The youth mentoring program does apply to non residents. I used it with my grandson for years until he got to old.

if you would go with the double gun option keep in mind that the stocks of most of them are cast [curved] to accommodate right handers. Some are straight stocked like the Browning Citori.

And it up sending the guy instructions on how to wire money into my account. Never heard from again.

I’m not worried about the purchase itself,it’s completely legal.The problem would be paying for a $1000 gun with a bogus money order. It can take 10 days for a money order to clear.I’m no sure how it wuld go down but it seems real suspect to me.

I guess you would prefer some corporate advertiser with an agenda paying for the information you recieve.

The installers that I know around here seem to like Hayfield windows. Made to order, Moderately priced, with all the features you want. I put them in my house 10 yrs ago and have been very happy with them.

fished in very southwest corner of the state. Around Worthington area. lots of fish shallow already. caught lots of small 14 inchers, with a few good sized eyes around 20 in as well. seems like the fish were really schooled up

Which lake were you on? I grew up in that area

Hey me too! I grew up in Windom. How bout you guys? Bit of a drive form Worthngton but I’m going to guess Loon Lake.

Als has been putting etecs on my Lund’s for years. There is a charge for swapping out the throttle ass. But I think it ends up a horse apiece with the motors.

Mark I think I have a waterspike in my garage. Get ahold of me next time your in Alma. Your welcome to try it out if you like.

Mark, I’m going to be in the market for a new pup as well. What can you share about them?

I didn’t say there were any fish here I just said the landing was open

Wood or plastic? Where are you located?

I haven’t heard anything about the lone outdoorsman in years. Yes I am he.

I bought one of them on sale units at Fleet Farm couple of days ago. I got it put together and out on the ice for a trial run. There definitely will be a learning curve as far as easily setting it up. Thanks for everyone’s help

Thanks for the links

Not only weight but guality and`ease of set up.

There is a guy in Windom that might be able to help. He is a collector an dealer and restores a lot of knives. I don’t have his contact info at hand but his last name is Ward. Windom is pretty small there couldn’t be too many.

What are your plans?

Also the gerbers

Mark, got a extra seat for me?

Wally Scharr once told me his account of the blizzard. Wally had come in early after getting his clients into the best duck hunt of their lives. After taking care of his hunters and the ducks Wally went down to the boat landing where a group of men had gathered, they were discussing going out on a rescue mission. No one was willing to go out and risk their own lives to maybe save someone. Wally swore he could hear voices crying for help when the wind was just right. Finally he couldn’t take it anymore and took a boat that was more stable than their duck skiffs from the C.O. E. Station. He talked another guy into helping and out they went. He was right he followed the voices and brought back 12 or 13 men some living and some dead. The ones that were able to survive had been able to build and mantain a fire. One of the survivors was the president of a big co. in Chicago. Every year after that on nov. 11 he flew Wally and his wife to Chicago to be wined and dined to show his gratitude. Wally was one of the gruffest most insensitive men I ever knew but when he told about bringing in the bodies of the hunters who didn’t make it he had tears running down his cheeks. Anyway that’s one account of nov. 11 1940.

For a long time I used a lawn chair lounge that I spray painted and covered up with a camo sleeping bag that I blended in to match the field. I got a lot of ribbing at first but it worked great and super easy to take my shots. It got left out in ND or I’d still be using it.

I would like to reiterate very strongly that eye protection be worn at all times. I didn’t and have spent the last 35 yrs blind in one eye. A good pair of chaps are really nice for helping keep warm dry and legs from getting scratched up.

Sounds like a fire waiting to happen to me.

Nice pics. Are your dogs Deutsche Dratts or are they American bred?

In a pinch I have gone to the local shooting range and mined lead from the backstops. Stained glass co. usually have some lead.

Hamm that’s a really good question and a simple one to answer. Basically it the same as you would offer anyone else. Don,t invade their space. If you enter an area where waterfowlers are, decoys or shooting e.t.c. leave. There are lots of places for fishermen to do their thing while waterfowlers spots can be limited. Besides usually they would be there first.
