    It's getting worse every year.

    I will add...I love big game hunting (deer). But I'm getting a bad taste in mouth over the years as it very hard to find a place to hunt where I live. Every grove of trees has bow hunters in it. Few will let you hunt. Decent public but trampled by non-res and res alike. Takes the fun out of...

    It's getting worse every year.

    I have a love for dogs and guns. That puts me into hunting. Not sure how much Id bird hunt if I didn't have good dogs. The older I get, now into my 5th decade, I don't know how much I care to kill things anymore. I really love and respect all the animals I hunt. I love guns so much though...

    base layer pants

    Any recommendations on a base layer leggings? I'm looking for a lightweight but warm pair. Probably not going to find that. Assuming the warmer the heavier. I need a tall size as i'm 6'6. I usually wear a pair of kuiu pants for deer/yote hunting. They're mid weight at best. Any ideas on...

    Canada Bear Hunts

    In '19 I had made a post about referrals for bear hunts in canada. Had several replies. My group chose South Shore Lodge from referral from this site. Then covid hit. The owner actually gave our deposits back which is great as I heard many didn't. Anyway, we are finally talking about going...

    SD state record waldo

    huh...my old man used to fish Akaska every fall on pheasant opener. No traffic and he would wack the eyes shallow with jig and minnow.

    SD state record waldo

    good bait for the fish but don't let their numbers get too high...they'll in turn eat all the bait and there will be none for other fish. Happened here on a few lakes several years ago. White bass had incredible numbers and the eyes got quite skinny for awhile. Finally people started keeping...

    migration 23

    Ya we were covered up in snows and mallards this weekend. Many sloughs open up at least part way. Think its going to be one of those seasons where birds are hanging around and hunters doing well then a big freeze or snow and it'll be over in a night.

    Deer Scent Blocker

    Most of all that stuff is a gimmick and the companies are laughing all the way to the bank. With that said, I've had luck with nose jammer. Not sure why? Its not a scent killer cuz there is no such thing. More of a cover up/hide scent maybe? Anyway, have put on bottom of boots and a spray...

    sitka dakota hoodie question

    In researching more...I think the Hudson jacket is more what I'm looking at. But wow the price!! Duck oven isn't waterproof and not as tough material.

    duck hybrid

    To piggyback on the migration thread....I snuck out last night and had a quick mallard shoot right at dark. Got this hen mallard/pintail hybrid. Confirmed by biologist. Have only seen a few. Anyone else get something like this?

    Viqueens trade?

    Mullens is prob better than Dobbs. Should just let the rookie play a week or two until mullens comes back. I was hoping they would do something crazy and get Derrick Henry. Then just run the hell out of ball and have mullens make appropriate throws when need to. Could prob sneak into playoffs.
