  2. Well, it is a pretty wild night here. We had some venison sausages for supper, and my wife is doing dishes while I fart around on the computer. I might stay awake until 9 pm!!!😲 HNY folks! Doug
  3. Wolverine? NOT a bear Shoulder height seems low for a wild boar? Doug
  4. attaboy, BRIAN!!! And a Happy New Year to you as well! Doug
  5. Art, I have a pm this morning, which also appears to have been sent to others.  In case nobody else has told you, it is a new user, Silvia7116, who invites me to f*** him/her/it...........

    I assume you can go into my pm box and find it, and ban this scumball.

    Best regards, and Merry Christmas,

    Doug

  6. Whetting my appetite for sure! Thanks for sharing. Doug
  7. Would that be a parade where some of the participants wear rainbow colours? Brian has a real rainbow there for sure! Attaboy, Brian! Doug
  8. You want to see people going out on thin ice, Owen Sound in the late 80s/early 90s was the place to see anglers doing LUNATIC things like lying on the ice with their rod arm stretched out to a hole in half an inch of ice. Or KICKING a hole in the ice on the Pottawatomi River to fish running water below. NUTS.
  9. The earliest in a year that I ever ice fished was 19 November, in about 1979, on a lake up in the foothills around Pincher Creek, Alberta. The ice was crystal clear and you could see down to the bottom, down to about 15 to 20 feet, but not in deeper water. It was kind of spooky walking on that! Doug
  10. I was JUST thinking, I bet there is ice up there where limeyangler lives. I envy you that! Rifle season is done here for deer, and I might hunt the smokepole season I guess. But bring on the ice, I am ready! Doug
  11. Absolutely! I keep telling my buddy that he should bring back MORE than 50 pounds after his (annual) elk hunts. Doug
  12. My wife has been away for a bit, and I was at deer camp for a week, so I have been enjoying LOTS of wild game. But I rarely take pictures of my meals, even when my wife isn't around. (If she is, she wonders what the heck I am doing taking pictures of the food...) One dish I dreamed up and would make again was ground venison, cooked with diced vidalia onions, with green peppercorn sauce and acini de pepe pasta. First meal was all that mixed together. On the rebound, I took half of the leftovers, put it in a loaf pan, added a layer of shredded mozarella, a second layer of the meat and pasta mixture, topped it with a generous layer of mozarella, and into the oven at 325 for three quarters of an hour. Very toothsome. A hunting buddy shot a nice bull elk in BC this fall, and gave me some elk steak. I pan-fried it to just barely rare, then cooked a couple free range eggs in the pan juices. Those eggs had been collected less than a couple hours before they went into the pan. That one I did photograph. And for the record, I actually had a SALAD with it! Doug
  13. Hmmmm. My wife suffers from migraines, and has for her entire adult life. For about five years, the neurologists had her on various elimination diets. The worst one was no onions, tomato, or something (garlic, maybe)...........so I made food for her, and food for me and the kids. Lots of that stuff freezes just fine, so I would make a LOT of something she could eat, and freeze individual portions for her. Just sayin'....... Doug
  14. Tagged for interest. WOW, just freakin' WOW!!! Doug
  15. How did you like the cherry smoke? I use three pans of maple for my bacon. I do use cherry sometimes on other things, and had an awesome batch of cherry smoked steelhead a number of years ago. The bacon looks great, and reasonably lean. Did you trim the pork bellies? Doug
  16. Very good news, Dave, and I am sure lots of us here let out a big breath of relief to hear this joyful news. Doug
  17. Yes, now as I am looking at it on a computer monitor and not an itty bitty phone screen I can see that....... Doug
  18. Trying to look at this on a cell phone with old eyes...is that a VW Westphalia? Doug
  19. Wife and I are up in Oddawa looking after grandkids, and doing gluten-free stuff. The pantry and freezers are full to overflowing with ultra-processed stuff, hard to find anything I actually would enjoy eating. I did hit the grocery store yesterday so I could put on a brunch today with bacon and eggs, hash browns and other good stuff, plus some yellow and orange peppers AND canary melon and Santa Claus melon. Not that I ate any of that stuff... Doug
  20. I have been meaning to do this for some number of years, but never got a round tuit. But now I have one. 😉 Doug
  21. Just reading this now........what are you using for the soil? Doug
  22. I have two of them but I am in Kingston, ON.....
  23. "bass fishing" in the Minas Basin? I am guessing striped bass? I do not think I would want to be in a kayak, hooked up to a shark.....😲 Doug
