    Big muddy almost 40 takes it..uffda!

    I fished out of Steckel today. Water temp was 42.6 degrees for most of the afternoon. The 4 males we caught were making one hell of a mess in the boat. Otherwise, beautiful day out there. Hot, then cold, then hot again.

    A question for the farmers on here.

    Uffda, putting bean on bean, or any crop needing deeper soil moisture to carry them through July is quite the gamble this year.

    New John's

    LOL, it is after all, the only place I've ever caught one. Stopped out there this evening and tossed a shallow running crank around at a lot of the south shore on East Park, Heckers, and New Johns.. No hits, no follows, only a few weeds. Also talked to about half the people out fishing and it...

    New John's

    I would have to imagine she's ice free by now. I'll be in the area tonight, I will have to do a drive-by.

    New John's

    I have a few hours tomorrow (May 5th) available to take a handful of kids out fishing. With the wind forecast, I was thinking of taking them up to New John's. Anyone know if there are any active fish there this time of the year? It's a bit earlier in the year than I've ever open water fished...

    The Great Minnesota Muskie War

    Antagonistic? Probably. A "lot" of other people? I don't know if I would say a lot. I only know one muskie enthusiast, and he's caught exactly the same number of them as I have. My point is that there's not a realistic chance for people to catch and keep them here, or in MN even...

    The Great Minnesota Muskie War

    I'm with you on this one. I hate the protective nature the state and musky fishermen are of this species. If I ever catch one large enough to keep, I may put up a video of just how to butcher it. Because I sure as heck ain't gonna pay what it would take to mount the damn thing. A fish in the...

    The Great Minnesota Muskie War

    Just curious here, but if muskies aren't eating walleye, what exactly do they eat to get to 50+ lbs? And, of course, these discussions are not exclusive to musky and Minnetucky. There was a very anti-salmon movement back when salmon and smelt were first stocked into Sakakawea. Yeah, yeah...

    Good News Guys, I'm starting my own conservation group................

    It's people like KDM that make a difference in the world around us. Far too many are just along for the ride, including me at times.

    Guess this gun

    Savage model xxxxxx? I'm pretty sure I'm the winner based on the level of fine detail and workmanship.

    Security camera system

    If I had to do something like this, I would give Trinspin a call. If you need some electronic magic, the owner is the man. https://www.trinspin.com/ Depending on your level of want, hiring a contractor to figure out things for you may be too costly, but if you want dependability and ease of...

    Good News Guys, I'm starting my own conservation group................

    Ah, gotcha on the sizing thing. If you have a UTV (not an ATV), you could probably get about a 60-80 gallon tank that can ride in the back (just guessing that my Pioneer would hold one about that size). On an ATV you'd be limited to something that is quite a bit smaller, like maybe a 35 gallon...

    Good News Guys, I'm starting my own conservation group................

    Yeah, they probably won't like trees being planted on a WPA. They think of them as roosts for predators of young ducks, so it defeats the "Production" part of the WPA. Overall, KDM you are on a damn roll here. I have a tree watering system I setup for my own plantings. It's just a 250 gallon...

    Cosby - Guilty

    Tom's next! https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/tom-brokaw-says-angry-over-sexual-misconduct-accusations-192325174.html Actually, I would hope not. Not that I ever really had a strong urge to follow his newscasts, but just because this whole thing is getting tiresome and I worry that there's...

    Cosby - Guilty

    80 yr old famous rapist. He will be in protective custody. And/or have a group of guys that grew up with their pants down around their knees watching his back.

    Cosby - Guilty

    snow, there's a difference between sleeping with someone to get a job and being roofied. Cosby was drugging women so they couldn't say no. Clinton, to my knowledge, never used drugs to get the women to sleep with him. Rather he just was a pig. I like to think juries tend to make the right call...

    Compost vs. Screen Black Dirt for Garden

    What Lbrandt said. I believe there have been posts on here before about people planting things like tomatoes and taters into soils heavily amended with compost only to find out there's too much 2-4D and other residual weed sprays that really stunted their growth. I tend to use peat moss and...
