Anybody tried or heard anything on the Green Diamond tires with the carbide granules? Maybe a just be a gimmick.

Adam, I know the pain. I looked for over a year for a boat while there was probably 10 boats on this forum's classifieds all east of the Mississippi. I had a bad case of the duck boat envy with great boats only 3000 miles away. Finally found one just driving down the road one day. You should...

Rich, I will have to buck the tend on this one. Tried the "Baja Tested" BFG ATs KO on my old 4 Runner a couple of years back. I had poor results in the snow and ice. I think they are good looking, quiet enough and are good mileage tires, however I had two different tires develop slits on the...

Jon, Welcome aboard. You will have a great diversity of habitat to enjoy, with spending some time on both sides of the mountains. I lived in the Columbia Gorge years ago and had some memorable hunts there, but the eastside has some great hunting in the upland and waterfowl arena. Although the...

Tod, you may have already thought of this but give it look. Put that boat building skill to work and you can customize it to your needs. Could a guy build one on trailer base? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dil4_PzS9mA

Eric, Friends in Idaho have an annual Sausage Fest, which I haven't attended for while but threaten to. Mostly a wildgame sausage (no antelope or gamey meat allowed) sometimes temmered with pork or turkey. I think they have processed over 400 # in a day and make wide variety of sausages. I...

Gary, that boat looks as tight and tidy as everything in the background. Wasn't there a post awhile back about your wife thinking you had a problem? More evidence I would say. Great job! Thanks for the info on the grass.

Aaron, I am interested and will give you a call.

I would 2nd TimJ second suggestion.

Mark, I have a 2001 F150 Supercrew, 17mpg on the highway. It has been a good vehicle, so I am thinking of hanging on to it and going with Toyota Rav4 4x4 with V6 3500 # pulling and ~26 mpg on the highway. Just another 4-wheel drive car, but the gas mileage could kill this fall and I easily...

Thanks for the welcome, folks. Just sitting hear killing time waiting for a soccer game and listen to my son practice guitar. Acoustic only "Smoke on the water" and Green Days "Good riddance". That first one will be in my head all day. I plan on looking at used boat today, and have call...

Need some help with info on boats made by Duck Boats Unlimited, Inc. out of Spring Valley, CA. I am looking at a 1980's 12 ft boat. The company is out of business, but I have the specs on it. Does anyone have any experience with these boats? It states the boat is 7-layers Composite "Sandwich"...

Hello all, I will start off by saying I have bird dogging this site off and on for many years (maybe 10 years) and am now trying to come clean by joining in the fray. In the past, I had to sneak on my wife's home work computer, which she claims I would invariable leave behind unwanted worms...

Peter, I have been using the plastic cement pan to get my shorthair out of the water for the waiting period for the same reasons you suggested. Where I setup on the Columbia the water can fluctuate a bit, so at times, the water may exceed the height of the sides of the pan fairly rapidly. I...

Matt, I have done a fair amount of electrofishing using a variety of contraptions from whitewater Smith-Root pimped out jetboats to backpack units. Most of the work has been in flowing water. We put together a cataraft unit as push barge on set of 12 ft Sotar tubes. We float to the survey area...

Tom R, looks like sound advice all around. I am recently back from my annual Idaho deer hunt, where my Idaho hunting buddies have been running a little tent city for 10 years. They are possessed by the "30 point buck" and prep all year for this thing. We had about 5 cords of wood ready to burn...
