On Saturday, April 9, the SNR Black Sox traveled to Washburn, N.D. to take on the Surrey Mustangs and the Washburn/Wilton/Center-Stanton Cardinals in the Washburn Triangular. Up first for SNR were the Mustangs of Surrey, N.D., and the Black Sox didn’t waste time establishing a small lead. In the top of the first, SNR pounced on Mustangs’ starting pitcher Kekoa Munos, who struggled in his 2.1 innings of work. SNR took advantage and scored two runs in the first, but weren’t able to add on in th...

The sharp shooters of Eddy County 4-H got a shot in the arm from the local Eagles Club this past week. After leader Mike Brazil made a presentation to the board of directors at their meeting on April 6, the club donated $5,000 to the local club, which is in its second year of operation. Brazil told the Transcript Wednesday that the funds will be used to cover operating expenses for the growing club. Brazil also plans to file for 501 (c) (3) designation, which is both expensive and...

There's chilly, and then there's spring fishing on the Missouri River chilly. No matter how I've fished it in the past couple of years, that stretch in March and April when the walleyes start to move on the flow provides its own unique challenges. The wind seems to always be blowing upstream, pulling with it the cold from the fast-flowing water below and depositing the bulk of it directly on my hands as I struggle to wrangle a squirming fathead minnow from a scoop, or fumble through the...
If you are watching the weather closely, it is looking like we may have a major setback to fishing on the Missouri River starting this Tuesday. Reports are early, but Bismarck seems to be in the storm's bullseye at the moment. Anywhere from 12 to 25 inches of snow is being tossed around. I've already started rearranging my guide schedule. We do need the moisture. I just wish it would have happened more out in Montana in the mountains that feed these systems with water. This will dirty up the...
Way back in 1952, in the back room of a small café, a few dedicated archers wanted to get an archery deer season established in North Dakota. The first goal that these want-to-be-bowhunters needed to accomplish was to establish a coalition which could represent their interests at the state legislative assembly. Through this meeting, a group of interested archers and other sportsmen were organized. This new group was to be called the North Dakota Bowhunters Association (NDBA) and quickly prepared...
