5 gal bucket with a Walmart bubble box. 2 D cell batteries will run a bubble box for 3-4 days straight. No ice, the temp fluctuations shock them too much. As long a there's bubbles there will be oxygen disolved into the water. But still try to keep them cool, in the shade, etc.
After reading this...I realized I know one of these assholes...and then realized what else he does to promote psychotic angry outbursts from otherwise normal citizens. He's the asshole that speeds up when you're passing him on the highway, he's the asshole that walks into a restaurant 5 minutes...
If I ever get terminal, I'm running one over. Dipshits in Minot feel the need to ride on the main roads during rush hour.

I don't get it, they're just exercising...wtf you gotta do it on the busiest street?
I'm too lazy to read thru prior posts, but has anyone mentioned a jaw spreader yet?
Idk how many god damn times I've had a pike in the bottom of the boat with it's jaws locked up on a 9 dollar crankbait, Tangled in the net, that I can't begin to unfuck because the bastard won't open it's mouth.

Fish the garrison dam area, from government bay to the marina at sakakawea state park. You can catch them shallow through the spring until the water warms up and they go deep. They don't come shallow again till the lake cools and turns over around Labor day weekend in September.
Depends on who you ask...the pier rats were having a good time shoulder to shoulder with a school of 12-16" walleyes on the walls, the tourists were having a blast trying to get the carp n buffalo they could see to bite, and this pier rat had a good luck catching some nice pike on a big rubber...
I cleaned one to smoke once, their meat is dark and oily, brownish color. Never did get around to smoking it.
I finished off that whitefish tonight, breaded n fried, pretty awesome. I'd say slightly better than walleye, but doesn't matter since I'm lucky to catch one a year.
Casting the tailrace last night I caught a 4-5lb whitefish. I've heard they're really good smoked, so decided to keep it for a taste test. Bled it out right away, got it home and started to fillet. I assumed the meat would be dark and oily, like most popular smoking fish, salmon, mackerel...
