    Where were you born?

    Like Brian, I was born in Watford, but I grew up east of there about 40 miles fishing the big stream. As a young man, Watford was known as a Shiite hole as the oil center of ND (don't care what Tioga says, it was/is Watford).

    June 6, 1944

    Along that line, I am heading to Normandy this fall for an 8 day vacation. While I think I'll enjoy the trip, I am expecting to be the young'un of the group that's going.

    Boat ownership sucks

    I don't think I have ever willingly "updated" the software on my electronics. I figure the frigging manufacturer probably had the code about right when they brought the thing to market. I know software updates on my phones has probably led to me buying a new phone sooner than I would have...

    Pretty busy today

    I would think that this is a year in which a person should be fishing the hell out of shallow water (3-5 ft) up next to weeds in the water. And there's only so many of those 300,000 acres that fall into this description.

    Here we go again 2011 part 2

    Calling this a repeat of 2011 is not based in facts, by any stretch of the imagination. The mountain runoff is just starting to hit its stride as warm weather is forecast for the snow covered areas. Dean, where did you get the info that no oil wells were impacted until a stage of 24 ft? I am...

    Boat ownership sucks

    KDM knows of what he speaks, maybe in a week or two I will share my most recent outing. As is, I am not yet sure if it was good, bad, or something in between.

    Black Bear in the back yard!

    I don't remember where, but I saw a pic from an airplane of a bear up by Cavalier just in the past couple days as well.

    Wells County

    Well, I wouldn't say there's NO recourse. If the sheriff is implicated in the breaking of a law, BCI can surely investigate, as can the feds. If it just comes down to not liking the sheriff, well...it's an elected position. Take it to the voters or maybe even the county commission. We've...

    Lake elevations

    Indeed, we are just now seeing the summer rise on the Yellowstone. There is plenty of water coming in for the next few weeks!

    Slot limits and releasing big fish

    With the pure shit luck the kids and I have had so far this spring, we are keeping everything from here on out for the rest of the month. 18 lb eyes, sturgeon, pike, and even carp! Well, at least 2 of the 4.

    BB snobs unite

    I love BB's, and yes...I have pulled them on planers. Only a few times though, mostly because I wasn't sure if I should have been out in 17 ft of water, or fishing the mudline in 4 ft of water. I'd use a sparkplug if I thought I could catch a walleye on it!

    Bear Attack on Cam

    5575, I gotta admit, I have little interest in hunting bear, but if I had such an encounter...I'd kill every damn one the law would allow! From a distance, with a rifle.

    Bear Attack on Cam

    I think there's an old adage about NOT poking the bear that's applicable here.

    Bis-Man Reel and Rec "Take a Kid Fishing" day June 3rd, 2017 Sweet Briar Dam

    These are great events! I did something similar up at New John's a few years ago and had a great day.

    Metal roof pros/cons

    So long as the place is insured, I wouldn't worry about hail dings. That's why we carry insurance on things. Metal can be deafening during a heavy rain or hail. I'd make sure the install included some soundproofing under the metal. As far as fading, I see some 10+ year old high end metal...

    Buying new tires Memorial Day sales or Labor day sales?

    Is this the 3rd tire set for the vehicle? Two sets of tires and you are at 80k on the second set with half the rubber left is pretty damn good wear if the truck started with BFGs. I run 10 ply Hankook tires on my F250 and got about 45k on the first set, and looking like I will get about the...

    Deer are Jerks

    I think the worst I've ever seen though was the damage that happened when a fella hit a simmental bull while driving a little chevy Citation (or some equivalent). That big old bull came right through the windshield and damn near killed him. Luckily for him he was an avid wrestler/body...
