    Food plot attachments

    A lot of plots can be done without breaking ground, especially if you spread seed before a rain. A sprayer is a must for this type of plotting. Works pretty well without churning up a bunch of rocks, especially for small seeds.

    Wool socks

    There are few that will agree with you, but I've worn a lot of cotton tube socks too.

    New One Man Boat

    If that's your style of fishing you would put your live transducer on the motor. To "look around" with the livescope you just rotate the motor with the foot control.

    New One Man Boat

    Yea, the pics you see are probably from demo mode, like the units rolling in Cabela's or elsewhere. Unless you are going to do spot lock, I wouldn't use a pole, put it on the trolling motor. When I fish I want to have a rod in my hand, not a trolling motor remote in one and operating a...

    New One Man Boat

    Get a Garmin with LVS34 livescope transducer. I would use a 12" for livescope. I'm sure Humminbird with Mega live 2 is better than the original, which was all but useless. I guess it's possible they are neck and neck even. I find it odd that you still see pros and others that are all...

    New One Man Boat

    If you want FFS, get a Garmin. Lowrance is in last place in that market. If you want great charts/mapping, get Humminbird. When I crappie fish I use braid with a fluoro leader. Tie a double uni-knot, it's simple, small, and strong.

    Otter trapping

    Kill them all. They aren't tough to trap, you just have to understand they are pretty transient. If there are multiple bodies of water in the area or a river / stream, they move in and out a lot.

    Tractor issue

    If the old battery went six years without issue, seems odd that new battery would go dead from a draw. Have you done a load test on the new onYou could have just got a bad one?

    Should I Put Out Scent?

    Sounds like you just need to kill him if he's there all the time. Don't do anything to screw it up....

    Favorite Calibers?

    That is my front-runner. I want an AR platform rifle. May do a SBR, perhaps a 12-14" barrel.

    Favorite Calibers?

    What's a good short/medium range hog rifle? Thinking about supressed, sub-sonic, as well.

    3D Printing Advice

    Some of the iPad Pros and iPhone pros have LIDAR incorporated. Before I retired we used an iPad pro to scan crashed vehicles on traffic homicide investigations. The data could then be used in many areas including 3D printing small scale exhibits of the vehicles. I scanned a lot of vehicles...

    To be named later Montana farm

    Very cool. I love MT and WY. I had a big game combo this fall and didn't fill either tag. I bow hunted elk and could have shot a mule deer from near the road, but didn't seem like the sporting to do so I passed. Hope to draw again last year. The rivers are like deer magnets in that part of...
