    Clam Outdoors Customer Service

    Clam made great products 10-15 years ago. Every year since then it seems prices go up a little and quality goes down. I think the stuff was originally made in MN? It is now made with whatever material comes in at the lowest bid and made by wherever the labor is the cheapest. Not that...

    Red River- Ice Fishing Fargo area

    Slack water areas can build ice as fast as a smaller lake, but a lot of snow can really screw things up. A few years back I was jigging out of my pickup door on the Red in January. Not much snow and drove on after measuring about 28 inches of ice(also saw other yahoos in pickups out there...

    Stuck out on Alice. Get rid of the vex!

    How do you know he didn't have a graph without a GPS? - - - Updated - - - Heard the term up on Lake Winnipeg from the Canadians. I think they use it in hockey as well. Kinda like a guy sitting on a "box" of Molson with a broomstick for a rod.

    Stuck out on Alice. Get rid of the vex!

    I use both regularly Shorty. I jig under my graph all summer long on the back of my tiller and have it with me every time out in the winter. They both work fine, but the Vex will tell you how close the fish's nose is to the bait better every time. I use both the graph and the vex at the same...

    Stuck out on Alice. Get rid of the vex!

    It's not bullshit, it's fact. My graph ducer goes in my bobber hole for a reason. Sell your snake oil to somebody else.:D - - - Updated - - - 2.5 inches of target ID vs 1/4" on a FLX 28. The math equals 10 TIMES better target ID. - - - Updated - - - But, if you're a mucker it really...

    Then you could have a descent map and crappy target separation while jigging. Most guys on TV use both.

    I could have went that day. Precisely why I didn't go.

    Unless it was the most epic bite of 30 years of fishing. Then I would say "Well fair enough then".

    IMO the guy is an idiot. The forecast said the wind was going to pick up AND you don't have a GPS trail to follow back. AND then you endanger the rescue workers on top of it. Face palm.

    Too Much Snow for Ice Fishing Access

    I bet i could easily pull it into a giant slush pocket.

    Trespass Bill

    This legislation would put an end to my enjoyable drive arounds with my dog to look for birds/yotes/etc. By the time a guy sees some game, locates the proper person, and heads back to said game it's all over with. If it's posted, I just move on. If it's not, it's game on the way it is...

    Boot help

    Baffins are warm. I found a pair of Apex for about $140 off Ebay. They are giant and clumsy, though.

    Cleaning optics?

    I usually just use an alcohol pad or a little rubbing alcohol as well. Never have a problem as long as I bring my optics inside before the next hunt. I have cringed in the past when a guy jumps in the pickup for a sunup cruise and realized the binos were in a cold pickup. I always bring my...

    Best "Quotes of the Year".

    Excellent! It burns a bit after hooking up with 40-75 pounders 12 times with walleye gear. I will be in Belize shortly. Going to try close the deal. We'll keep in touch.
