Have an opportunity to manage a business near Sidney. Have never been to the area. What can I expect? Anyone here have any first hand knowledge of the area? Any hunting or fishing available there?

I live and work in the area, good hunting opportunities, a few good fishing spots in the immediate area. What business are you going to manage?

We have a poster here that lived and taught school there for many years, Hope he see's this. I have hunted that area a few times, decent mule deer . Yellowstone River runs through it, not a fisherman, but heard it's OK, mostly private ranches, access may be a problem. It's in the middle of the oil boom area, town about doubled in size, along with traffic, crime and a housing shortage. FWIW unless it's change in the past few years, I'd not move there.

There is not a housing shortage here anymore, lots of people moved out with the drop in oil prices, but people are still pretty proud of what they have to rent and sell.

but people are still pretty proud of what they have to rent and sell. This a picture of a menu I took at a restaurant in Sidney a couple weeks ago. Wonder if they sell many $14 bowls of ramen noodles. I have been spending quite a bit of time there for work, definitely seems like things have slowed down compared to last year at this time. I'll be back next week.

Work out that direction some. I have some pretty good resources there. Friends that ranch just outside Sidney and in the surrounding areas. Another friend is county commissioner.
Let me know if you need anything. I will help however I can.
