    Spruce tree issues????

    Black Hills spruce trees and Colorado Blue Spruce are the two most common I see around Bismarck. Sounds like the Norway Spruce is more tolerant/resistant to this fungus though, and that will be a consideration for me going forward.

    So did fishing buddy finally kick the bucket?

    You just got lucky, I was in Fairview not that long ago and if'n I didn't have the kids with me I was going to pull in just to anonymously say hi.

    Spruce tree issues????

    I updated the pics in the original post, that should help you guys see the pics. Overall, I think you have steered me in the right direction and I'll seek out some anti-fungal help later on today and try to get it applied as we dry out this coming weekend (I hope). Damnit anyways!

    New Motor - Break In Service

    It's just money, and if it helps you sleep better at night...it's money well spent. Let's face it, the logic behind a break-in service job is to remove the small filings that were expected to be generated as parts wore fast during the break-in period. I believe the much higher tolerances and...

    So did fishing buddy finally kick the bucket?

    No. Granted, I am only semi-anonymous, but I've had a couple of psycho douchebags track me down, bring my employment into the discussion, etc. The concept of the first amendment eludes some of our nutjobs.

    Spruce tree issues????

    Ok, so I have a pretty fair number of good sized (15-35 ft) tall spruce trees in my yard that a couple of are exhibiting some kind of disease or ???? problems. Any arborists among us that have an idea of what may be affecting this tree? This is another pic of the same tree, just from a few...

    Salmon?

    Yep, and I've been exonerated off all fishing violation accusations. However, I was found guilty of catching the fish over Easter and for that I'm still serving a sentence. :;:huh:;:huh

    Automatic Clay Pigeon Thrower

    After looking at some of the options out there for you, I'd say do your homework on the model you want. Some of the models have a dedicated foot pedal cord, others...like mine...have one that you can add a standard extension cord to for putting the thrower out there at greater distances. This...

    Buy New Boat out of State - Pay Sales Tax?

    Talk to your dealer, there's no reason to pay MN sales tax on it if it's going to be registered in ND. MN sales tax is higher than ND, so you can save a small percentage on your tax if you can talk your MN dealer into doing the paperwork correctly. I bought a used boat from a dealer down by...

    Automatic Clay Pigeon Thrower

    https://www.claypigeonthrower.org/do-all-outdoors-white-wing-automatic-trap-review/ If you have the acreage to throw at your place, these work well. I have one, you can either use a battery operated remote control that's about the size of a key fob, or you can plug extension cords into it and...

    New State record

    The beauty of all this is that after a mere 12 months of having an undisputed record walleye, we are now back to having a record with an asterisk. That asterisk being one of "a guy claims to have legitimately caught a fish nearly 3/4 of a pound larger, but there was enough bitching and moaning...

    New State record

    Maybe a good addition to the poacher's trailer of deer mounts that make it to the sports shows? I too am curious as to the level of evidence, it would seem a fish that large being dragged in sideways would cause a wound that might be easily discernable to the trained eye. But the thought of one...

    New State record

    Crap, if'n I'd had known this was going to happen...I'd have kept that 16 lb 5 oz fish I C&R'd.

    Fixing a scratch in sparkly fiberglass.

    That's one nice thing about having a beat up old Lund. It'll not look any worse after the next couple years of me teaching the kids how to drive and dock it. Well, they've been driving already for a couple years, but mostly out in the middle of deep water with nothing to hit but waves. Maybe...

    Ticks

    Note, you can buy cans of permethrin based spray for your clothing at places like Runnings. I picked some up last week. About $7-9 a can, depending on the brand.

    Scheels High end coolers

    Screw you, I gave mine away after it kept freezing my damn beer. Might have been defective but internet research suggests the damn things are designed that way.

    Emmons County Break-Ins

    Someone's risking getting shot. Hadn't heard of this before now, but am no longer surprised by human nature.

    Blame the turkey hunters

    I haven't gone back to look, but according to someone sympathetic to their cause, some of my posts on their were deleted. Not by me... Oh well, I will continue to operate as I have for most of my life. I've never liked group punishment for individual actions, those supporting this effort seem...

    Blame the turkey hunters

    So long as there's an openable gate, it's not illegal to run a fence across a section line (as I interpret this guy's minimum maintenance road to be).
