    New Flip Over

    i had a one man flip, and 2 man flip and a hub house that were all clam products. I now own those same sized houses but they have been switched to Otter. IMO otter is a better quality product. Most of my use is up on Winnipeg where conditions are more unpleasant. If I was only fishing out of my...

    Looking for mid-size pickup

    for the tasks you listed I would stick with a 1/2 ton. My previous job had me flying all over the country and renting trucks to haul my gear way out in the sticks. renting a full size truck on short notice was often not an option so I frequently had to go with a midsize. I had the colorado...

    Aluminum Trailers

    I'm leaning towards an Aluma 18' with slide out ramps. Little more expensive but seems very well built compared to some similar trailers like mission and H and H. Not crazy about the aluminum deck though.

    Aluminum Trailers

    I love that idea but I'm not seeing prices comparable to an open trailer. What make/model do you have?

    Aluminum Trailers

    If it wasn't for my need to haul a utility tractor I would go with a 14' aluminum. I currently have a 14' steel (big tex) and tracked ranger fits easily. In fact, I pull it all the way forward and have room to wedge my Otter Lodge behind the ranger. Nice not having to wrestle that heavy bitch in...

    Chevy 2.7 turbo

    I have one in my work truck but only because our fleet manager has been having such a hard time finding what we normally order (Ram) so started buying random truck configurations. It is fairly peppy. I don't pull often and when I do it is smaller trailers around town. A few weeks ago I did pull...

    Your 1st guns?

    First gun I can remember shooting (other than BB gun) was my brothers Remington 572 Fieldmaster pump 22. First gun that was actually mine was an H and R single shot 12 guage that kicked like a mule followed closely by a marlin model 60 22. First gun I purchased myself was my brothers mosberg 500...

    Aluminum Trailers

    Looking to make a jump from a 14' single axel steel trailer to a 18' tandem axel aluminum. Wood or aluminum floor? Wood is cheaper, dent resistant and likely not as slippery when wet/snowy. Aluminum floor would last forever in theory but is more expensive. Use would be for hauling a tracked...

    Bleeding Fish

    Can you explain this a little more? I feel like if you do it only a couple minutes before cleaning it's no issue at all. I wouldn't do it an hour before and then just let them sit in the warm water. In that scenario they would spoil

    Bleeding Fish

    I've started doing it and it makes a huge difference in both the quality of the fillet and also when you go to clean them you dont have a half filleted fish flopping and flinging blood all over the place. Best way I've found is about 10 minutes before I load the boat I take the fish out of the...

    Back to Lake Winnipeg?

    I can't wait to get back up there! I did make two trips last year after taking a year off. I feel like the glory days are over but it's still way better than any lake around here. By far my favorite lake to ice fish.

    What is your dream boat?

    Running an 1850 Reata now, would love to upgrade to a 2050 Reata or 2080 angler. I need a boat that is a good mix of fishing/watersports for about another 5 years. After that I'd say a warrior 208 would be at the top of my list. Or any other 21' deep V that has a ton of room behind the...

    Worst text sent by mistake...

    Not a text but on a Webex (video conference call) that was not going so well where we were getting some bad news on material shortages I started sending a PM to a coworker that said something like "my fucking head is about to explode" and some other choice comments about the other party on the...

    Scheels shooting in Eden Prairie

    when BPS took over cabelas they required trigger locks on all guns. When I asked why I was told by an employee this same thing happened at one of their stores so they made it a company policy to not be allowed to take the trigger locks off until they are leaving the store. I hope scheels does...

    Possible collector?

    My first vehicle was an 86 Silverado with a 305 and an automatic this same color. Called her "The Candy Cane". Lots of fond memories in that truck!
