    160,000 Salmon escape

    gst, None of those are the pheasant's fault. The shitty assed people with firearms would be chasing grouse, or the other introduced bird (Huns) if the pheasant weren't there.

    Cell phones save the day...Twice

    My gauges work reasonably well. Both floaters hold 35 gallons and since I don't like being restricted as to where my whims may take me, if she's anywhere near 1/2 of a tank...I fill up when getting bait, etc. I haven't yet had to use the Reserve feature on any of my floaters and I aim to keep...

    160,000 Salmon escape

    Are you aware of any unintended consequences to the pheasant being brought to America by the Chinese immigrants? Because while there probably are some issues, I am not personally aware of them. Asian carp though have some really bad consequences. - - - Updated - - - Yep, as a rancher I am...

    Cell phones save the day...Twice

    It's good to know others in the area, that is for sure. I remember the late 70s and early 80s on Sak where if you went out and had boat trouble, there were a lot of days you would simply end up on whatever shore the wind blew you to. You could go hours without seeing another boat on week days...

    160,000 Salmon escape

    Let's remember that the Asian carp came to us via catfish farms. The carp were used to help keep the vegetation in the catfish pens under control and they were released during Missouri/Mississippi river floods. I, for one, am not a big fan of using foreign species for such purposes.

    The question I have is how to handle the now once a week calls I get that lists the state and number on my cell. If it's out of state, I don't answer 98% of the time. But if it's in-state, I will usually answer even if I don't recognize the number. And then there's nobody there. The...

    Garrison Dam release / river level ?

    On the 13th they are planning on being at a release of 20,000 CFS. That should be roughly equal to a stage of around 5.3 ft once a person adds in a little bankflow and water from the Knife, etc. So about 3.2 ft difference from today as the river currently reads 8.54 ft in Bismarck. Yeah...

    I don't know if "sell" is the correct word, but yes...they certainly do have to give it up if requested. And they may be allowed to charge for the time spent compiling it. Last thing I would want is for our State employees to be working on tasks on the taxpayer dime for the benefit of a...

    Archery season starts tomorrow!!

    After the way the skeeter population surged at my place over the past week, I think I'll continue to lay low until December. I much prefer cool weather archery. Maybe I'll get out a time or two in October, but I ain't betting on it.

    The issue here is that when you go to a business, let's say Runnings, Tractor Supply, Lowes, or Mac's Hardware...to name just a few. They all ask you for your phone number and/or zipcode. I am not saying every company then turns around and passes your phone number on to "partners", but enough...

    Type of spider?

    I love this time of year when the dew in the grass lets a person know just how damn many funnel web spiders there are in the yard. It's amazing!

    Type of spider?

    Stick around long enough and you'll probably hear all sorts of things you forgot, or never knew. Thankfully, it's usually concomitant with some humor.

    Garrison Dam release / river level ?

    https://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwisweb/get_ratings?site_no=06342500&file_type=exsa Current stage/discharge rating for Bismarck. Ignore the number in the middle, that is the current shift from the long-standing equation for the site.

    Prairie legacy wilderness

    Not quite. My point is simply that the forests were here before us, and they will probably be here (come back???) after us. Why do we always have to try to manipulate things to fit into our own myopic view of how they should be? I have never understood the mentality of "My God this place is...

    I wonder who logged these areas and fought the fires before the white dude came upon the scene?
