    Hammered Grey Beard just trying to help.........

    Good Call KDM, I hope to do the same as you are offering some day. For now, with a 12-year old son and 15-year old daughter, I don't have any stuff to hand down, heck most of the time I'm just trying to track down where MY stuff is, lol. Went fishing with my 12-year old son in his boat this...

    Uhhhh, did you actually read the article you posted or ANY other long term winter forcast for ND? Last year we had Zero snow and one of the warmest winters of the past few decades. The big lake had one of yet latest freeze dates and earliest ice outs in our record keeping history. This year is...

    6.5 Match in Ballistic Gel

    Well, he wouldn't listen and sit still like a steel gong, I wasn't on a bench, and there was probably some wind and apparently my lead was a tick too much...................I wish every shot was perfect but apparently I don't live in that world. FWIW, directly behind the front shoulder of a big...

    6.5 Match in Ballistic Gel

    I shoot both the 143 ELDXs out of a 6.5 creed and 147 ELDMs out of a 6.5 PRC. Both have done well on deer and antelope however I do notice that both work better at distance than they do at close range. With the creed and 143 Xs, it seems anything under 100 yards I get pass through and the animal...

    Audubon and Smaller Area Lakes - Water Temps

    So much for cooling lake water! Sakakawea was still 66 this past weekend and I don’t see that changing much before next weekend with the 7 day forecast being mid 70s to 80 degrees!

    Audubon and Smaller Area Lakes - Water Temps

    Sakakawea from deep water to McKenzie was 65-66 degrees today. Ripped Jig-Raps for 6 hours, didn’t catch much until noon, then smacked 7 in 20 minutes and back to nothing. - - - Updated - - - It’s interesting the smaller lakes are about the same temp as the big lake, I expect that’s likely to...

    Audubon and Smaller Area Lakes - Water Temps

    Just looking for reports of water temps on some of the area lakes such as Audubon and New Johns and/or any others as we move into the fall season and water temps start to drop. Sakakawea was around 68-70 degrees last over the holiday weekend depending on where we were from Shell Island all the...

    boat trailer tires

    Maxxis or Goodyear Endurance are probably the two best trailer tires on the market right now. I have had my share of problems with towmax, marathon, and whatever came on my boat. Replaced 4 marathons for a set of endurance on my 29 ft steel framed enclosed trailer which has seen several trips to...

    Oil Extractors?

    I have 26 internal combustion engines at my house, some that are just a PIA and messy to change oil and some that require extraction (jet ski). I used a small cheapy hand pump for the last several years only on the stuff I absolutely had too because it was slow, just as messy, and generally just...

    Lithium Batteries

    You know, I didn't miss those days until I recently tried it. Just like many on this board and guys you see at the lake, I continually yearned for the biggest baddest machine on the water and over the past 15 years kept upgrading, and upgrading, and upgrading until finally getting into my dream...

    Optimax Issues

    I would look at the fuel system first, so fuel lines and fuel filters. Second would be to check coils and plugs. you may have a weak one that isn't providing enough voltage as the demand increases. The only other easy thing right of hand would be to try a different starting battery. The big...

    used boat prices

    I don't know where you fish but last time I checked my boat always hits the water in May, sometimes in April, and I usually fish till sometime in November. That's eight months when I count on my fingers, lol. If you want to nitpick, how about $60k+ for a snobear when in ND there's no guarantee...

    used boat prices

    Well boys, that's a combination of high demand and ridiculous inflation. And as long our treasury department keeps printing money like drunken sailors and giving it away for free with interest basically at 0% outa the federal reserve, it's not gonna get any better. Unfortunately, sticking to the...
