Drove by the Spring Lake Store for the first time last week after taking a mattress to the dump. I'm like "Uh oh, Smurf territory." Bear took out the in-laws crab apple tree 3 weeks ago on the south side of Jessie.

Glad to hear all is well. Sugar free gum and candy can also be deadly for dogs.

Yea, I threw in the micro X-Rap for shiats and grins. I'm just looking to hook into something big over deep water........Walleye, Pike, Laker, and I've heard that some big Smallies even follow the bait pods over deep water in this lake.

Fleet was the last place I picked some up a couple months ago. Gander? You could give The Modern Sportsman in Burnsville a call and see if they are able to restock regularly at this time.

Been running these two over deep water (100-150ft) the last two falls during midday booze cruises while camping, no luck yet, but I'll once again give it a go in a few weeks. Husky Magnum 25' X-Rap Magnum 30'

.

Just watched a Mink bound across the ball field out back in the midday sun, then reach my yard and take a 15 minute nap in the cool shady grass. It was out cold, hence the close pic. When it awoke, it bounded across the patio and thru the neighbor's yard and on its way. First ever mink spotted in the yard in over 25 years.

I know it always comes down to pitching, but man...........that lineup will keep you in most any game.

We're team BTU.

"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again."

Mrs. Duff would like to thank you gentlemen, we are somewhat newbies in the hummingbird feeding world. They stopped coming a couple weeks ago. I showed her this thread and within hours of the advice here, we had hummingbirds back.

I bring a pair of Ringneck's to the BW for fall trips, would love to add a couple Black Duck dekes to the 2 duck spread.
