    CWD unit 3a1

    First and foremost, this sucks! For those that have been dealing with this in 3F2, I have a few questions about how this affects the deer harvest from folks outside of the unit? Reading through the CWD proclamation it appears you cann't transport the head or spine but you can transport...

    Rod holders

    Sorry but I'm gonna go off topic for a moment and then we can get back to those high maintenance rod holders :) ;If your planning to run down riggers, I think tracks are far Superior to rails and can provide a much better support and brace systems. As person that never plans to run down-riggers...

    Rod holders

    I’m on my second boat with Folbe’s. They just work, it would be nearly impossible to lose a rod with them and yet there easy to release when the time comes for a hook set. They also have a nice locking feature which is great for trolling cranks. My only complaint is they tend to be a little...

    Cruise Tips

    Fly in the night or day before, have a little fun in Miami before you leave and give yourself a buffer for weather or flight issues. You never know what kind of weather delays you'll run into and the boat isn't going to wait for you.

    Amazing gun dogs

    Yes, being the owner of a fur-ball sucks! heck, his hair isn't even long. I cann't imagine you guys with golden retrievers and setters! - - - Updated - - - FYI, I'm all ears when it comes to breaking a hard mouth. Ace, pictured above, is terrible for chomping birds before he brings them back...

    Kicker Rigging

    The smartcraft system works fantastic however most of us who are rigging with a kicker are doing so to both keep hours off the main engine and the fact that our main engine will not troll slow enough. When your main is running a 22 or 24 pitch prop even at 550 rpms your still probably moving...

    Kicker Rigging

    Convieniance factor of having everything tied to a single remote. Just more user friendly when trolling open water. I would’ve used the excuse that it would save me a trip to the front of the boat to deploy the TM, but since the new rig has a ulterra I guess I canny use that one, lol. As far...

    Kicker Rigging

    I throw my 2 cents in here on a few things to consider. The port versus starboard side I think depends comes down to if your going with remote controls or a tiller. I know many of the pros that run till kickers run them on the starboard side. It provides a better line of site to the dash graphs...

    Boat price negotiation

    For those hoofing across the border, just remember that in our short open water season when you have an issue and find you have to get in line and wait for your local dealer to service it as they have buying customers boats to take care of first, I don’t want to hear one word of bitching. Not...

    Boat price negotiation

    Everyone is entitled to their opinion. One guy thinks a new boat is a waste and to buy used; while the next says "for what they want for a 1-2 year old unit, I might as well buy new". Buy local is one mans thought while the next is go buy in the next state over to save a buck.......I'm not going...

    shooting fall turkeys from a permanent blind

    How about that, look at that hunting puddle. He even retrieves turkeys, lol. In all seriousness, after three days in the field with my 1 year old Brittney, whom might ad is a fur ball compared to the last one, we'll be taking the scissors after him this week to get all of the briars, cockleburs...

    7 Marine how it is made 627 HP marine engine.

    Yes, and that was a 209TFX with the 400R. Somewhere in the low 70's it apparently would get pretty lose, or so the report was. I know Yar-craft tightened up and tweaked those hulls in 2017. They run pretty solid with the current hp ratings, haven't noticed a hint of looseness in either of 2018...

    New fishing boat Yar Craft

    We’ll probably cannot help you much on the 1785. I am however embarking on my 3rd Yar-Craft and can’t say enough good about their boats. Going from an 1895 storm side counsole, to a Bass Cat Calico (186FSX) and now to a 219TFX, I’ve been pleased and impressed with every one! One thing about...

    Snow Totals

    You guys go ahead a look at the maps, I’ll use my eyes as I actually walked through it on the GFAFB within a few hours after the storm had passed. Put it this way, you didn’t need 4wd to get around other than the fact it was icy, the ditches were were not blown full and canny say I noticed a...

    Snow Totals

    There's no way the GFAFB got 19" of snow. I was in cavalier on wed, in Grand Forks Thursday morning, and out to the AFB that morning also. At most, the base had 6" of snow and I'm being generous with my estimate. Something was obviously wacky with that reporting station. on the flip side you...

    Tires

    I used to be a pretty solid Bridgstone Revo person, still have them on my 3/4 ton and like them in the snow and on icey roads. 30-40k is about all I get out of them on the 3/4 ton. Have had sets go 50-60k on my 1/2 tons. Ended up with BFG A/T KO 2s on my half ton because they were the only 10...

    6.7 cummins delete...

    That certainly could be :confused:. I'm not completely up on the latest and greatest as far as tuners and delete kits go but I know several companies still make turners for the current offerings from all three manufactures.
