    Favorite Jiggin' Rap

    I'm a pretty big fan of the rippin raps these days. They wont always hit them, but when they do it can be a blast. I also hated the Chubby Darters. Yes they caught fish, but they took way to damn long to get back to the bottom during a feeding frenzy.

    Badlands mule deer

    There are things they could do to manage the mule deer herd for bigger deer, but people already bitch enough about not getting a tag. Also, G&F has never managed anything in our state for trophies, they manage for opportunity. It would maybe be pretty cool if they did highly restrict one unit...

    Ice Fishing around Bismarck

    There is sweetbriar, crown butte, Harmon lake. I haven’t fished any of these in forever so can’t really give any tips. As others have said a guy almost needs to drive about 60 miles before you start hitting good water. There is endless opportunities if you drive 60-100 miles.

    Badlands mule deer

    I'm assuming this is partially due to more hunters, and partially due to increasing amount of deer. I saw more deer this year by far than the last two years combined, bucks, does, fawns, didn't matter. No true giants, but plenty of nice bucks.

    E3 elk

    Its funny, I've heard this from other people as well. Maybe i'm just lucky, but in the 3 years I've been bow hunting in the badlands I've seen elk every year, and usually multiple different Elk in different areas. The last two years I've been within 150 yds of large 6x6 bulls on public land, I...

    There must be turkey, but it can be accompanied by ham and prime rib as side dishes.

    2.7 Liter Ecoboost F150

    Thats a diesel, your cheating. To be honest i have gotten over 19 several times while driving long distances out west doing 80-85 in my 2015 Sierra. If i remember correctly i got 19.3 last year hauling ass from Missoula to Bismarck, the only time the speedo dipped below 83 was when i filled gas...

    2.7 Liter Ecoboost F150

    Most of the current trucks will do that. I want 20mpg while doing 85 :)

    remember when...

    I member trying to tune in to skin-emax even though we didn't have those channels. Blurry boobies was better than none, if you got real lucky it was crystal clear but the screen was blue. I also member having to wait a good 10 minutes while somebody was playing lookout for a booby to come into...

    Boat price negotiation

    ^^The few small things I've needed haven't been an issue getting done in Bismarck. I just refuse to pay thousands more for something just because its "local".

    Boat price negotiation

    Whenever i buy a new vehicle or toy I always shop around, I then give the local Bismarck stealerships a chance to match it, they are never willing to budge. It doesn't seem to matter whether its Boats, Atv's, Motorcycles, Vehicles etc. I haven't bought a big ticket item in Bismarck for over a...

    Boat price negotiation

    Just know that using a website like nada or kbb on boats is notoriously unreliable. Boats are such a regional thing as far as what types of boats sell better and hold value better. I’d try and find similar boats in the region on Bisman,Craigslist, walleye central etc. to try and get a enter...

    New pet — small dog

    Do you hunt? Why not just get a medium-small dog like a small female English Cocker?

    DeWalt Buddy Heater

    In a portable ice house the buddy's are the "only way to go" they have a low oxygen sensor and portables tend to not be super airtight anyways and or have vent flaps. No matter what your heat source if your sleeping in it have a battery operated CO detector.

    Milk

    Speaking of Milk in jugs. I hate milk in plastic jugs, it has a different taste. Up until recently you could still get half gallon cartons, but I’ve noticed the last few times I’ve went grocery shopping even the half gallons are all in plastic. Have they phased out the cartons completely?

    Snow

    Yep we had about 4-5" of ice followed by 50 degree temps and rain and now wet snow. I was fully set on ice fishing tomorrow, but not so sure now.

    New: Glo shot ice jig!

    I've avoided any of this "glow stick" stuff. I know as soon as the three sticks run out, ill never buy them again and I'll be left with a weird lure ill never use again. Give me normal glow and yes red is best. Having said that, if i actually was with somebody who really out fished me i'm sure...

    Please wear your orange....

    I use this same motto while pheasant hunting. Its not the law but why wouldn't I want to be very visibly to my hunting partners while everyone is swinging guns around and shooting during a pheasant-nado. Never understand the guys in full camo walking thick cover for birds, do you want your...
