If the Twins hang on to win they will be tied for first

Congrates!

A buddy Big Werm and I went to school with coaches at Sartell. Sounds like they have a good program and consistently finishing well. His son is a good shooter as well. As it’s been said on IDO before, wish these activities were around when I was in school!

Also, my wife’s mom and two of her aunts have dies from lung cancer. All had smoked in the life. Wife’s step dad was just diagnosed with lung cancer. He is a smoker. We lived with mother in law as she was going through it and not something I would want to go through.

Its super gross. Its never prosecuted so that is why. I always feel bad though at the same time. I couldnt imagine what its like to be a slave to a substance like that.

My father in law got pulled over because he flicked a cig out the window of his vehicle. Got a dui because of that.

Kind of funny, our neighbor has domesticated turkeys. They have a descent size yard and butts up to a nice stand of oaks that the wild turkeys hang out in. The wild turkeys and domesticated often hang out together in the yard. Just this morning, one of the wild and domesticated were strutting in the yard. I should see if I could borrow a domesticated as a decoy!

I use similar to what Matt uses except they are called Rustic River. Made in St. Joe MN by a family with a couple brothers Big Werm and I went to school with. I’ve been a fan and as mentioned by Matt, don’t over load them. They take up little space but can fit quite a few lures in them. They different sizes to fit your needs.

The HOF is a museum for the history of the sport and Rose should be part of that history with his story. He’s a hall of fame player, no question. Just like the roid era, Bonds, McGwire, ARod, etc put them in but tell their stories. Can’t just ignore an era of a sport.

This is another hypocritical part of MLB. Rose has a section in the hall where it celebrates his hits record but he’s can’t be voted in.

I did not know that but yes very hypocritical!

I work with the brother of the Hibbing kid that laid the F bomb on occasion when up on the range. What makes it even funnier is they are a very religious family and highly unexpected coming out of one of their mouths! Especially on tv.

He’s in a better place, RIP. You did a great thing Randy Taking care of him. Now after things settle down, get out and enjoy the woods and water, much deserved.

Now that’s funny!

I didn’t realize Hibbing knocked off Hermantown! I like that, buddy has some grand kids in the program.

Sounds like we are going to lose it again next week.
This weekend is dubbed “bye bye carbides” because there’s no way I will miss the 3rd and potentially last weekend to ride around our place.

Kids and I put an about 80 miles yesterday and today, pleasantly surprised by how good the trail conditions were in the Crosby area. Could be it though looking at the forecast.

Nice B man, thanks for posting. Will have to try that process. I have the work sharp, wonder if that would sharpen auger blades? It can be used for all types of tools.

And as Grubson also said, pop your hood occasionally and check the oil.

Good practice I try to do is every time I’m fueling up is check the oil and other fluids.

I use the pony tail bands that the three ladies in the house hold leave around. this idea covers the hook better though.

The 3k mile oil change is far from dead for me and will keep doing so. Cheapest preventative maintenance you can do on a vehicle. 3k on the 2011 burb (225k miles) and 5k 2011 sonata (374k). Full synthetic oreilly brand for both.

And if there is lube already on it, clean that off good and put new stuff on

I wouldn’t worry about that, most tip ups come lubed up already.

It wouldn’t hurt to take them a part and lube them up if that is happening. What do they feel like when you spin them by hand? Should spin smooth. For a lube, I’ve been using Lucas. Been happy with it so far.

Im using the clam light bar in an otter lodge. It didn’t have the dimmer switch at the time but I added one. Super bright and lights up shack well. The clam came with different style clips so in could be mounted on crossbars of different brand shacks, which is where mine is mounted.

Went out yesterday with a buddy, fished half the day out of the north west side. Ended up keeping 10 plus caught quite a few small perch and walleye. We fished off of a flat a few hundred yards, hole hopping a little and just sitting in the portables. It didn’t really matter where we fished we were marking but a lot sniffers. Two biggest were 12”.

Not a single fish on a dead stick, all caught jigging with waxies and larvae. I’d say best bait was a gold vmc bull spoon with the bladed treble.

I think your close Musky on snow totals, I measured 6.5” on deck in Sauk Rapids.

Started sleds up for first time Wednesday night. Both started fine but one needed a new voltage regulator. $390 later it’s back in action. I think a rip is in order today!

Yup Tannerite and throw in a couple 20lb propane tanks! It’ll be fun I promise

I hunted exotic rams in Texas with a group of friends back in the day. It was a fenced in ranch but it was over 1000 acres of steep hills/mountains. We spent the first three days up in the hills chasing the “smart ones” that have been educated. They are tough to hunt even in a fenced in ranch, amazing how they can scale a mountain in a hurry. You also see the real dumb ones, which is what I shot on last day. I forget all the rams they had running around but I shot a Corsican, which was the cheapest option, like $260. At the time, that $260 covered the lodging too, which was great for broke ass college kid. My buddies dad shot some Afghanistan thing, don’t even remember the cost of that. On this ranch you could shoot essentially any animal you saw with the exception of whitetails. I’m not into game farms by any means but this was a cheap, fun trip with a group of friends. Ranch was somewhere south of San Antonio, couldn’t even tell you the name of it.

I think you would be the wrong one leaving Dutch.

What brand and size diesel heater is everyone running?

Nice Lindy, looks like a great day on the ice with the boy!

Been there B-man, shot my buck wearing crocs out of the ground blind this year.
