    Anyone regret going from aluminum hull to glass hull?

    This is good stuff, fellas. Outside of Marbleyes, it doesn't seem like anyone went to glass and then back to aluminum. And that was for all the wrong damn reasons. I am merely vetting the options, and am nowhere near the buying stage. However, one can't do enough due diligence when dropping...

    Anyone regret going from aluminum hull to glass hull?

    Yeah, part of the problem for me is I fish a heck of a lot of different waters each year. Everything from White Earth down to the dam on Sak, the river near Bismarck, Lake Oahe, and all the smaller lakes in the area. I'm starting to really like the Toon for fishing Sak and big waters, but when...

    Hunts that haunt you

    Fall of 2005 I was hunting the southern part of the Badlands for a WT buck. This was the year of the Deep Creek fire and we (the ex and I) were hunting the public land near where some of the private stuff burned. I knew there were whiteys in the area, but in this one draw I had only ever seen...

    Anyone regret going from aluminum hull to glass hull?

    I'm just curious here if anyone (I'm sure someone has) regretted going from an aluminum hulled boat over to a glass hull? I'm contemplating getting a different boat over the next year or two and have really been thinking about going glass for the ride. But that's only one part of the equation...

    Storage Net Options - 2017 Lund Boats

    https://www.norsemenoutdoors.com/product-category/stowmaster/ I have the walleye 108" version for the Toon. Great net even if it's a little on the heavy side. Overall though, I don't know if I fully understand your dilemma. Are you storing your net vertical in a holder only to have the motor...

    Missouri River rise

    This latest development makes me laugh, out loud even. The only reason I brought it up is because there are people in the Bismarck/Mandan area that are awfully sensitive to the word "flood" and I want to make sure that we all understand that this little bout of high water does not meet the...

    Missouri River rise

    p.s. Mclean Bottoms is Corps of Engineers owned for a reason. It was purchased specifically for inundation when they were to run Oahe at full pool and into its Exclusive Flood Control zone. It's a bit of a stretch to refer to it as "flooded" when it's supposed to be the bottom of the lake...

    Lots of industrial applications of it to dicamba resistant crops have been really putting the hurt to trees and neighboring non-resistant crops. I'd have to think those farmers opting to not use dicamba resistant soybeans, etc are really pissed when their neighbor costs them 5-20% of their...

    I'm addicted to Power Pro

    I agree, thus I buy the stuff by the 1500 yd spool. It took Cabelas and PP some 5+ weeks to deliver a spool I ordered back in early June. I'd been waiting weeks to spool a couple of rods that needed new line, and another that was just a new addition to the boat.

    By the way, who was it that gets the "Blind Pig Found an Acorn" award for guessing 1853?

    It's really tough to kill thistle this time of year. Best time to kill thistle is early June when it's only about 6-12 inches tall, I forget what they refer to it as the stage of development. Milestone is a good one for going after thistle...

    Missouri River rise

    No, currently at 1853.14 MSL, which is 0.02 (within measurement error when you include wind) of yesterday's 1853.16 ft above MSL. - - - Updated - - - Whew!

    Missouri River rise

    Whoa, your groundwater is up 12 feet? That sounds more like a broken water main than a corresponding rise with the river. Yeah, the erosion is certainly ongoing, but I don't know if I think it's better or worse now than when the river was at 11-12.5 ft. It seemed like it was out of control...

    Missouri River rise

    Just curious here, but what "concerns" do you have in mind? We are still some 1.25 ft below the local definition of flooding, are their significant impacts I'm not aware of at these levels?

    lake trout

    Yes, I think some of the native trout species are in trouble because the introduced ones are eating them. I read/heard that while out at Yellowstone a few years ago.
