    Charter Fishing Question - NDR

    Thanks. It is inland fishing but I don't know if in salt or fresh water. We are over in Hernando Beach and meeting the Captain not far from here. We saw lots of dead snook in this area. Someone said maybe redfish, speckled trout and something else i can't recall. Doesnt matter to me if we...

    Charter Fishing Question - NDR

    In a couple of weeks we have chartered an inland half day fishing trip in Florida. Price is $600 and includes everything. I have not done this before and am not in charge of this time either. Is tipping standard? How much typically? What kind of fish can we expect to be catching. Charter...

    Primitive Weapon Duck Hunting

    Had a budy shoot a pheasant out of the air with a .22LR. We were young and dumb at the time. Didn't know the legality of such a feat. None of us could believe it.

    Surface Drive vs Mud Motor

    I don't know if this has any bearing so take this as is. I have a jetski and a Yamaha jet boat. Both jet drives and they are very particular to the depth of the water in which they run. If the depth is less than say 3', I can suck up small rocks and sand which can, and have, become lodged in...

    New Duck Boat Purchase!

    Thanks. I am in the same "boat" as you. Looking to get rid of my 65lb Hoefgen as it is too heavy for me to handle. This boat I often use a kayak paddle on but also have a couple of mud motors that weigh less that 25lbs. Two I built, one is the old Rickshaw motor that was sold commercially...

    New Duck Boat Purchase!

    Perfect. I have been looking at these as well. Probably much more durable that a thin skinned Radisson or Sportspal canoe. Did you buy it new or used? Locally? I think I may have seen this on Facebook but not entirely sure. Think a small outboard or very small mud motor could be run on it...

    What new waders are you guys using?

    I purchased TideWe breathable zippered waders last year. I am not a guy who is easy on waders nor one who is hard on them. I probably wear them 50 times/year. They have been the best waders I have ever owned however I have never owned some of the pricier brands like Simms and others. For...

    Drones

    The government is claiming that the DJI software sends back information to the Chinese and we are therefore mapping the whole of the US for them. Surveillance sort of stuff I guess.

    Drones

    They already do.

    Drones

    Once again, they have to prove intent. Per my prior post, I used my drone to see if my boat hid well and to see what the ducks see flying overhead. That was my intent, and this is what I did. So according to the IL laws, I would be OK. I hate rules such as these where intent is involved...

    Hunting from fishing boat without a blind

    Watched a guy at our cabin hunt out of a pontoon boat. He pretended to be fishing, did nothing to conceal himself and would pull out his gun when ducks flew nearby. He was within a certain number of feet from the shore but he was still illegal in WI. He sure had a good time.

    Drones

    Never said they can't. All I said is that flying a drone over a WMA or other designated places is not illegal. Local government does not control the airspace. FAA controls it. There are many apps available that show where it is legal to fly and where it isn't. The DJI drones have built in...
