    tying up your boat

    Assuming the dock has cleats, I use a double overhand knot and put the loop under the cleat and then one side of the loop over each end of the cleat and yank tight. For poles I just feed the line through the loop made from the double overhand knot and then over the top of the pole. I put about...

    I thought of Eddie Murphy in trading places when I read the thread title. "Feeling Good Lewis!!"

    New years resolution

    I need way too many "Improvements" to pick just one so I'll have to settle for trying to be a better "Me" in the coming year.

    Braid to mono knot

    Nighttime sure does take the enjoyment factor up a notch. Every time I get a nest of fun I plan on bringing 2 or even 3 extra spools of line next time so I can just change the offending spool out with a new one, retie, and keep fishing. Then my brain kicks in and promptly forgets to do that...

    Braid to mono knot

    I use a small enough swivel that I can reel it through the tip. I sure don't make it a habit mind you, but I haven't chipped or broken a tip guide yet. If I do, I'll probably replace it with a titanium tip and press on. Current and the egg beater retrieve of an open faced reel seem to have a...

    Braid to mono knot

    I've never had complete confidence in line to line knots. I use a mini barrel swivel on the braid with a 2 - 3 foot floro leader when I go muddin'. It may not be the best way of going, but it hasn't let me down yet on any of the big fish I've tussled with, so I'll stick with it.

    Trout through the ice?

    This^^^ However, I would use the smallest minnow you can find and hook it VERY lightly on another rod and let the fish tell you what size bait they want.

    90 Year Old Man, E2 elk cow tag, Semi-Live Blog

    I HOPE I still have buck fever at that age. When I lose that, I think it's time to give it up. Still wished he could have connected though. I was pullin' for him and my hats off to him for having the drive and hutzpa to get after it. Very unique to have a patriarch that special...

    90 Year Old Man, E2 elk cow tag, Semi-Live Blog

    Well Crap!! I was hoping to see a pic on this deal. Well you can't say you didn't give it he ole college try. Sounds like a whole bag full of memories were made. He can't be upset with not getting an elk. You mentioned that he got a shot at one, but it didn't connect. Success in my book...

    within reason it can. I've been drinking Evan Williams. There was a sale. - - - Updated - - - I just saw what time it is. WTF? How did this happen? Just a guess, but I'd go with this................

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

    Might be a lost cause camoman, but what the hell. The Mrs. has taken a liking to her and it puts a smile on my face to see she's still kicking. The down side is that even if I can get her back in shape, I won't know it. I won't be able to tell which deer is her. She came in with another doe...

    Idea for Walleye Next Fall

    Nothing survives pike attacks for long. However, if pork can keep up with the white bass, bullheads, and smallmouth grabbing and trying to rip off the tails, I might just have a new favorite for jigging.

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

    Raggedy Ann is still with us, but it's getting tougher to pick her out.....and even looks to be puttin' some fluff back on her body. Added some sunflowers to the mix to increase the oil content of the bird food and it seems to agree with her. Anyway, thought I would give you guys and update as...

    Idea for Walleye Next Fall

    Not a bad idea there svn. A pork twister tail or minnow would work just fine in the Sheyenne. Might have to investigate the possibilities if the pork is tougher than traditional plastic. Bullheads and pike just plain TRASH plastics.

    Christmas gifts

    First I thanked God for the gift of his Son. Then I was fortunate enough to see my entire family over the course of a week and a good portion of my in laws, chased roosters with my dog on Christmas Day (got 2), had a blast exchanging gifts, and stayed out of debt.
