    North Idaho ice fishing.

    I moved to CDA a few years ago and have been enjoying all that the area has to offer. Any other north Idaho guys on here or anybody new to the area that would like to give ice fishing a try? I do most of my hunting and fishing by myself but wouldn't mind some company. Here's a bass from last season.

    Idaho panhandle white tails

    Sounds familiar. I spent days hunting in November only to come home to a 10 pt buck chasing a doe in my front yard. Here is the guy I’m after this year.

    California X10 Archery Hunt

    I no longer live in CA and i never filled a X10 tag, but I did hunt it once. After a few days of hunting the monache meadows area we started to hike into the wilderness area on the east side of the monache meadows. This will lead you to the PCT and a bridge that will cross over the river. If I...

    Idaho panhandle white tails

    I live in Coeur d'Alene and see more deer in town than in the woods! Im used to hunting areas where you can sit and glass. I like to see farther than 40 yards. I am new here but I focus on timberlands that are open to public, clear cuts, and last year I spent some time on the reservation. If you...

    ive found the cows, now what?

    Here’s another angle. At least I think it’s the same bull.

    ive found the cows, now what?

    The tag is only good for a cow for 5 days. I took some vacation during that time but I wont pass a shot at any legal elk. This is only my second year here and last year I was happy to get under 100 yards from a spike. Meat is my priority for elk this year.

    ive found the cows, now what?

    Thanks! Season won’t open until the 6th but I will be in the area for deer the week leading up to it so I should get to observe a little more.

    ive found the cows, now what?

    In my scouting this year I have found an area that has lots of food, water and sits on a bench on top of a north facing timbered slope. Lots of sign around the water and I see cows and calves every time ive been in the area. this is in an area that's a 1.5 mile hike in. I know that this area...

    Ice fishing North Idaho

    Yeah I found ice shanty and the guys in there pointed me to some fishable lakes. At some point I might head down to cascade for the big perch. For now I’ll stick close to home.

    Ice fishing North Idaho

    Well I was planning on trout/ crappie/ perch on the rods and dead baits under the tip ups for pike/ burbot/ tiger muskies. Ill fish for anything though. At some point id like to get my kids out on the ice for some panfish too. I saw some of those shelters and they look pretty cool but also...

    Ice fishing North Idaho

    They got me a sled, a couple of the small rod and reel combos, a tip up, an auger, ice scoop, and a bucket with a padded top. I spooled up my reels with some 6 lb test, got some tungsten jigs, some spoons and a few steel leaders. I'm ready to get on the hardwater and start drilling holes. I...

    Idaho muzzleloader bullet/powder/primer options

    Hey there, I just bought my first muzzleloader (CVA Optima v2 northwest) and am looking for some recommendations on bullets, powders and primers. In Idaho they have to be lead or lead alloy, no sabots, you have to use loose powder, and you have to use musket caps. I ordered the rifle on line and...

    Jack Daniels Squires?

    That’s awesome. Thank you for taking the time to ask I really appreciate it. If there’s something I can do to persuade him, please let me know.

    Jack Daniels Squires?

    this is a long shot. I once heard a guy talk about being a Jack Daniels squire. It was a club of people who are fans of Jack Daniels. The only deal was, you had to be nominated by a squire to become a squire. For as long as I can remember, dad has always had a bottle of jack in the cabinet and...
