Free iPhone/iPod Touch app: What Knot to do

Here's something nifty... a handy-dandy application to teach you how to tie all kinds of different knots, which I've noticed is something many folks have trouble with. And guess what? It's free! Ain't that nice?

This app is provided by Columbia Sportswear. They say it contains info on 70 knots, including step-by-step instructions and illustrations. I checked out some of 'em, and the instructions seem pretty easy to follow. Check it out if you've got an iPhone or iPod Touch, and want to learn how to tie some nifty and useful knots.

Rifle & Shotgun Scopes

Most hunters these days use scopes on their rifles, on their slug guns for deer hunting, and even on their shotguns for turkey hunting. When I started hunting, I used a peep sight - and I stuck with it for about twenty years. Eventually, I tried using a scope on my hunting rifle, and now I find it mighty hard to hunt with iron sights again.

This article will help you answer questions like these: Should you scope your rifle? Fixed-power or variable? How much is too much? Do you really need a huge adjustable objective lens? And more...

More Merlin The Fishing Dog
Here are some more memories of my dog Merlin and the fishing trips we took. She loved fishing as much as I do and never wanted to be left home. I did learn that it was not a good idea to take her when I went wading the river. Snakes were too attractive to her and she would jump into any pool where I hooked a bass meaning no more bites there. But she was great in the boat.
