    Fishing Guide and Location for Bozeman in September

    Ennis is about an hour away and is full of fly shops and guides for the Madison. I would recommend booking with Madison River Fishing Company. If you must go out of Bozeman, I don't have any actual recommendations.

    Thinking about an Alaknak 12x20 for family camping. Anyone have any input?

    I have had a 12X12 for 16 years. I love the tent and it works great. I have looked at the 12X20 a couple times but normally hunt alone now so no need for that big. I know a queen air mattress sounds like what you want, but I would recommend individual cots instead. Every time someone moves...

    Which week for Idaho solo Archery elk 2022

    I hunt the same zone and the bugling has been different each year for the last 6 that I have hunted it. Some years opening night has elk screaming all around. Some years I don't hear a peep until the last week. I think the amount of rain, fires (I think this is pretty big as it changes...

    Snyder core - heavier broadhead vs heavier insert

    Jg48, I would be really curious to hear the final outcome here. I also have a long DL of 33" and I have had a terrible time with arrow spine if I put anything extra up front beyond a 125 grain BH and regular insert. Are you putting any weight on the back of the arrow?

    Enclosed trailer, Does nose shape really affect fuel mileage?

    I would not think so as you have your truck bucking the wind first, but I have no real world experience. My 16 footer has a slight V which I like as it gives a bit more storage space and the box is actually 16. A lot of Vs are total length so a 14 V might only have a 12.5 box.

    Help Me Pick a Big Guy Bag

    I am 6’4” and 245. About your size. I have a BA park series. Deer park I think in a down bag. I also use EE quilts. Extra wide long. Issue with the quilts is when its really cold and you want the bag over your head. This year I picked up a couple of Kifaru slick bags. Plenty roomy in the long...

    Cabelas Alaknak tent question

    My Alaknak is about 15 years old. The old ones are all the same color. No different color on the window covers. That is the only difference I can see from the photos online.

    Idaho Trails Map

    If you are asking because of the Motorized restrictions. When in doubt, walk. Or a quick call to F&G could tell you if they consider a "jeep trail" a road for motorized travel.

    Vacation-Yellowstone:UPDATE

    If you are planning to go to Bozeman, make the loop and drive by Quake Lake and Hebgen Lake. Stopping at the Quake lake visitor center is worth the time.
