Doing The Best We Can With What We Have

Doing The Best We Can With What We Have

Mission Statement

With the expanded use of social media today, it is easy to look at others' lives and wish you were them. There are a handful of fortunate individuals who get to hunt and fish for a living. There are others who's circumstances allow them to spend more time in the outdoors than most. The truth is.. the majority of us are average people. Average men and women who do the best we can with what we have. For us, every hunt is public land. Every hunt is DIY. We will most likely never own a Yeti, our Igloos will have to do. Never look down range through the lens of a Swarovski or wear anything adorned with the Sitka logo. We will never have a hunting magazine, never be the stars of our own hunting show, become prostaff members, or receive free gear. We have a limited number of days off each year, and limited funds to spend. This does not however crush our spirit or curb our enthusiasm for the great outdoors. We will take every opportunity we get to enjoy the Streams, Lakes and Mountains.

We do not criticize those more fortunate than us. Our hope is to appeal to hunters just like us. Those with limited time, limited assets, limited resources, marginal gear, yet, 100% passion.

WINTERIZE 2012

Every year at this time, a sad day arrives....the day we are forced to Winterize Doug. It was a little more painful this year because we just didn't get Doug out on the water as much as we would have liked to. This year however, we got the whole staff out to the winterizing party. We will make any excuse to get together.....


Before we know it, we will be at the Antelope Point Marina burning off all the fogging oil for all to see!

Until then, hopefully a few more coyotes and perhaps a little ice fishing trip or something. Hang in there Doug!

  2. Doug will appreciate the rest before you put him to work again. It's gotta be rough on him lugging all you guys all over the lake!

  3. Well, I'm glad you asked that... Usually cars,trucks and boats get girl names. But, when we went up north to buy the boat, we met it's owner, Doug. He was just a hell of a guy!! We were all a little envious of him and his set-up at his house that we decided to name the boat after him. We weren't exactly in love with the name at the time but it stuck. It was either that or College Girl Gina. (Doug's Daughter)
