    Found Phone Cleveland 1/21

    Power of social media is unreal. Got put in contact with the owner on other side of the state before even leaving the ice. Just as impressive is that the phone was laying on the ice (in an otter box) for a couple weeks, and after warming up and making sure it was dry it fired right up and looks...

    Found Phone Cleveland 1/21

    Found cell phone on ice near Cleveland on Jan 21. Will return to owner if contacted. I don't have Facebook if someone wants to repost on any groups there.

    Nanoplastics in water bottles

    Definitely not in your head. Water takes on plastic taste with age, especially if stored in warm temps. Had bottles stored too long in the boat take on a taste of gasoline too.

    Nanoplastics in water bottles

    Safe to assume many of us are already at least 5% plastic, and if we were really concerned about it we'd consume less from the glass and aluminum vessels.

    AGM

    The electronics in my ATV were drawing down the AGM battery when sitting for months at a time so I got a Battery Tender brand maintainer that I keep plugged in and have had no issues since.

    Sak, it's been a good run!

    Any theory on why the rise was so much less this year? Just plain luck or a function of Garrison discharge rate, current state of main channel, sudden temperature plunge? I have watched the Heart let loose in Mandan and upstream of Heart Butte and it is indeed a sight to behold. Also had the...

    Sak, it's been a good run!

    Pretty cool to watch it rise and lock up in the last few seconds of the time lapse video. Thanks @Allen.

    Property Tax Credit

    In some states and municipalities they do but not here. However here property taxes pay for removing mountains of snow from your road. And maintaining the road that serves your house is no different than maintaining your driveway. If not you, then who should pay for that?

    Property Tax Credit

    I'll maintain there is nothing inherently wrong with property tax. If done properly (which it is not currently), it is a direct use tax which is the most rational form of taxation. I understand the notion that you never truly own your home when property taxes exist, but that's like saying you...

    Forward facing dilemma

    That is a great article that touches on all aspects of the discussion. Anyone can catch fish. Finding fish is more rewarding to me. Tough to say where the line should be drawn when it comes to electronics.

    Ice fishing

    Don't boil. Make torsk. Poach in 175 degree F water for 3-5 minutes, then apply salt and broil in clarified butter for 3-5 minutes. Finish with a sprinkle of paprika.

    Late December early

    Stuff happens but it seems to happen every year at red lake and this year it's been like 3 times already. Those are not good betting odds.

    $50/yr for Navionics mobile!?!

    I get your point but it's the same data they charged $10/year for, nothing new or better. And I don't have a $125k boat so fifty bucks is fifty bucks.

    Traction master

    Bought some of those special screws years ago and they worked for a while but did not like them. Notice the slot cut in the hex head to give them "teeth". They were very inconvenient when you didn't want to destroy flooring in a business or ice house as LB noted. Also had some rip out after a...

    Happy Pledge of Allegiance Day

    And within 10 years it was bastardized by the religious zealots. Now the low information crowd points to the pledge and says "See!? The US was founded on christian principles... it's in the pledge. Derp!" https://www.ushistory.org/documents/pledge.htm#google_vignette
