    Jason Mitchell Outdoors

    Hmm, saw him on the water today. I should have paid better attention! We were still fishing deeper, but the fish are definitely moving shallower as water temp was 48 degrees.

    Trailer Upgrades, Bunks, Tires and Jack.

    While I am not overly familiar with specifics, I do know there are boat junkyards on the web. You might be able to pick one up from there, but I'm guessing it would still be cost prohibitive based on the new value of boat glass. Nonetheless, I totally get why a person would want a windshield...

    Night crawler worm bed

    You can trap minnows, but the traps are very specific in size, etc. A seine (net) as you described would require a commercial bait trapping license. Even then, I am not sure about the legality of pulling it with a motorized boat. One can't even use a cast net in ND under the current rules.

    Night crawler worm bed

    Not to be a stick in the mud, but I don't think Mr. Game Warden would like this idea.

    Are you talking a new windshield, or a whole 'nother boat? As far as the wife, I suggest earplugs. Even if they don't stop the wind from howling in her ears, they will at least take 23 decibels off of her complaint. My fishing buddy was wearing some the other day on a standard 15 mp wind with...

    Coal Creek

    I recall way back in 2003, when I moved to Bismarck, the electric company sent out a letter asking anyone who wanted to go "green" could add $5 to their electric bill to help support wind power. I am guessing it's not so voluntary any longer.

    Gas Prices

    Yep, I've been saying that for months. For all that the Donald and I agree on, he's been way too slow to come around on this topic. It's already driven Whiting into bankruptcy. Several more Bakken players are going to be right behind them. We tariffed the hell out of Japanese cars in the 80s...

    Gas Prices

    By wishing for "cheap gas", you have the same fundamental end game of AOC...the demise of the U.S. oil industry. While I don't like to see oil at $150 a barrel either, we need to make sure drilling for oil in the U.S. is profitable or we will once again be at the mercy of people that are not...

    Private Landowners Hunting Public Lands

    LOL. I'm also a landowner. I rarely hunt the deer on my land, mostly because they know me and I could damn near club them at times. Doesn't seem sporting to me, so I hunt other private and public lands. And I also let a fairly large number of people (on a per acre basis) hunt my land, but...

    Youth Scope

    I put a Vortex Diamondback 3.5x10 x 50 on my kids' 243 and while they have really liked it, I wish I would have put it on one of my rifles. Dandy scope! - - - Updated - - - note, that 243 has been used by my 10 (now 12 yr old daughter) and 14 yr old son in the taking of all their deer over...

    Little known gotcha's in life

    SO I called the bank again yesterday, and this time their ATM manager actually called me back with "good news". It will be resolved in 2-5 business days. While I told him to not take this personally, I actually swore in reference to the type of customer service I felt I was receiving. 28...

    Deadliest Catch

    That's just the way it is. I don't think I've ever seen anyone arguing with a cattle buyer either come fall. Or fur buyer in the winter, or …..? I'm guessing you get accustomed to a particular buyer and if/when you think they are screwing you over, you move on to the next.

    Verado trim ?

    Are you sure the trim limiter is operating as intended? If you can't trim up enough to blow out the prop, I think I'd look at something other than motor height as the start.
