    1 MOA accuracy less common than you think ?

    When I lived in Soviet Occupied California, I hunted ground squirrels quite often. For this, a split hair accurate rifle and powerful scope was best. However now, over the past 40 years that I’ve been blessed to hunt hooved game almost as often as I want to, the below paragraph has become pretty...

    Any fly fishing recommendations for chasing King Salmon in Alaska?

    Halibut are the closet thing in the ocean to “no flavor whatsoever”, Aka: “tofu of the sea”.:ROFLMAO: But, tourists seem to be quite enamoured with halibut. So for the moment at least, our rockfish and cod are semi-safe.

    Any fly fishing recommendations for chasing King Salmon in Alaska?

    Greetings Ryan, I totally agree with you that the #1 seafood pirate, rapidly now destroying Alaska fish supplies, is ourself. The reason I earlier mentioned foreign vessels raiding our waters is because we don’t treat them harshly enough when indeed they do steal our fish. If we spanked them...
