There's a reason for that, bears preferentially come up from behind..................................................

Should be alright, nothing on the can that says protect from freezing. I always keep my stale dated ones in my work truck yr round and let me tell you the damn stuff still burns when you get blowback. I'd contact the manufacturer if you're unsure.

I did have a sow and cub scare me spitless on Mill Ck last summer. Never saw her until she woofed at me, straightened out every hair I own, decided fishin' upstream was probably a better plan than the current one and went with that.

there's always exceptions but it's just that I find any firearm an extreme pain in the ass to carry while fishing. I have enough trustworthy friends who've spent far more time around bears than I have who have compete faith in a big can of pepperspray. Good enough for them, good enough for me. BTW, never said anything about camp guns where legal and high country huntin' with pepperspray is really kinda on the silly side.

I don't know Grinr I've never had too but after 1500 days or so of hangin' in their territory I have made their acquaintance a time or two.

What kinda cake Mister Christopher Sir??

I thought about pointin' that out but I knew all true redneck rambos wouldn't care.

Cool and I've watched shooters who can mark sub 1" groups all day long on the range couldn't hit a bull in the ass with a shovel when it comes to takin' a 150 yd shot at a booner buck or bull, myself included. I used to buy my reloadin' powder by the keg Sunshine and probably worn out more rifles than you own. Been there done that threw away the effin' t-shirt. That is very true but with any pistol except maybe that cannon Grinr purposin' ain't gonna break down much bone to stop or even slow down a pissed big bear. Plus with Grinr's Casulls you're gonna hafta deal with a pistol that pointed at the sky (BIG recoil) after every shot, best be waitin' till that bear gets inside of 15'-20' before shootin'. Ain't many around that got the stones to pull that one off while armed with a handgun and fillin' their shorts. I ain't.

Just don't fish around me, I'm gettin' tried of the bear/cougar paranoid. Last one I spooked 'bout beat himself black and blue with the barrel before he could get his firearm into position.

Yeah right and if you can't hit a target the size of an orange (brain shot) comin' at you at 45kph over rough ground make sure you save the last round and use it to blow your right-side eardrum outta your left ear just before the pissed off bear arrives because you're in for a world of hurt. Majority of people who pack a pistol for bear would have trouble hittin' anything abet accidentally in a pressure situation. Rifle ain't much better except a bear dies or is diein' while still 150 yds away. Be bear aware and pack bear spray is all that's needed. I've used bear spray on aggressive dogs, more than a few herd bulls intent on killing and one assertive little prick of a bear and each and every time it was like they ran into a wall that bit back.

Concernin' most "outdoor" trade shows I've seen in the last 20 yrs or so; used to hit'em every yr.. then every other yr.. lately increased to every 3 yrs but am seriously considerin' every 4 yrs. They all seem to fall into the same stuff different pile category yr after yr.

The local professional streetwalker probably could use them.....

Cry, almost makes me wanna ski again but I know my knees are gonna say naff off buddy......

Drama Queen

I wonder how many Castle protestors that summbitch can eat and how long it would take to get rid of the taste??

What? The bump or the slap?

SLAP!!

Cris got it, marble trout. Salmo trutta marmoratus

Ohhkay I'll shutup now

What kind of trout is this? And it ain't a hybrid, it's a subspecies.

If you like to take advice from a pair of weasels go ahead... rest of the board members are pretty good for givin' the straight goods in the advice department but that pair........ not so much. One of them lives in Douglasdale for crys sake Oh! BTW, welcome to the board, tis a dangerous path you have strayed upon

WTTW; watch out for that SJWorm and that BBT feller, they're a known pair of weasels and like to throw their weight around under the guise of forum "administration"

Nope, may head to cast a One, that's about it.

Oh and Sid too please

Give Mike Judd a hug for me..
