    This was fun...........NOT!!!!

    Darn Good Huntin' Dog needs a home

    Posting this for a good friend of mine and can personally vouch for this dog. I've hunted behind him in Idaho for my first Chukars and for Huns. Damn fine animal!!! I'm not a pointer guy or I would take him myself. A proven performer in the field and in the home. To those who peruse the...

    Deer Bonus Points..Who's Got What???

    Got out done in the Turkey woods by my little girl.

    My daughter had today off from school and a turkey tag in her pocket so off we went at 4am to find her a bearded turkey. We arrived to a beautiful sunrise and the birds already on the ground and in full strut across the canyon. The landowner had built my daughter and I a blind the week before...

    In-Fisherman must have sold the farm to Berkley.

    I have been watching lots of what seem to be more like 3am outdoor infomercials than sportsman shows due to the weather recently and good grief does In-Fisherman push Berkley and the other Pure Fishing Product Names. I get the magazine as well with the same song and dance. They used to use...

    Some Rainy Day DIY projects.

    Love the rain, but if being outside takes some intestinal fortitude, a guy has some time to putz around with the "Low on the totem pole" type projects. Here are a couple of mine that I have been killin' time with the last couple days..... Since I've been turkey hunting the last couple of years...

    2 person ladder stands

    My daughter wants to start bow hunting so I'm in need of a 2 person ladder stand. I like the guide gear double rail stand right now, but also have a couple big game stands and gorrilla stands on the table. Looking to stay under 200 bucks, with safety and stability topping the list of required...

    Question for you "Lead Heads" out there.

    I was melting down some "donated" lead and had a gold colored metal separate from the lead on top. This metal turned grey as I skimmed it off the top and it cooled. Does anybody know or have an idea of what this metal might be?? My first thought was tin, but I'm not a metallurgist by any...

    Yetti Ice Houses?????

    Got a fair to midlin' chance at a 6.5 X 12 open floor plan ramp door 2015 model Yetti Ice House and would like the good, the bad, and the ugly about these things. Not really interested in a comparison or argument over which wheel house is better. I don't have a choice here. It's this Yetti or...

    Good Idea for Swimbaits or Not???

    Been screwing around with jig hooks to see if I can get more and better hook ups while using swim baits. The recommended hook size for a standard 1/4 oz jig is the #2/0, which is the bottom jig, but I bought some #3/0 long shanks to see if they might be better on a swim bait. The question is...

    You just CAN'T make this stuff up.............

    Let me set the stage first. I was muddin' today in the same spot I was yesterday when I tagged those nice walleyes. I was casting up current with my bobber rig and minnow and letting it drift down. I had been there for about 2 hours with nothing to show for it when another land based...

    What keeps plastics on the Jig better??

    While making jigs, a guy has some time to think about jig related issues and I was wondering if those wire keepers, a single lead barb, or a double lead barb hold plastics better. I have always used a single lead barb, but I haven't really used anything else, so I have no frame of reference...

    Do RED hooks make a difference??

    Made a bunch of jigs with red hooks and was wondering how many of you folks think red hooks make a difference?? They cost over twice what a regular hook does, so I'm wondering if the cost is worth it.

    Foxes and Skunks?????

    On my snare line this year I have released 6 foxes and ALL OF THEM reeked of skunk. Do they share winter dens, kill them and eat'em, or search 5 counties until they find a dead one and roll on'em for hours?? I'm not sure a fox can take out a skunk, but I've seen and experienced their teeth and...

    DIY Jig Painting.

    I've been asked about painting jigs so I thought I'd put together how I color mine as my daughter (the hand model) and I have been having a BLAST painting jigs the last few days...... Here are the pieces and parts I use. I use a chip bag clip to hold the jig as using a pliers tends to have...

    Fishing Kayak Input Requested

    I'm going to get a fishing kayak in the near future to take muddin' as I know of lots of awesome spots that I can hit with a shore launched kayak. I'm leaning toward the Jackson Big Rig for it's stability and the fact that I can put a power pole micro anchor system on it or a trolling motor on...

    Mother Nature can be such a BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Watched this deer last night and got a knot in my stomach while doing it. Didn't set well with me and I DON'T like watching NATURE take it's course sometimes. She pisses me off at times and being a spectator SUCKS sometimes. That's about all I want to say about it. (rant over)
