    north gate dam bluegills

    Do your worst! Brewer has sustained continuous abuse for decades. It's also a full blown Hillbilly Riviera - you and your band of gypsies will fit right in. - - - Updated - - - https://gf.nd.gov/gnf/maps/fishing/lakecontours/northgate2020.pdf

    north gate dam bluegills

    You'd think that wouldn't ya? But Brewer near Fargo takes a continuous pounding and keeps on pumping out bluegills. (125 acres vs Northgate's 158 acres)

    Crappie is sorta crappy

    I think I read an article by NDGF that spoke of the difficulty of stocking crappie because everything likes to eat small crappie

    Crappie is sorta crappy

    They always taste fine - they're just very tender - to the point of mashed potatoes at times.

    Crappie is sorta crappy

    They’re awfully fun to fish for and I’ve got them figured out pretty well. It’s tragic that they’re not better fare.

    Crappie is sorta crappy

    No - even ice fishing. MN and ND. - - - Updated - - - It’s difficult to pick up a fried crappie filet without it crumbling apart. Maybe mushy is wrong word. Tender to the point of ridiculousness is maybe better. Ha ha.

    Crappie is sorta crappy

    I can't get over how soft and "mushy" crappie is compared to bluegill, perch, walleye. I know that crappie is very popular with some folks - but that surprises me because of their texture. Is there a preparation technique that somehow gets past this soft texture issue? Maybe a lime juice soak...

    Same with my XI5. Why chance it? I had an old MK that twisted a cable off. Pissed me off pretty bad. One of the reasons I jumped to MG.

    Tinnitus

    Wow - I guess did something right in my youth. I wore ear plugs for any loud noise activity - when they were a dorky accessory and others just shrugged them off. I couldn't figure out why when I saw people not caring about wearing them. Seemed pretty important for some reason. I feel awful...
