    Owning multiple vehicles

    Yeah gas savings wasn't my intent either when i bought my bike at 22. It was just a side benefit, but when you use it in place of your truck it is sort of a hobby that can pay for itself. I sold for several reasons, but not sure it will be my last bike.

    Lake Sakakawea - Local nickname locations of fishing spots???

    - - - Updated - - - A couple of Moose West of Indian hills on Saturday. Nothing like catching nice piggie eyes with moose in the backround. They hung around for about 10 min.

    Lake Sakakawea - Local nickname locations of fishing spots???

    I think it may have been replaced with a sign that no longer says Pepsi but i'm not 100% sure on that. The problem with a lot of spots is that some of the landmarks are no longer there. There is no longer a "silo" and there sure as hell are no goats on "Goat Island". I believe the Beacon on...

    Lake Sakakawea - Local nickname locations of fishing spots???

    Yeah you kind of just have to fish and pay your dues and you will learn them. I've been fishing that area my whole life and still occasionally learn a spot. Pepsi is at the mouth of good bear bay if that helps...#$%^&>

    Owning multiple vehicles

    When gas prices were at $4 i think a second vehicle penciled out. At current gas prices and for the foreseeable future i'm not sure they are worth it unless you maybe have a 3/4 truck to pull your camper and supplement that with a small car that gets excellent gas mileage for around town. I...

    Casino Fiasco

    My only knock on this format is it seems to force guys into looking for small aggressive fish becasue you need to get fish on the board quick to not be eliminated. Since there is no limit on number they just sit there and catch small fish after small fish and rack up weight rather than looking...

    Glacier National Park

    Yep northern ID is pretty amazing as well. Did a bike trip a few years ago through Glacier, Sandpoint, Coeur d' Alene. All amazing country. The best part was once over the pass on going to the sun road i just put my bike in neutral and turned it off. Coasted in silence all the way back down...

    Do not call list

    I don't answer my phone if the number isn't in my contacts unless its obviously a local number and I'm expecting a call. I've gotten to the point i don't answer my door either unless i'm expecting somebody. I can kind of peer out my window to see who it is, most the time its somebody trying to...

    Not Too Shabby

    So if I'm reading it correctly the included transducer can do DI, but to get SI you need to upgrade ducer? The 7" is on sale at scheels for like 699 but the included transducer isn't DI or SI, you have to upgrade to $300 ducer. Does the 9 come with different ducer than 7?

    One Rod, Double Walleye

    I've literally had smallies jump out of the water and grab lures that were dangling over the side of the boat on two occasions. I did also catch a 25" walleye on an original Zara Spook this year. Its the second top water walleye I've caught in my life while fishing for bass. The other was a...

    Road Rage

    Its amazing how pissed off people get on the road, myself included. When a guy thinks about it you realize how dumb it is to get mad and escalate a situation. Things can get out of hand in a hurry and change lives forever over stupid BS. I try not to get too mad anymore, but It would be so much...

    Sturgis, anyone going?

    Owned a bike for 10 years. Went to Sturgis once because my buddy had a cabin by Lead. I didn't really fully partake in Sturgis, mostly just rode the hills and stopped by roadside bars and watched the scenery. Was a good time to do it once, not sure id ever need to go back. Whatever the hobby...

    Sidelines in bismarck

    I think sidelines is about the only bar in Bismarck I haven't stepped foot into in the past decade. Back then it was mostly college kids/natives. I have no idea the crowd there these days but i cant imagine its anything even remotely "liberal"

    Alumilite Little munchkin

    I agree. 5X7 is pretty damn small unless you only fish by yourself. That 63" interior height would suck as well IMO. My medium portable Otter Cabin is taller than that.

    Indian Hills Resort

    I find spinners to be a happy medium between jigging and cranks. By the time spring is over I've done so much jigging on ice and the Missouri that i find pulling spinners on a nice summer day with a beer in my hand pretty damn relaxing and fun. Indian Hills has been hit and miss. Can crush...

    What did you have for points coming into ghost drawing and did it work for you

    What unit for you and your coworker? Somebody always seems to bitch about not getting a tag for seven years while someone they know does every year. They usually fail to mention that they put in for 4C and the friend puts in for 3b3 or 3f1. Not saying this is your case, but it would be...

    Ice house as camper/gear hauler?

    I think the only way your getting an atv with tracks in one of these is if the interior is pretty much completely bare. You can buy yetis unfinished and do yourself. I have no actual experience with these ice houses, but i have thought about getting one for all-seasons myself so will be...

    Confession to KurtR

    I still have an original NES hooked up to a tv in a spare bedroom. Sometimes during crappy winter evenings, I drink by myself and binge on super tecmo bowl.

    Returning Rods

    Loosen your drag and when you get a snag point the rod straight at it and grab the spool until either the line breaks or you straighten your hook. Don't use the rod for leverage on a snag.

    Returning Rods

    I have to wonder how its possible to break so damn many rods. I have literally never broke a rod in my life other than one I drove over. I've used Fenwick, loomis, Scheels, Berkely, TUCR etc. The funny thing is the only rod i ever saw break under normal conditions was my buddy's Ugly Stick. It...
