It's that time of year again I suppose for the "have the hares turned white yet?" post. With the late winter, warm weather, rain are the hares turning white anyway?
I recently had a '97 Bayou 300 4X4 4 stroke basically dropped in my lap. I am about to pull my hair out because of it(no wonder it was such a great deal). The previous owner said it started acting up so he parked it since he had other wheelers to use. It sat for about a year. He described the...
I'm in the Wasilla area and was wondering where would be a good location to find decent wild raspberry patches. Our neighbor and I are wanting to make some jam and aren't that familiar where to look for them. We had our own patch in our yard when we lived in Anchorage. Please PM me with...
So as to add another "legal" question post, P.U. caught vs. sport caught fish parts for bait. With the exception of a few limited areas(ie; Seward & PWS) it is against the law to use ANY part of a sport caught fish for bait(in Seward you can use pinks and PWS, pinks and chum but they do count...
Since the dipping season isn't far away, any info on what the run is going to look like? Are the fish early this year there too? Neighbor and I were planning to do a scouting trip this coming weekend. Will it be worth our time to dip the Kasiloff or should we wait until later for that and go...
So the Mrs. and I ended up doing both. We hit the Russian ferry at 9am on Saturday and by noon had 3 limits (mine,hers,proxy) on the stringer. She wasn't ready to head home so we drove over to Seward and went fishing off the dock in the harbor for flounder. Ended up with a few flounder and a...
With the passing of my FIL, my wife's family has told me that one of his last requests was that all of his hunting gear be given to me. This includes all his guns. I am curious as to how (if it's even necessary) do I go about registering them in my name? My MIL is willing to do any paperwork...
So this fall with all the rain our basement had some partial flooding. As a result of the flooding I had some miscellaneous ammo become slightly to moderately corroded. Enough so that I refuse to put it any of my guns. It is mostly shotgun shells (20ga. &12ga) with a few rounds of 30-06 & 30-30...
Just wondering if anyone has been out after hares and if they noticed the hares turning color yet? If you've been out, what part of the state, any luck? Also what is your opinion on the cycle level this year in your area?
For the purpose of this post, my meaning of "true Old Timers" is someone who has lived in this state for several decades, not just someone who has lived for here for a few years (like myself) :). My question is this: What are your experiences with the general location of moose during this time...
OK so I posted this in the Lost and Found forum but gonna try here too(if it's ok with the mods). I found a cell phone at the pullout just south of the Russian River Ferry last weekend. The phone is destroyed but the SD card is still ok. Lots of pics on it, some from fishing on a salt charter...
Thinking about making a trade on an item I own and was wondering if someone offered the right gun for trade is there a way,if I can get the serial # off the gun before a trade, that I can check to see that it isn't "hot"(stolen or something)? Is there a website I can go to to check? Or would I...
So I get home from work today and my son excitedly has something to tell me. I can barely even get in the door and he's acting like a 2 year old tugging at my arm. I walk in and there is an unfamiliar gun case sitting in the living room. I ask him what is that? He responds with " I didn't say...
What are your opnions on getting grouse and/or bunnies in the pass. Looking at somewhere between the bathrooms and the Hope highway, possibly further south but not realy wanting to go past the Sterling cutoff right now. Any and all opinions apreciated.
Thanks, Tom
I was hoping to get out and find some white bunnies before the snow hit the valleys. Been too busy at work to even check to see if they are white yet and now the way the weather is acting I might not get a day off before the snow hits! Anyone know if they are turned around the Eureka area...
I'm not at home so I don't have the regs right in front of me and the computer I'm using won't open up the F&G page with the regs. I just wanted to know the close date for moose in unit 14A.
Three blondes are sitting by the side of a river holding fishing poles with the lines in the water. A game warden comes up behind them, taps them on the shoulder and says, "Excuse me, ladies, I'd like to see your fishing licenses."
"We don't have any." replied the first blonde.
"Well, if...
Standing at the edge of the lake, a man saw a woman flailing about in the deep water. Unable to swim, the man screamed for help. A trout fisherman ran up. The man said, "My wife is drowning and I can't swim. Please save her. I'll give you a hundred dollars."
The fisherman dove into the water...
Question for those of you from the Fairbanks area. I have a childhood friend whoose father-in-law just passed away and they are trying to fullfill his wishes. One wish was to have some of his ashes spread around at Tommy's Elbow Room, at least that's what my friend thinks the bar was named. I...
