SD paddlefish
I don't know about SAD but in MT it all comes down to water flow. I think it's 22,000 cubic feet of water flow to trigger them.- D4570

Anyone else tired of tight groups with sandbags galore?
Every year before I get out much, I gather up all my "Hunting clothes" and give them a good spray of horse spray and let them air out for a day or two. Do you have your own routine just for ticks? Farnam Tri-Tec 14 Fly Repellent Active ingredients: cypermethrin, pyrethrins, piperonyl butoxide... -

358 winchester
