    Spring time fishing question

    You should train your Mexican Vanilla bees to deposit softener salt to keep the water from freezing and then remove the chunks after they absorb the water.

    Temple Fork (Gary Loomis)

    Have 1ea of the GTS 7' ML casting and spinning rods that I use for casting cranks. They've been my "go-to" rods for that purpose for 3-4 seasons. I know I'm jinxing, but, I haven't broken either yet despite my rather rough treatment regarding getting un-snagged as well as lifting fish into the...

    Spring time fishing question

    If it's not busy at the ramp, pull just out of the water, drop the motor, pull the plugs and wait until the dripping stops. If the ramp is busy, do the same on the 1st place you can find to pull over with the boat pointed uphill. The problem is when any housing (engine, pump, etc) is FULL of...

    I'm not advocating for any less guides or fishermen. If guides area already documenting clients and catches though, it'd be plenty simple for them to snap a pic and text or e-mail that to G&F biologists. I would think it'd be a more consistent data set than what they currently get from weekend...

    Hooch, booze, shine, etc

    Did the field-corn shine blind him or are you just throwing out the blindness factoid for the group to ponder?

    Sounds like there's plenty of data available to fisheries folks then if they'd just ask for it.

    I'm not saying the lake is getting fished out, not by a long shot. I'm saying there are folks on the lake daily that could provide fisheries biologists exponentially more data than they're collecting via current data collection methods. Plus, imagine the advertising opportunity for the guides...

    Finding open water

    Stay on the USA side of the river is probably the biggest thing someone who's never been there needs to know. Stray onto the Canada side and get checked/caught and it WILL ruin your trip and be an enormous pain in the backside. None of the folks from either USA nor Canada who are charged with...

    Serious question, not trying to sound "snippy". I haven't ever looked for the info, so, as a shortcut, can you give some examples or do you have an information source for guides/sq mi? Is there any info regarding guiding days/yr or # of clients/guide? I bet the fisheries biologists and...

    Pistol Hunting

    I don't have anything bigger than a 6" .357 magnum. I dip the muzzle of my S&W 41 and my ?7.5" SuperMatic Trophy with a friggin BRAKE! When I was ~10-11, I used to shoot dad's nickel 4" S&W 19 or 586 (can't recall which) w/very light-loaded wadcutters. So, one day we're out looking for live...

    Pistol Hunting

    It doesn't appear that I'll ever cure my flinch with a handgun. It's comical to watch it's so bad.

    tapping boxelder trees

    I wonder what the response would be if someone called in, "I think my neighbor is concentrating Curare, I'm afraid we're going to have a Serpent and the Rainbow situation here soon."

    New home ideas

    Whatever they initially put in the garage for lights and outlets, double it. I'd put a minimum of 2 outlets in the ceiling w/self retracting extension cords coming down. Put the outlets @ 54"+, keeps them out of the way of any 4' tall objects set up against the wall.
