    Mrs. Fin is selling her walleye boat

    We’ve done a full detailing and spiffed up all the items on our Lund boat and Mrs. Fin says to give the Hunt Talk crowd a heads-up in the event someone here is in the market for a decked out used walleye boat. We are going to consign it next month if I can sell it on my own. Hunt Talk gets...

    Fresh Tracks Weekly - Point Schemes Disguise Tag Declines

    Marcus and I did this video, knowing that when draw results come out from a lot of states people will have all kinds of ways to revamp the point schemes we deal with. Almost like point schemes somehow create larger herds, which results in more tags - NOT! More animals in the hills goes a long...

    Fresh Tracks Weekly - Vote In Your Primary Election

    We always claim that our elections are a choice between the lesser of two evils. That surely can be, yet when only 20% of Americans vote in primaries the most rabid candidates have an advantage due to the hyper-partisan party loyalists voting in very high proportions compared to the rest of the...

    Bots and Colorado tag reissue list

    I had mentioned on a podcast that a person had approached me about using a bot to illustrate how easy it is to get tags on the CPW reissue list. He had proven the same on the website mentioned in the article linked below. He said he was as able to get any float permit he wanted, even when odds...

    MT EQC to determine corner crossing as "illegal"

    I had heard this was coming, but the release of the agenda this morning confirms such. Lt. Governor has taken it upon herself to determine that corner crossing is "illegal." She is doing this, absent any case or other legal finding beyond "because we/I said so." This is the effort in Montana...

    Conservation or Big Beautiful Ballrooms?

    Maybe being a former CPA who spends my spare time helping conservation groups causes me to be offended more than it should. Reading a Congressional budget recommendation this morning (I need to stop reading my old CPA newswires), I notice that Congress (Senate Amendment) is going to add $1...

    North American Pronghorn Foundation in Bozeman 5/16/26

    This is notice to the Hunt Talk crowd that if you are nearby and you want to do something fun on a Saturday afternoon, here's your chance. And hopefully raise a few bucks for the North American Pronghorn Foundation. I hope it snows that day so it cancels the plans of those going spring bear...

    Sen Mike Lee as AG?

    I just got some message from folks I know in DC. Seems there is a meeting today to convince POTUS that Utah Senator Mike Lee should be the next Attorney General. Not sure where having such a strident anti-public lander is least damaging to public lands; as Chair of the Senate Energy & Natural...

    Forest Service Reorg - Progress or Politics

    The USFS announced a huge reorganization yesterday. It will be the continual debate around running government like an efficient business, and in the process of such, how much is truly the desire for efficiency and how much is politics? National HQ will end up in Salt Lake City. Regions will be...

    Boat Buying Season?

    Something to get our minds off politics, policy, and other new headlines, I thought I'd make this post and invite others to post their boat season thoughts, purchases, or sales. I need a new boat like I need a new gun - Nice to have and if the right deal comes along, my "want" becomes a "need."...

    This will make you smile

    Those of you who are hockey fans probably had this show up in your feeds last night or this morning. Amazing. 104 year old WWII vet, Staff Sergeant Dominick Critelli, plays a rendition of the National Anthem that will make you smile, laugh, and possibly shed a tear as you think about all the...

    2025 - A Season to Remember (or forget)

    2025 – A Season of Distractions When we were getting ready for the 2025 season, I was very excited. After a long summer of too much politics/policy/DC travel, I wanted to get to the business of ignoring business. That excited feeling seems like twenty years ago. For those who adhere to TLDR...

    Montana 2026 Elk Proposal

    Most have seen the 2026 season setting proposals that have been put out for the FWP Commission meeting on December 4th. There is one elk-specific proposal that I hope folks find useful. It has to do with changes to units where elk are over objective and making some of the Elk B tags "Private...
