    MSU Bobcats National Championship

    NDSU has been very interested in moving to the FBS level of college football in recent years but no offers to join a conference. This year they lobbied hard to be admitted to the Mountain West when Boise State left, but the invite went to North Illinois. Not sure if Montana State has any such...

    MSU Bobcats National Championship

    It was a great game. We’re Bison fans but I expected Montana State to win this one. The NDSU coach mentioned after the game the Missouri Valley Conference & I think playing in it every week makes a difference. Montana State is an impressive team. Especially their quarterback.

    Alaska fishing trip HELP

    I have fished for salmon and halibut off the coast of Alaska twice. Both times out of Seward, which is a beautiful town and area. There are many boats/captains that operate daily during the season. Some will offer, “combination”, salmon and halibut trips. I recommend avoiding those. Fish for...

    Yellowstone Park in June, any suggestions on where to stay?

    At Slough Creek or Pebble Creek? And you just logged in to Recreation.gov, and were able to secure the date(s) you wanted? First or second try?

    Yellowstone Park in June, any suggestions on where to stay?

    In my opinion/experience, the early morning drive was much easier. Try to make reservations and you’ll see why.

    Yellowstone Park in June, any suggestions on where to stay?

    Pebble Creek has not been open since the flood. Last summer (August) it did not look like it would be open again this year. The last year it was open it was mostly reservations only through Recreation.gov. But there were some first come first serve sites. Reservations for all park campgrounds...

    What age to start fly fishing?

    12 is a good age to start. Kids today have a big advantage with all the instruction videos available on-line. But there is no substitute for spending time on the water casting, fishing and observing. And he doesn’t a $500 or $1,000 rod to start. Many entry level rods are of good quality.

    Fly fishing bobbers that stay put?

    I fish dry flies or dry/droppers most of the time but when I do use an indicator (or bobber) I use the Dorsey system that is simply a poly yarn through a loop created by one of the tiny rubber band’s orthodontists use for braces. I do not have trouble with it moving/sliding, probably because...

    Iowa/LSU Women’s BBall tonite

    NDSU women had a really good season this year, eventually losing to Minnesota in the NIT. Their best player was a 6’3” guard from Minnesota who shot about 50% from beyond the three point line. After their season ending loss I heard her talk about how the team was like, “family” and how much she...

    Iowa/LSU Women’s BBall tonite

    Iowa, or anyone else for that matter, could not contend with the size of South Carolina. Add to that the 3 point shooting they (SC) got today, and they’re not going to lose.

    Iowa/LSU Women’s BBall tonite

    I stopped watching NBA basketball a long time ago because of what I perceive to be a lack of effort, particularly on defense. If you doubt that, watch ESPN’s Sports Center some time when they show clips of a few college men’s games, immediately followed by clips of NBA games. If you are old...
