Almost all of my walleye fishing is done on wilderness lakes in MN and right across the border in Ontario so I don’t have much experience on heavily pressured lakes. Many of the lakes in the Boundary Waters that don’t get much fishing pressure are not nearly as productive as some of the well...
Coyotes continue to thrive no matter how hard we try to kill them. It’s somewhat admirable. We have a 3 legged yote that we feed at work. I kind of like the thing, he keeps the geese away. Now he has a big fishing lure stuck in him. I’m sure there was a lot of alcohol involved in someone’s plan...
I sold my boat and I’m in the market for a new boat. I know what I want, Lund SSV 18 tiller. The price that a salesman at a dealership quoted me was basically the same price if I build it on Lunds website. Am I wrong to think that the salesman can get me a price that’s a little less than what is...
My turkey gun is a Maxus II in Browning vintage camo. I looked at a lot of shotguns before I bought the Maxus, my other shotguns I’ve purchased used but I wanted one nice one.

I hunted for about 4 hours today and didn’t see a single grouse. Hopefully it was just a bad day and not an indication of how the season is going to go.
Go to a shop a shoot a bunch of bows. Buy the bow that you like/shoot the best. It might be a Bear, Prime, Hoyt, Bowtech, Mission, Mathews, etc. You will most likely fall in love with a Mathews 😃. I did anyway. Mission makes some really nice bows at a lower price point.
I’m not qualified to give elk hunting advice but if it were me I’d hunt the timber. Probably not going to see a bull standing out in the open. Also, learn to bugle. If you’ve used diaphragm calls for anything else, cow calls, turkeys, etc., it will only take a hot minute to learn a simple bugle...
