    Two fingers, Yeah buddy, those 4 piece rods are the best pack rods you can get. I use the St. Croix rods, they are mid range in price but I feel they are top quality. I use a 4 wt. rod for most of my pack trips. Sometimes I take the 5wt. There are alot of Grayling and some Golden trout in...

    Delw, When I lived there in the late 80's and early 90's there was one striper found dead on shore that weighed near to 70 lbs. Another time I read a story in the paper about a guy that was surveying the bottom of the lake when he saw something on his sonar that looked like a huge rock just off...

    Hunter Kills Grizzly Bear

    WOW!!! If this is true, wow. wow. I don't know what to say. How could a taxidermist make such a mistake, when it is so easy to determine the difference? WOW.

    Hunter Kills Grizzly Bear

    What happened to innocent until proven guilty?? Let's say YOU were hunting in an area where the Fish and Game said there has been no grizzlies for 25 years. You are up in a tree, looking down on the bear. It will be hard to determine a hump on the animal, let alone see claws or look for the...

Some times you just walk a little to far and it is easier to stay the night than stumble around in the darkness. I use a Kelty internal frame pack, not sure how...

    Bait for Coons

    Have you guys ever heard of this? I heard a story that you could drill a hole in a log,drive nails at an angle into the hole and put something shiny at the bottom of the hole, the racoon will try to grab it and when he does the nails stop him from pulling out his paw, and he is to stupid to let...
