    Fined for shed hunting

    I am guessing he got slapped hard because he was doing it as a business. It said at the end of the article that he was selling the antlers as dog chews. Whenever you get busted breaking the law in an effort to make a buck, the penalties seem to go up. And I don't necessarily disagree with that.

    380 for CC

    Hah hah hah, so it would appear I had a more "normal" childhood than I was led to believe. What on God's green Earth is a "Works" bomb? - - - Updated - - - Ah, found it.

    The Holy Boat

    So you have a hole in the bottom of your boat that you need to plug every time you need to go somewhere. I have a sinking feeling about the safety of such a watercraft. Besides the safety aspect, I would have to imagine that the "holes" in the bottom of the hull are not nice and smooth with...

    380 for CC

    I was like 10 or 11 and bored, but had just learned the definition of rimfire. Yeah, I was pointing the vicegrip in the general direction of the light and just never really thought I'd hit it. Once I did, the party was over. Fricking lucky I never shot myself when using the hammer.

    Spinning reel

    Ok...fine, I'll reword it. Even a blind pig finds an acorn every now and then.

    Burke County Wind Farm Denied

    Yep, the Emmons/Burleigh county set of wind turbines (note, they actually are not windmills since they don't mill anything) faced stiff resistance and is now going elsewhere.

    Hello from Carl

    There are always pockets of good habitat that will hold a great trip's worth of birds. The trouble with that is 1. Finding that pocket, 2. Figuring out how to get access to it, not like there won't be a long list of landowner's friends and relatives ahead of you.

    Lund vs nitro

    Yeah, I think we are all susceptible to brand preferences based on a few bad experiences. Take me for example, I've never owned a Dodge and yet because I have had friends who did and I've had to drive some for work over the years, no auto manufacturer is responsible for more miles on my boots...

    Lund vs nitro

    Last year they had Honda and ???? motor options on the Build a Lund section of Lund's webpage. I see they have now replaced it with a "no motor" option, which means you can order the boat and have a dealer put a motor on it. I'm guessing there's a bit of a premium involved with going this...

    Flood waters

    Yeah, with Sak up in its Exclusive Flood Control Zone, the Missouri near Williston is really easy to push above flood stage. It sure looks like the Yellowstone is in a freefall out by Billings over the coming days, so that will help a bit, but the real problem is Sak. Sak is at 1851 now and...

    Spun hub repair?

    I'm hazarding a guess this is not for a universal prop with a motor specific hub insert. Rather, it's probably for a specific to one manufacturer prop with a rubber hub. Personally, I've never spun one either but I believe they have to be pressed into place.

    Zebra Mussels Discovered in Lake Ashtabula

    Not quite. Rather, someone (this was about 12 years ago) placed a mason jar of water on the steps of some MT DNR or USFWS office step with a cryptic note. In testing the jar it was found to have zebra mussel veligers in it. Nobody then knew if it was intended to be some kind of eco terrorism...

    Sheepshead fish.

    Yeah, I've been guilty of that. A number of years ago I ran into a group not from around here that were cleaning a large mess of "white bass". They looked amazingly just like goldeye to me, but they were so tickled with their success that day that I just couldn't break the news to them.

    Who is the baitcaster master????

    My 11 year old daughter turned out to be a natural with one. Given my own skills, I was kinda :;:huh.... I guess I am ok with them so long as I'm using a heavy enough jig/lure, there's a knob on them that let's you tune the reel to the weight of the lure being used. Sorry, I'm not much help here.

    Sheepshead fish.

    Back in the 80s, we commercially fished Sak and Audubon, drum were one of the premium non-game species we were allowed to keep and sell. They were worth more per pound than anything else we kept other than catfish. We also sold goldeye, carp, buffalo, and pretty much anything back then that...

    Is the like button connected to Facebook?

    Not that I'm aware of, but there is a feature on this page that brings threads to my attention on FB. It doesn't seem to know who I am though as far as my FB account and NDA account. Perhaps Vollmer can clarify this a little, because while I use FB...I'm not a fan of it.

    Backpack found at Heneger Landing

    I don't care what Vollmer says about you, you are alright in my book.
