isn't it called asphalt? or is that to offensive sounds to much like a$$. your guess is as good as mine whenever it will stop From being in the state transportation industry, you have either bituminous pavement (blacktop) or aggregate pavement (concrete). So yes, they have removed all offensive connotations from our roadway material. We call them Tar roads (blacktop), gravel roads have several names (and what we have the most of) dirt, minimum maintenance, forestry rd, logging rd. Hwy 33 is all gravel.

The native's are at it up here. The Lake that my town of Squaw Lake was named after has been changed to Natures Lake, surprised the town has not been changed as well. I had the highway department out last year to get a driveway approach permit for a lot I purchased next door, he said if they announces my town as Squaw Lake they will be fired, they must announce it S.Lake. Funny thing is the Indians named most all the lake's in Minnesota. news.minnesota.publicradio.org/features/200104/30_robertsont_squawlake-m/

Do they still have that large pout fishing contest up there where they give away a new truck? No, they stopped it a few years ago. It was pretty much just a drunk fest but the reason they stopped it was because of the trash that was left on the ice after the events. Eelpout Festival, was held on Leach Lake.

Guys with the hounds sure put a spanking on them, one group killed 7. Good job fellas!!! What are these boys running for wolf dogs? I'd imagine big ol walker hounds. Either way I'm going to assume they drop a whole lot of them down at once to chase a wolf. Same to assume it isn't 13" black creek beagles???😃😃😃 LMAO, takes awhile to catch anything with a black creek bred dog...hahahahahaha! A lot of guys in Wisconsin own multipurpose dogs. Have friends that use the same dogs for bear, coyote, bobcat. Thats why I usually ran alone while running bear in Wisconsin. They dont run anymore than what they use for coyotes. Trick is to find a single track going into a section so they are not sending the jump dog into a pack of wolves.

BUDD: are you fishing for these for the meat if so how do you prepare them and what do they taste like? We take the loins and from the ribs back along the tail. We cut into nugget size, boil for 6 minutes, dip in garlicbutter.

Make sure the transom is solid and not cracked on the corners, can be replaced if wood is rotten. Can always mount swivel seats on the wooden seat that I believe are in that boat. Older boats like that I have always had a bracket welded up for a front mount trolling motor. Good luck, maybe have to bring it up here this summer on a fishing vacation!!

What size you looking at, length, width, square or V-nose? The small jon boats for me are as flippy as the small kayaks. For someone that only goes fishing a handful of times, on small bodys of water, river fishing, hard to beat a little 14ft deep-v.

Neascus. We call it Black Spot Disease. I will bet that he doesn't have Redear in his pond, or not enough of them, but he DOES have snails. How big is the pond, and I'll tell you how many Redear to stock. Life cycle: Eggs are released by fish-eating birds into the water. Eggs develop into intermediate stages of the parasite in snails. These free-swimming parasites penetrate the muscles of fish and encyst. Black pigmentation is deposited onto these cysts. Infected fish are consumed by birds where the life cycle starts all over again. Adult worms are seen in fish-eating birds. You might also see white or yellow grubs in the fish, snails are the intermediate host of them too. See yellow grubs in most yellow perch up here, I place fillets in pan of room temp water with a lite sprinkle of salt. Most of the grubs fall to the bottom of the pan. If not they fry up fine also...LOL
