    Walleye mounts

    11lbs from the Maple River by West Fargo in early spring. She was 28.5 inches long with an 18.5 inch girth. Caught in about a foot of water about 3 ft from shore. Hook set, lift, pull onto shore. Shortest and most unexciting fight of any large fish I've ever caught. Didn't stop me from...

    Spring

    Spring isn't here yet. I've seen robbins and heard some wood ducks which are two of the required spring time critters for me, but until I see mourning doves, spring hasn't arrived yet.

    Sneaky Ice

    Watch yourselves out there fellas. Lots of slush on top of the ice covered in this new layer of snow. Broke through the ice coming off the lake into about 2 ft of water as I neared the access point. Puckered my backside, slowly added the gas, and crawled out through the ice and mud. NOT a...

    Spearing Decoys

    I considered making my own decoys a time or two and I found some AWESOME youtube vids on how to do it. Some from rookies like myself and others from professionals that will blow your mind with the detailed masterpieces they make. Gators aren't that smart, so in reality, anything that is...

    What's a "Jumbo Perch"

    Some friends and I had a discussion about what it takes for a perch to be labeled a "Jumbo". I have been asked about Jumbo perch many times and to this day I'm not real sure what that means. I myself think that any perch that is 12 inches or longer is a Jumbo. However, the requirements vary...

    Worst Day On the Water?

    Chartered a 45 ft vessel for a day with my wife, daughter, sister in law, niece, and nephew as none of them had ever been deep sea fishing. Cost me 1800 bucks to get the whole boat, but it was a special treat. The wind was such that the exhaust from the engines kept swirling back into the...

    Soft water is started

    Until the shovel disappears or someone forgets to refill the rock salt. The tailrace fish cleaning station seems to gets trashed all the time, so the possibility for mischief is very real down there. I would prefer a more permanent solution, but it really makes no difference to me. I don't...

    Soft water is started

    Flat steel 2 inches wide with solid rings every 4 inches to attach chain to. Make the chains about a foot long so what you roll up or put together is the flat steel and the chains come with. Make'em in 4 ft sections and a bit wider than the ramp. A guy should be able to heft one section or he...

    Jamestown/VC area ice

    Around the VC area the ice is 36+ inches thick and hard as a rock. The issue is the snow. We have hard crusted snow drifts covered by powdery snow drifts. If you can get on the lake, you will need 4WD all the way and if you don't watch yourself you will end up on a drift with your truck high...

    Soft water is started

    Never will understand why you tailrace guys don't invest in a roll of chains that you can put down in the spring when this ice crap is a problem and then roll it back up when it's not needed. Seems you fight this ice every spring and every fall. Twould be a good agenda item for the G&F to...

    Lake/Ice Access

    Lake access is hit and miss. Hobart access was plowed, but the lake was covered in deep snow. Moon access was snowed in. Hit my perch spot and the access was blown in, but I blasted through. The rest of the lake was deep snow, but I smashed through the drifts with my 3/4 ton dodge going...

    Lake/Ice Access

    Going to take a ride today and see what the countryside looks like. I just might go by a few lakes while I'm out. (Grin)

    HB 5087 will your gun make the cut

    Them damn "Deplorables" are at it again. Speaking with actions instead of words. NOTHING scares politicians more than good and decent people taking action to show what they believe in.

    HB 5087 will your gun make the cut

    Not even going to check as it doesn't matter. To think that pronouncing an inanimate object illegal will somehow prevent it's use by criminals is ludicrous. Regardless of what these fear mongers declare is illegal, the evil actions by evil people WILL continue. Gun control laws do absolutely...

    Protecting Schools

    The more folks there are protecting the kids the better IMO. The teachers, if they want, can be armed and seal up the classroom until LE arrives to get them out while the resource officer engages the threat outside the classroom. I can get behind that. As far as dealing with the kid...
