    A Navy Veteran’s perspective on racism

    I'm well aware of history and the fact that people have enslaved and subjugated people all over the globe through out time all the way up to this day. I don't think you need to feel guilty about it. I certainly don't. I'm not going to apologize for the sins of the past. I can recognize them...

    A Navy Veteran’s perspective on racism

    As far as the OP one of my first thoughts was about what kind of reaction a person of color would get if they were out fishing while open carrying around here. I don't think the author is packing cause of bears. I see a good number of black people fishing around here but only know of a couple...

    Mice out

    Big deal is keeping it super clean with no food at all. A big part of it too is where it's sitting. If on bare grass or ground it will be hard. If on gravel or a pad may want to consider expanding the area of open hard ground around trailer. But that's not the end of it. I get rodents in...

    Monster Pike what's Your Favorite Lure ?

    Northland Jaw breaker spoon. A wire or at least heavy braid leader is strongly suggested. I usually tie on a leader of 80lb power pro but you have to check it after each fish. You can use a frog but pike trash them quick. A weed less swim jig with twister tail is also good but if it's scummy...

    Ford 3.5L EcoBoost

    I think the 10 speed tranny is the main difference in MPG. I think 2015 for the 10 speed is correct. I can do better if I really try but who wants to do that? At first I missed the exhaust notes of the 5.0 in my 2012 but the turbo spooling up has really grown on me. I have a 4 banger honda...

    Ford 3.5L EcoBoost

    I really like the performance of the 3.5 in my 2014. Only 60K on it. Had to do the throttle body at about 45K. Performance is great for me reliability is still in the back of my mind. Wish mileage was better but I think they built an unrealistic expectation of fuel economy. My wife has the...

    Trolling Motor Woes

    Never had such a problem. Always use minnkotas and have two with over 15 years on them still going strong. Do you leave your motor out and in the water all the time?

    New Pup

    Everyone's been warned. Sometimes boys have to learn the hard way. My wife would probably celebrate if she trashed my crocks.

    New Pup

    With all the extra time being spent at home lately and my waterfowl itch beginning to resurface I finally caved and agreed to bring another dog into the house. Meet Stormy. 7 week old Female. Not as in Stormy Daniels or any other stripper. I read this book as a kid and it did a lot to fuel my...

    Travel Trailer Size and Road Limitations

    What's the tow vehicle? 1/2 or 3/4 ton? I've made a few long pulls with our 31' and 2104 f150 long wheel base and max tow. Including a trip across ND part of Montana, Wyoming and back across SD. Got lucky as far as the wind goes but still wasn't fun. Mileage sucked. Having comfortable...

    Another mouth to feed . . .

    For half a second thought about naming our incoming pup "Stimi" as in a good pup costs a stimulus check and then some.

    Whatcha buyin with your COVID Cash?

    Yes sir. I was a little concerned at first about going outside of the standard 3 colors. A little research took care of that. I'm thinking this ones hair will blend nicely with our floors. Wish we only had a week. Family is going nuts.

    Dogs from a "non-breeder"

    Best lab I've ever had was a discount runt from a breeder. That was back in my college days but could'nt swing his price at the time. I left him my number and he called me later offering me the "runt" at a big discount. He was a sorry looking sight as he had been whipped on by the rest of the...

    Illinois Shotgun for deer

    Plenty of good suggestions and info here. I will add is once you pick some thing you will likely need to try several brands of slugs to find an accurate set up. Whatever works is good. I will say Hornady slugs would be my last choice because of terminal performance. For what it's worth my...

    Boat Question

    Here are the specs if you had not seen them. http://www.boats.za.net/boat-specs.aspx?boat=Nautic-Star-200SC-Sport-Deck-2004&bt=33000 So it's a 20' deck boat. Rated for a 150. I wouldn't think skiing behind it would be much of an issue. Maybe have to drop the prop pitch especially if you...

    Replacing Gas Line in Dutchmen Tent Trailer

    This. I have a hard time believing the main lines would be plugged. Check the regulator and any check valves. I've seen both go bad and prevent flow.

    Refilling "Disposable" Bottles of Propane

    I've been looking at that too. Online reviews I've seen are mixed. I have a buddy that uses one and he says it works well.

    Coronavirus and CWD

    At this point I am more concerned about what CWD means for herd numbers and health. Hearing what Michael Osterholm had to say about CWD on Rogan was a little concerning. I'll probably make an effort to have me deer tested once it is confirmed in the areas I hunt. I hope some day there will be...
