    2023/2024 Trapping Thread

    I think it’s time for the annual trapping thread! I got a call from a farmer a couple weeks ago that needed help with some beavers. I finally found time to set some traps last week on Friday and on Saturday my son and my nephew came along to help me do the first check. Sunday I did another...

    2022/2023 Trapping Thread

    It looks like we need to get a trapping thread rolling this year so I’ll get it started. We have been in a really bad drought this year here with most ditches and small streams completely dried up. So, nobody is having beaver problems. With no public land around, that pretty much erases all...

    2021/2022 Trapping Thread

    Let's see some trapping pictures! Years ago I trapped a few beavers that were cutting down some nice ash trees. I hadn't thought about it much after I got rid of them until last year when I was called to get rid of some for a landowner. I jumped back in and soon got completely addicted and...

    Wood Duck Flank Feathers - Anyone need some?

    I shot a few woodies today and saved the flank feathers as I know they are nice for tying flies. If anyone wants them let me know and I’ll send them your way, no charge.

    Idaho Results Out?

    Ok, this is my first year applying to Idaho. Does this mean I drew my deer tag? My elk application says “Not Selected.” It’s hard to believe I did. Slim odds.

    Lost Tub of Gear on I-90

    Hey all. It's a long shot but a buddy of mine was returning from a bear hunt in Idaho. The ratchet strap holding the yellow/green tub of his hunting clothes came undone and it flew out on I-90 somewhere within about 3 hours east of Butte. If anyone came across it or heard of someone coming...

    Minnesota Moose - Blame it on the Deer

    http://www.startribune.com/deer-bringing-death-to-minnesota-s-moose/455232463/ An interesting article about the plight of moose on Minnesota. It makes perfect sense to me. It seems after a couple tough winters that thin the deer population, the moose stabilize. After the record numbers of...

    Changes to New Mexico Outfitter Pool

    It looks like New Mexico is considering changing their rules regarding the outfitter pool. Right now if you draw in the outfitter pool you are only required to be accompanied by your guide for a part of 2 days. You are then free to hunt unguided for the remainder of the season. The New Mexico...

    Manners Custom Stock - Tikka T3

    I have (reluctantly) for sale a Manners Composite Stock for a Tikka T3 (MCS-EHT). I bought this previously owned but never shot. I did mount it on my gun but did not shoot it with it on. I was going to get everything dialed in for an upcoming antelope hunt but, unfortunately, some unexpected...

    Lake Michigan Salmon

    A few weeks ago my wife traded weekends with a coworker and I suddenly realized I could squeeze a fishing trip in the last weekend in June. As it got closer, I kept an eye on the forecast and saw light winds out of the west. Lake Michigan would be our destination! My dad and I made our first...

    Researching a Hunt - Outfitter Camp Locations?

    Myself, my cousin, and my dad have decided to do a Wyoming elk hunt on a general tag this year. We have narrowed the location down to a unit in western Wyoming. This will be an archery hunt in mid-late September, though we may head back out for rifle season if it works. I've done all of the...

    1st Antelope Hunt - Wyoming Leftovers

    2015 started out with high hopes of drawing an elk tag, but as the dust settled in May from the chaos of the draw results I, along with my cousin, found ourselves tagless. The news wasn't all bad, though, as my dad and uncle drew a great NM archery tag for elk. My cousin and I would go with to...

    New Walleye Rig!

    After years of drooling over my dream boat, I finally pulled the trigger on it this past weekend. My dad and I are each in the process of selling our current boats (which never get used at the same time) and bought this one together. It should be great for our trips to Canada for lakers...

    They're Back!!

    I finally made it out last night for the first morel hunt of the year. I didn't have long to look but stumbled into the right spot and filled up a bag full in no time. It was an incredible patch that I wish I could have gotten a picture of, but I didn't have a camera or my phone with me...

    2014 New Mexico Elk Hunt

So, I figured I'll post up my 2014 archery elk hunt for any interested in following along. 2014 started out with the disappointing news...

    2014 Montana Leftover Tags??

    Any bets as to if there will be any? I've got my app in for NM right now. I can't afford the expense and time if I draw NM and MT. My hope is that there will be leftovers again this year. Anybody want to venture a guess as to if there will be? I plan on coming out mid September to chase...

    Would I be nuts to try my own wolf?

    I was drew a wolf tag in my home state of Minnesota this past fall. On my 5th day of hunting I was lucky enough to call in and shoot this 117 pound male. I originally was going to just do a rug as money is pretty tight right now. I was contacted by a taxidermist who wanted to do the wolf for...

    Wyoming Range Grizz

    Hey all, I'm planning my first elk hunting trip (archery) for this coming September. One of the areas I'm considering are the general areas in the Wyoming Range. Being from MN I'm completely comfortable with wolves and black bears, but the grizz have me a bit concerned. Obviously there could...
