    Ever been shocked by Your grahite rod?

    It got very small! It never did strike again but the anticipation of one coming any second was shitty feeling.

    Ever been shocked by Your grahite rod?

    Sunday morning the wife and I put the boat in. Light showers passing thru but not too bad. No sooner rolled the boat into the water and a pretty hard lightning bolt went off. I tied the boat to the dock and we sat in the vehicle in the parking lot for awhile. 15 mins or so with not other strikes...

    Keeping minnows more than 1 day

    What do most of You do to keep minnows alive multiple days while camping and boat fishing. Its a pain in the ass to keep them alive at camp when the boat is out of the water. When its possible to camp on the shoreline I keep them in a bucket in the water. But its not always possible when your...

    Snow totals

    I don't know how anyone is going to be able to get an accurate new snow total. After the last 2 days it melted alot of old snow so I too thought maybe it wouldn't drift the old snow very much. My road was clean at noon. By 2:00 pm the wind was going at least 30 mph. Got home from work at 5 the...

    Increase in hawk and owl populations

    I have seen it happen many times over the years. Your sitting in the tractor doing fieldwork or making hay and the tractor flushes up an adult pheasant, and a hawk that was flying overhead swoops down and knocks it out of the air. If its that easy for them to take out adult birds i cant imagine...

    Pop-up vs Flip Style

    I started out with a couple different homemake wooden end with tarp for walls. They worked fine but too heavy to take out when your alone. Then I bought an eskimo quick flip 3 with a bench seat. I like it but there isnt much slope on the front of the sled part of it so if there is more than 3"...

    4 wheeler or snowmobile

    You could if You were 100% sure the ice was 7" thick all over the lake. Years ago I was fishing on a lake during early ice. I was fishing on 8"s of good ice but a warm spell had opened up open water about 150 yards from shore. It got cold again and the next weekend I read on fishing buddy a guy...

    Long range rifle targets

    So for several years now I have had hanging metal targets by the house that my family shoot the pistols at with much enjoyment. For years I have wanted to get a long range setup for rifle shooting set up but just have not got it done. Last weekend I finally did. I set them in 100 yard increments...

    remember when...

    As a youngster when we made homemade ice cream at thanksgiving or Christmas. Also grew up with a coal stove in the house so a lot of times woke up in the morning cold till we made a morning fire or it burning so hot you had to crack the windows in the dead of winter to keep from overheating.

    Ice electronics

    I just bought that soft sided blue case at scheels for $45, maybe Clam brand not sure. I bolted a square piece of 3/8" Poly type board material to the bottom of the bag to stiffen it up and i mounted my unit to that board. Buy the appropriate ice ducer for your unit and a battery. I don't think...

    Ice electronics

    You will like it. I got an ice kit for my 859 with lakemaster chip. I didnt care for the flasher mode on the humminbird, couldnt seem to get the flasher screen cleaned up enough to see what was actually going on so i use it in 2d mode. Only problem with the 7" screen is the battery wont last all...

    Jury duty

    Only time I was ever called i was picked to sit on a Federal case in Bismarck for one of the states bigger meth busts a couple years ago. At first I was really dreading it but once it got going it was alright. Very eye opening to hear witnesses recount how cars filled with meth were driven thru...
