    Another fire

    When I drove home from work last night, the smoke was blowing over the my neighborhood. I had to hold off opening any windows or doing any outside work. All this and I live just south of expressway. Made ya realize what could have happened.

    Fish Cakes

    So I dove into the walleye cakes last night. They turned out really well and ended up eating too many. I had to lay down for the rest of the night. I didn't follow this recipe...at all, but I eventually will. 1. smaller box of shore lunch original 2. 1 sleeve of bacon flavored ritz...

    Great way to start the day

    that's not a great way to start the day. That sounds like a friggen awesome way to start the day! I watered a bare patch in my lawn while drinking coffee. I didn't think that was too bad.

    My DIY tackle projects

    Agreed. - - - Updated - - - This style of lipless crank has some awesome movement. They're 1/3 oz so pretty similar to the #4 UL rippin rap. I had one painted in "clown" before a northern destroyed the trebles. I had caught all my fish on it that day. I'll be ordering and painting quite a...

    Damn Wind!

    Hopefully my garbage bin blows away. I have some dead minnows at the bottom that will not come out with the water hose. It's a quick open and close with these hot days.

    My DIY tackle projects

    Those are the only ones I've sold. I want to make sure they catch fish first. Then I'll start in with the licensing and such. So, strictly hobby right now. JayKay, from the other site, dresses treble hooks so we usually just trade. What I've told them I'd do is paint whatever they'd bring me.

    My DIY tackle projects

    I sold six of these two a couple of young men that were chasing some green backs that upcoming weekend. They said the gold/red did a good job. The action seemed a bit off which was what I was worried about. They'd probably be great for casting, but not the best for vertical jigging.

    Fish Cakes

    I haven't made them yet. This is my project tonight. AFTER removing rock from the side of house, adding top soil to the garden, watering large patch of lawn I tore up to get grass to grow, and probably a bike ride with the wife.

    this year I vow to ...

    I didn't get out much last year either. My softball and baseball teams played in way too many tournaments and other weekends seemed to fill up with weddings and such. This year there is no softball, no baseball, only one wedding, and I've already had the boat in the water six times with fish...

    new tiller motor

    I'm in search of a 60 hp tiller motor (2000's and up) either 2 or 4 stroke. It's replacing a 25 hp merc 2 stroke on a 1650v Lund Rebel. Nothing wrong with my current motor but I'd like to go faster. By myself, I can run 20-24 mph without an issue. Put one person in there and I lose 10 mph...

    My DIY tackle projects

    The lipless ones have caught quite a few fish for the short time that I had them this winter. I think I only had them with on two trips. Makes life easier knowing I won't lose a $6 rippin rap to a pike. The open water ones have gotten wet at the tail race and at heskett. No takers yet but...

    My DIY tackle projects

    Those are imprinted into the bait itself. I have some that I use a loofa to create the effect.

    My DIY tackle projects

    The doldrums of winter pushed me to start doing some custom paint jobs on vertical rattle baits for ice fishing. As it got a bit warmer, I started painting some crank baits to cast from shore. Finally, I dove into painting and tying buck tail jigs. Feel free to give me some feedback.

    Lowrance Elite 7 hdi

    I have a few friends that run it and I think they like it. I run a humminbird now in hopes of eventually getting another one for the bow and splurging on autopilot. Who knows though. I hear motorguide and lowrance team up pretty well.

    Gun pics

    I'm still getting used to the new format. Can't figure out how to remove attachments and such. Either way, I had shot my dad's Remington 25-06 my first few years of deer hunting. I ended up winning a pump .243 at a banquet and promptly traded it in for this tikka .270 wsm. I have shot that...

    Vollmer - Owner

    Then hopefully they can take something away from this. They dug their own grave and celebrated during the entire process. I really think FBO will be a ghost town in a couple months.

    Vollmer - Owner

    Hi, my name is Toby... Just kidding. :D Im really happy you built something new with a great looking format. Hopefully this place picks up some speed. I especially enjoy the political section having a spot to itself, way at the bottom. Anyway, I'm from Bismarck and fish as much as possible...
