    Wyoming Mule Deer

    As a SD resident I'd rather see the money go to quality habitat. More impact there. There aren't many in our GFP that love the program as they don't feel it is cost effective. WY mule deer are in a tough spot. Habitat is becoming more fragmented. Winters have knocked them down...

    How far is too far?

    The other thing that bothers me a bit is the attitude that the type of critter matters in this discussion. Wound a coyote at 1500? Whatever. Three whitetail does? Not a big deal. But wound a big elk and people get pissed. I hold them in the same regard when it comes to trying to make a...

    How far is too far?

    I see this point but struggle with it. Mother Nature is a b word but I feel there is a stark difference is us a predators and a coyote. Watching as deer get eaten alive in a weakened state isn’t fun. Worse when my bullet put them in that state. We all make bad shots at some point and have...

    Lawsuit-archery-price fixing

    Surprised they think they can win. Folks are still buying them even with the stupid prices. Service is still the biggest thing. Going in, getting fitted up, help with tuning, etc are all huge parts of the archery sale process that can’t be provided via online retailers. Seems there is some...

    How far is too far?

    https://cowboystatedaily.com/2025/06/06/lawmakers-ponder-what-if-anything-can-be-done-to-regulate-extreme-range-hunting/ Good read from Cowboy State Daily on some of the challenges WY is seeing with ultra long range hunting. I’m a short range hunter but each to their own. Unfortunately I know...

    New ice fishing stuff

    Some days it’s nice to just setup and fish. I love the run and fun but it’s far more relaxing and comfortable in the hub. And some days the bite rolls in and out all day long.

    New ice fishing stuff

    A couple of buckshots, jigging raps, and a chubby darter is about all I use. Have boxes full yet lol. Eskimo hub stuff looks good.

    Canada Smoke

    Who are we suing first, Montana or Wyoming? They need to get more folks out in the forests with chainsaws and rakes to handle this crap. Skies have been red morning and night around here.

    24 volt Strikemaster power hea

    I agree the K Drill bites harder than the lite flite from what I’ve seen. That could cause issues as it isn’t hard to overload the 24v and kick it off.

    Zebra Mussels Discovered in Twin Lakes

    Never seen zebra mussels like there are in Lake Sharpe right now. From shore you can grab handfuls and in some areas you don’t want your lures to touch bottom. The Corp is going to figure out how they affect their power plant very soon.

    KWO - Hoyer and Siemens

    Listened to Bigwater Fishing podcast and they said after Icast hard baits sales were way down. Ffs baits up some obviously. Amazing to me to old pros who have been to all these lakes many times get their asses handed to them by beer guys who mastered ffs.

    Sharp-tails/ MT

    In the old days of crappy west side corn, we killed piles of them in armpit high corn. Alfalfa too. The tops of hills on windy days. Shady bushes on the hot days. And pass shot them into flowers too. The variety makes it fun.

    Sharp-tails/ MT

    I’ve seen lots this year. Used to hunt them a lot in Sept and it’s like shooting fish in a barrel. Late season can get tougher. Seen thousands deer hunting around flowers. Silly awesome birds.

    Canada Smoke

    Angry? Sue someone, it’s the American way. Seriously, these fires are natural. Have we made it worse with full suppression efforts? Yes. Has banned logging hurt us? I don’t think so in most cases. Many of these fires are in areas that just aren’t economically feasible to log. Heck, the...

    Smoked Tomatoes

    You ever try this? Curious.

    Canada Smoke

    Early in the year it was Canada. Now, ID, OR, and WA are culprits. The smoke map shows it well. Call it whatever you want, but fires are more prevalent and we’re right in the jet stream.

    Montana state record Chinook

    I’d argue the Oahe salmon fishing is very similar to Sak in terms or numbers and quality. Tough bite most of the time.

    Montana state record Chinook

    There have been some pigs that have come out of Peck this year. Tons of nice lakers too.

    Sturgis Webcams, JR R U there

    Friday afternoon on I90 the bikes are very sparse. I don’t know that I believe the traffic counts but it’s hard to say. People come more spread out anymore so it’s hard to say. But definitely down. Tough to argue with the prices I’ve seen. $10 latte pounders are Nashville prices.
