Wow, the article definitely says that, for both public and private land...but that is news to me. And I think that there are many, many people using cell cams all over this state who will say..."What???" While I personally agree that cell cams are electronic surveillance and therefore not...

Brassicas - my crib notes say I planted brassicas last year on 08-08-25 at: Gate = 0.1, gear = 2.1 and depth at 1/2". Soil was damp, almost too wet. Felt like that was too heavy. Stand was OK. Planted three other places on 08-15-25 at: Gate = 0.1, gear = 1.6 and depth at 1/2". Soil was...

I have used my G5 with a LS 40HP...but it is on the ragged edge. I bought a New Holland 60 HP and it handles it very well. While you could possibly get away with something in the 40HP range...I would recommend something bigger.

I need to verify the brand, but I have one that is a leaker, even when new, that I would never buy again. My other blinds are: 3 Banks blinds and 2 360 Pro XL's that are all very nice. I would buy the Banks or 360 Pro's again anytime.

Post some video of it in use. That looks cool!

FWIW, I saw a roadkill fox today and the tail looked very much like the one here. Not puffy.

When I saw these pics of devastation I was a little nervous to see what happened at my place. After being there today I am happy to say we received nothing like this. I am sorry for anyone that got wiped out like this. At least it is early enough in the season to replant with beans. Bummer...

Where I live near Iowa City...less than inch, although it came down heavy when it came. At my farm in Davis County...about twice that. And judging by security camera images...it came very hard at times too.

I am not a fox expert, but I think this is correct. I have seen a couple similar to this over the years, but I am not sure then if I saw the same fox more than once or the fox change seasonally.

When in the "open" they definitely are more prone to heavy winds tipping them over than other species. Good advice!!

Wow, thanks for sharing all. I am now wondering if the terrible admins that you got rid of ended up over here in IC. :) But for real...many public schools are totally wack right now...even here in Iowa. Egads. I am a product of Iowa public schools and feel like I received a great education...

Just a FWIW on the subject of public schools v. financially supporting private schools, etc, etc. I live in the Iowa City School District (ICCSD) and things could not be MORE out of whack than they are here right now. Literally millions of dollars that they cannot "find", the district has had...

Ha! :) Badger story incoming...Years and years ago I was fishing with my brother in a small creek. We were only 10 or 12 years old at the time. I was actually in the creek at the time while he was up on the bank above me as we moved upstream. Due to the height of the steep bank, I could only...

Otters...GRRRR!! While neat to see and cute to watch, they will seriously degrade the fishing in your pond(s)...and usually in a matter of days. If they just killed fish to eat them, maybe it wouldn't be so bad. But they kill and kill and kill and kill and eat a fraction of them. Short...

I would like to hear more about the stone mulch please. I have planted various apple and pear trees at my farm through the years and if there is ONE thing I have learned it is that don't even plant them if you aren't going to go nuclear on protecting them. Whether it is coons breaking branches...

This. ^^ I don't often get gun tags any longer, but when I did AND I had a specific buck in mind where his tendencies were known to us...the early muzzy was hard to beat. But...no cold front means no Mr. Big...most likely. I once skipped the first 5 days of that 9 day season and waited until...

I'll pop the popcorn...dis gunna be gud. :)

That is key ^^. Milo is easily grown and very drought resistant, but you can get wiped out by too many weeds early on. The ability to apply pre-emergent really helps to address that concern. I have been planting 3 or 4 small areas of milo now for a few years with the primary intention to...

Previously, I bought a lot of seed from Iowa-Missouri Hybrids in Keosauqua, but they folded up a couple of years ago. So, I have been buying most of my food plot seed from Frytown Trailers, about 3 or 4 miles south of Iowa City. Although not well represented on their website, they carry Real...

Condolences on the loss of your friend, truly. But someone needs to get some grief counseling set up for his taxidermist, pronto. That guy has got to be devastated.
