    Chicks

    We had a bunch the first week of November like that last year. "HEN HEN HEN HEN" BOOM. Somebody would catch a glimpse of white neck or some color or a cackle while everybody else was just seeing mostly drab color and no tail.

    KDWP app heads up

    Dad works out at a local gym and local game warden is often in there. He pointed out that the original KDWP app "HuntFishKS" is no longer functionall and you have to now use "GoOutdoorsKS". Frustrating to me having to change stuff around, but I guess the new one is cheaper for the state to...

    It Looks Grim

    Same here, graduated high school in 98, grew up catching the tail end slide of quail hunting around there, and pretty much by the time I was done with college and moved out of state in 2003 it was basically all over. Dad did say he heard 2 different bobwhites whistling last week behind the...

    If you could only pick one week...

    I've been on 2 SD trips, both times the first weekend of November for 4 days of hunting. T-shirts or long sleeves has been the normal wear. As a side note, don't ever get married the first weekend of November. It makes for some really quiet time at home following a 4 day trip. But man, did...

    It Looks Grim

    I didn't take his KDWP comment as blaming them for the fall in population, just their overuse of rose colored glasses as they try to spin the fall in population to maintain tourism dollars from out of state hunters.

    What is the best pair of boots you ever owned for hunting pheasants?

    My dads got them and really likes them. He put tuff toe on them when new. Hasn’t been used hard, 3 seasons? Couple hundred miles through heavy CRP grass.

    Walnut vs Synthetic stocks for the uplands

    I've got some synthetics, but wood all the way. There is no such thing as too nice, buy it, use it, treasure the memories.

    SD atlas- paper copy available?

    As others stated, you don't need cell signal to have full functionality with OnX. Download the map ahead of time, then you can even turn the cell signal off and it will still work just fine. I much rather use OnX than a paper map because I can always see exactly where I am. I often even draw...

    Bucket list trips!

    Those are sockeye/red salmon. When they come up river to spawn they quit eating. So the accepted method to catch them is “flossing”. You throw a fly line across river ahead of them. They’re swimming upstream with their mouth open. Line hits mouth and pulls the hook into the lip. I’d never heard...

    Bucket list trips!

    For those talking Alaska, go do it, you'll love every minute of it. I think we caught 10 different species of fish on our charter trip. Then did some flossing for salmon up the Russian River. I'd do it every year, but the wife thinks laying on a boring beach getting sand in everything is just...

    Hearing protection

    I have zero affiliation or experience, just found it informative and interesting---- The woman that founded this company was on a MeatEater podcast a while back. I found their discussion with her very informative. She doesn't sell one product, a one size fits all solution, but rather reps...

    Looking into a 16 side by side

    Lots of discussion on this on the 16 gauge forum several months back. Some were adamant like you that they’re on a 12 gauge frame. Some were adamant that when they dug in with IFG then FAIR in Italy that they were on a smaller frame. One guy had both a 12 and 16 and said visually the 16...

    Huberds Shoe Grease

    My millwright/welding buddies all use TuffToe on their boots to save the toes when kneeling on concrete. Dad put it on a pair of moc toe Danner’s 3 years ago and they still look new after miles of walking through CRP.

    Looking into a 16 side by side

    A couple of the less gussied up FAIR Isides are under or right at $2k and get good reviews. My dad has used a Dickinson (turkish) 16 for the last 10 years or so and likes it a lot, his primary gun. Seen several used Uggies in that range and they always get good reviews. They don't show up in...
