    If you could live anywhere

    p.s. I'll take the Badlands this time of year.

    If you could live anywhere

    Right! Some of the plains tribes had the right idea. Chase the hunting and gathering opportunities as the seasons change. Not much unlike a lot of us do when it comes to fishing. In the spring I am on the river in the BisMan area. Come June it's time to either hit up the small lakes of...

    Why do you reel left and right handed?

    This is a real (reel???) problem with paddlefishing. Reel handles take a ton of abuse from people fishing the left side of the river. For those that don't already know, the "left" side of the river is determined by looking downstream.

    Federal CWD Spending

    I think there are people who are truly worried with the effect CWD has on the deer population, and there are others who are truly worried that this will eventually become a human health issue. Let's face it, there is no cure for any of the brain wasting diseases whether it's CJD, BSE, or CWD...

    Elk Bulls

    Thank goodness we still have the moose population restricted to the very northeastern corner of North Dakota.

    That's a dandy, congrats on finding a nice and wide bull!

    Robins

    Yeah, there's a certain percent that are here through the winter. Not sure if they are local birds or if it's the crew from their most northern extent in Canada-land, but I have had some at my place and there are plenty around the Capitol here in Bismarck all through winter.

    Dog Vests

    This is true and why a person should have a fairly decent conversation with their dog when out in the field. They have big ears to locate the sound, and if you're the sound they will know where you are at any given minute. My dogs have always gotten to the point of being able to follow my...

    And here I thought this thread was going to be about me... :cautious:

    LEWT Tournament Winners BUSTED!

    I am going to give the vulgar language a little slack here. This is a pretty significant betrayal of honesty/sportsmanship and those who believe they have been victimized by it are justly unhappy. They reasonably suspected this team had a history of cheating them out of prestige and cold hard...

    ND Mushrooms

    Or maybe a Shaggy Inky Cap? I don't pick shrooms because I have a damn hard time figuring out what species I am looking at. Except for puffballs, them I know. It's about 6 inches tall, and right where I left it.

    Sump pump

    Note, a "sump" pump is not usually stainless steel. For a septic system you definitely want to go with SS. I think the Barracuda pumps I've bought have been around $180-$220. It's been a few years now since I've replaced it, so they're probably well north of that nowadays.

    Sump pump

    Sump pump, or trash pump? If you're sticking your face in a "smelly hole" (I'll refrain from the obvious jokes), it sounds like you are replacing a septic tank pump on a mounded system. Or something similar. I've used Menards purchased pumps (1/2 HP Barracuda variety) for the past 12 years on...

    ND Mushrooms

    Pretty sure I found a Shaggy Mane shroom today in the backyard. I'd post a pic but am leary of being on here past my curfew. Maybe I'll get to it later today.

    Dog Vests

    I've had a few different vests for the dogs over the years. They all have their place in hunting. Skid plates that properly fit your dog and don't chafe are good when temps are above 40 degrees, but they do tend to leave portions of the pup exposed to barbed wire. Below that in temps and a...

    Top Gun II Scene Suggestion

    Huh...I was pleasantly surprised at the creativity of the writers and producers. They combined some of Bob Hoover's antics and today's friction with Iran to produce a movie that exceeded my fairly low expectations.

    LEWT Tournament Winners BUSTED!

    I am guessing here, but fraud seems to be the legitimate charge. They fraudulently presented fish of a given size with their weight being altered by unnatural means for financial benefits. Not unlike rigging a lottery with weighted pingpong balls to alter the probability of that being in the...
