I am coming up for a long weekend over labor day and was looking for a place to take my son and shoot some clays around the Battle lake, Henning, Ottertail area. Anyone know where we can go? I have my own thrower and clays. Thanks for the replys.

This does not directly answer your question, but there is a sporting clays place just outside Dalton. They have a full course and the smaller set-up too. It will cost a few bucks, but you don't have to worry about the clay bird residue cluttering somebodys pasture or slough.

Then too, your son might pick up a few pointers at the place and the birds will fly way better than from a hand trap.

Just a thought.

Hey Jig Guy,

There is a shooting range just south of Perham and just east of Hwy 78. They have a clay pigeon range there and last I saw had a thrower. Bring your own pigeons and clean up after yourself and you should have a good time.

There is also another range around Henning, but I don't know where exactly.

the Henning rifle range also has a place for clays. South of Henning on the tar past the airport couple miles, turn east, there is a sign. Its out in the middle of no where.

      That's a good first step. But are you ready to buy this for the ranch and save the plant more? 🤭   EGO POWER+ 56V Battery 52" Zero Turn Lawn Mower. PRICE $8,899.00 534842_main.webp

      I got a nice Tom in season B and posted photos in the local thread (Moose's report).

      Did you have any luck?     I got a bird but didn’t really do much for pics worth showing.

      It depends on a lot of factors, I suppose.   I hung on to my last gas auger for a few years after getting into electric but I never used it so I finally sold it.  Haven’t missed it one bit.  You bet it was reliable though.  Still started on the second pull for the new owner.   After trying several options in the electric world, I’m currently settled on a Strikemaster 40V with Liteflight bits.  With 2 fully charged batteries, I fish all day in Canada, cutting 10 inch holes.     What I’ll agree with is, if you search by drilling and flasher sonar, you will probably be more comfortable with the run time of a gas auger.  When you start incorporating GPS mapping, forward facing sonar, and saved waypoints, you don’t need to Swiss cheese every spot you fish.  I can still run through both batteries when the fishing isn’t great but I never feel like I have to count my holes.  It’s more like: Did I need the second battery before the middle part of our fishing hours?  If I still can’t catch fish after running out 2 batteries, it doesn’t matter cuz the fish just ain’t biting.   That’s fishing on the dark side! 😉

      Yep, that's where I was🤪. Best fish were way up in the shallow boulders...   And.....if the 3 or 4 people that read this want to fish it.... go right ahead😁😏  My bass spots are no secret....trophy panfish spots, that's another story🤪
