Just a couple days ago I said to a buddy that after the muzzle loader season (this coming week) I am looking forward to the hard water. "ME TOO!!!!!" says he.

So you do this in the fridge? When I make candied salmon, I just let it air dry for an hour, on the smoker racks, before I smoke it. Doug

Brian, you know you can hang them in the smoker from the get-go, right? They drip on the tinfoil, and you don't need to clean your crisper............... Doug

That's a long ways from K-town! I withdraw my ask. But thanks, bud! Doug

OK, so it's a lost cause not a worthy one. But what's in a name, eh??? 😉

tagged for interest. Like 2024.................

Thanks. He and I "know" each other, so I reckon he will be in touch if he still has something to donate to a worthy cause. 😉

The Memorial Tree at our hunt camp, where we have our 11 November ceremony every year. The bottles are "dead soldiers" and each poppy has a name on it. The beer can was a commemorative Legion brew, and the cap was from a departed buddy who was a submariner.

I think you look pretty civilized.............

I surely do miss that...................😢 Doug

Dibs on any leftovers?

Sounds delicious!

That hunter knew what he/she was doing!!! Beautiful grouse breasts, no bullet marks and the cleaning job was spectacular. Never in my life had two full grouse for a supper!!! I'm envious! Doug

Chris, orca or beluga?

Cliff, please see my pm. Doug

or buy the gizmo that allows you to refill the small bottles from a 20 lb tank...................

Same. And good folks to deal with when you are broken down at the side of the road.

and keep your air vents OPEN if you are running the heater!!! Especially if you bank the walls with snow. I find the 2 to 3 person shelters are just about right for one angler with 2 ice holes.....

me neither. Mind you, I have never fished for them.............😁

I bet the original word rhymed with witch and started with the letter b.... 😉

but on a more serious note, is it possible that the whale sightings were in fact giant sturgeon?

Guilty. reminds me of a limerick: "Said the mythical king of Siam, For women I don't give a damn. For a fat-bottomed boy Is my pride and my joy. They call me a buggar. I am."

No intoxicants onboard? 😁

Precisely. And yes, I have had this happen a number of times, mostly on an ATV hauling a trailer on rough terrain. Tighten the nut too much and it is a serious PITA to remove the coupler from the ball. Leave it too loose and you already know what happens. But a bumpy ride can loosen the nut off, all by itself.

Yep, I used to tell my wife that wearing the suit would make it easier for them to find my body in the spring..............
