  1. Warm Water Fishing Inland LP Lakes
    So I'm headed up next weekend for a fall camping trip with my in-laws. Same question applies - and additional question - how'd you do? What can I expect to find when we get there? Not looking for secret spots - just looking for some generalities.
  2. Sell - Buy - Trade Hunting and Fishing Goods
    Yup - pre-Thanksgiving Bump

    Elwood - I gave up. But I DID learn some valuable lessons.....at least as it happened in my case. First - if you use a 700 series stock you gotta grind out where the safety lever on the 721 hits. My dremel skills were novice at best. Second, and probably most important (at least in...

    WANTED: GRUMMAN SPORTBOAT. I know.....I know..... They're like unicorns. Impossible to see or find when you want one, but everywhere when you're not looking. Price should be consistent with condition - crappy paint jobs are OK, I've got the time to fix one up purdy by next year. PM...
  5. Saginaw Bay and its Tributaries
    Not worth it because the fishing isn't that good? Not worth it because there's nobody left to winterize it? Or just on general principal? :lol:
  6. Saginaw Bay and its Tributaries
    I'm thinking of pulling the Smokercraft (75 Merc Outboard) out of the garage and pulling it down to the Saginaw River for my one and only trip south for the year. Battery has been on a trickle for months and I walk by it every morning.....it's CALLING to me...... Only problem is that I really...
  7. Questions about MI Hunting/Fishing Law
    I just called. The answer is NO. You cannot. Unless I have a permit for being disabled.......which I do not have. Thanks!!!
  8. Questions about MI Hunting/Fishing Law
    100% Serious. You can pick up those school busses pretty cheap and the flat platform on top makes a great place to put up a blind - we've got lots of rolling hills around West Branch and I've got family that has farmland that I have access to and would rather just move a bus from field to...
  9. Questions about MI Hunting/Fishing Law
    I'm looking at buying a party bus/school bus that was converted for watching NASCAR and stuff like that. I'm wondering if I park it on private property, sleep in it, can I then climb up on the roof (Where there's an installed platform) and into some type of blind and HUNT from the roof of the...
  10. Basic Varmint Hunting Techniques
    Wink - May I ASSume that you are handloading your 110gr .308's? I ask only because I won a Howa 1500/.308 Stainless at the Ducks Unlimited banquet this summer. I'm a 7mmRemMag for the deer season and I dont really need the .308 unless I could repurpose it for varminting. Thoughts? (I...

    There's a 721 stock on eBay right now. It's a bit nice for my action (Read: Spendy) Description says it's a Herter's. Looks nice, but cant tell the LOP.
  12. Rifles
    I ended up with a VERY inexpensive ramline synthetic stock for the 700. My dremel skills leave a lot of room for improvement when I ground out the area for the safety. The barrel bulge took about.......3 seconds with a dremel and a grinding disk - I just put the action and barrel in the stock...
  13. Rifles
    I've finally pulled the trigger (pun intended) and snagged a Remi 700 ADL synthetic takeoff from a guy on eBay. I'll try and fit it and if it seems too much outside of my skillset, I'll take it to Williams in Auburn and have them fit it for me. I ordered an ADL trigger guard and the...

    Thanks Swampy.....If I decide to go with a new stock, I'll get one from Boyd's - their stock stocks are under a hundred bucks. I'll have to have it fit and then finish it, but it'll be cut right to fit the 721 so that advantage is there.
  15. Rifles
    Howdy all.... First time posting over on this end of the boards. Most of my shooting is done with scatter guns. I sold my deer rifle a couple years ago - FN Mauser 7mm Rem Mag - big mistake. I just didnt think I was going to be doing any long range shooting anymore - I'd kind of lost my...

    That canoe post was from 06-12-2003. It's only 10.5 years old. Maybe some moderators could go through and delete some of these old posts?
  17. Upland Game hunting, Dogs and dog training
    Right or wrong, we waited till this morning. We've lost 3 dogs and 2 cats in 4 years - all were very old - it was not any easier with this one than it was with any of the others. Sorry for the size of the photo. Here's a portrait that we had done of her in 2007 - (Portrait...
  18. Upland Game hunting, Dogs and dog training
    I remember starting this original post almost 12 years ago. Lucky Dog never turned into a hunter. She was a lover and a cuddler and was by far one of the best natured dogs I'd ever met. There wasn't anyone who she ever disliked and she was by far the most obedient mutt I've ever owned. 2...
  19. Saginaw Bay and its Tributaries
    I've driven by there every day for 10 years....never stopped (I fuel at Meijer).....never knew they had bait. Great tip thanks!!!!
  20. Saginaw Bay and its Tributaries
    Are you talking about the station on the corner of Gratiot and River in Shields/Thomas Township? (South west corner of the road)???????
