation on those and we have to cut off as much of the flesh as possible. There is so much oil in those fish that we have to make provisions in the colony to keep the oil from contaminating the whole bedding complex for the...

    My Trifecta is Complete!!!!!

    I plan on having a triple pedestal mount done with my velvet buck on the bottom facing left, the Euro mount in the middle, and this buck on top facing right. Hope I can engineer the stand to hold all of that up. Stand By!! Should be 18 months to 2 years before I can get this part completed...

    My Trifecta is Complete!!!!!

    It's been an AWESOME deer season for me this year!! It started off with a full velvet buck with my bow and progressed to an average, but VERY memorable rifle buck. Here's the story: It was the Monday after the second weekend as I was hunting in MN with my 76 year old Uncle for the first week...

    Yep!! Boney fishes like northerns fall apart when the beetles eat the tissue between the bone plates and between the jaws. So.......there needs to be some reconstruction and puzzle putting together to get a finished product, which I will admit I'm NOT the best at. We tried a 20 lb northern...

    gst, the colony is self sustaining and as long as you keep giving them food and water, they can go on for as long as you want. Our colony is kept fed on a constant basis. If we don't have a skull to do, we put any meat we have. I saved a bunch of goose gizzards that we can use when skulls get...

    GSM, we didn't make the display. We ordered a couple to play around with. They aren't cheap, but it does make a Euro mount a bit more female friendly if you know what I mean. Pluckem, I don't get to Bismarck very often, but if you put the head in the freezer, it can wait until you get out...

    Before we started this thing I did a search of the ND Century Code and did not find a definition of taxidermy so I went with the commonly accepted definition which states taxidermy deals with stuffing the skins of animals, birds, or fish (Essentially all vertebrate critters) for preservation and...

    Glad you liked'em Kick. Now bring me that mulie. The beetles are hungry and all I've seen the last couple days is the Junior Varsity of bucks in my area. I think I could have shot every 1.5 or 2.5 yo buck in a 3 mile radius in the last 2 days. Probably fall outta the tree if a First String...

    Small Food Plots for Deer

    Winter Rye will grow darn near anywhere, including in the back of your truck without dirt. Just the dust in the corners will do. Best no till, rake in, spread and forget green stuff I know of. Scrape the top duff off with a hoe or something and spread it around. Add water and get out of the...

    Just a friendly reminder. We've done quite a few skulls now and those that dropped off heads seemed to be happy with the results. It's been fun dabbling in this hobby stuff. Some really attractive pieces have come out of just trying new things. Enjoy!! Here are some pics of what's going...

    Small Food Plots for Deer

    Most small plots of corn, soybeans, or other similar crops I've dealt with get mowed to the dirt unless they are fenced in or protected in some way. A doe and her two fawns can wipe a 50X50 plot of soybeans or corn in pretty short order and that's without the birds, squirrels, raccoons, mice...
