Steve, I'd think before I told a Chincoteaguer his boat was chicken breasted! haha

Bruce...not shoveling snow and a place where it doesnt get hot in the summer is going to be a tuff place to find. If you do good luck getting a room! I live on the ESVA and was born and raised here. We get some snow, but the summers are hot. We hit the 90's twice this week already. Of...

Glad to hear it John. I had several spots of skin cancer taken off my shoulders and back on 12/23. Thought I was just going in to have them looked at until the doc pulled his numbing needle and knife out. At 33 its scared the Marlboros right out of my pocket.

Sprig is the same here. Bufflehead - dipper, butterball Widgeon - robber duck, baldpate, baldcrown Gadwall - grey ducks Scaup - blackheads red breasted merg - shell duck ruddy duck - dollar duck

I would say the pintail drake but finally killed one about two weeks ago after 23 years of hunting. I got a hen last year and sailed the drake never to be found. Now that a sprig is out of the way my list consists of the big divers. Cans, redheads, and scaup are birds Ive never taken. Ive...

Jon, looks like you had a good view of the causeway. That can be a good spot, but there havent been many brant around at all. I take it you were here for the duckwater get together? One of those guys pulled up to a ramp on the Chesapeake with a 25ft boat pushed by a 225hp. Dont know who he...

Al, I dont always reply but I always read and enjoy your stories. That first sink...I mean swim picture will make a good before and after photo in the years to come. Thanks for sharing.

As someone else said use the goose decoys and a flag. The key is to give them something to look at, but more importantly be where they want to be. As the tide falls they feed on oyster rocks and mud flats here. Make sure you hunt a place you can get out of at low tide. Scout the edges of...

Here on the coast if it werent for blacks with a little mallard in them we wouldnt have any blacks. Killing them off wouldnt be any sort of conservation tool. A couple years ago I had a great big pair of blacks mounted. Everyone thought I was nuts because we have "black" duck everywhere here...

Ive had Lowe and Tracker boats since I was 12 running around the bay and seaside marshes here on the shore. After a couple years all of them ended up just as much marine tex as they were metal. Nothing new when you take an aluminum boat, load it (if you add it all up probably over loaded) with...

If you dont have a rifled barrel dont bother with the sabots. I have a rifled choke tube in a 24" smooth bore 870 and shooting remington sluggers 2.75 or 3 inch Im comfortable out to 130 or so with iron sights.

Great looking work everyone. Here's one I painted up Friday night.

Yes, that would be the whats left of my huge white pine that fell on my nieghbors garage. That call kinda ruined happy hour that Friday afternoon.

This is my first try at a wood duck. Finally got some better pictures off the camera rather than the cell phone.

One of my neighbors on the creek has an osprey nesting pole by his dock. This year the geese beat the fish hawks to the punch. Funning seeing them nest on a platform 20ft in the air.

His kids didnt want to run it, tried to sell it to Va Beach but they didnt have a facility large enough to house the collection so it went up for auction. I knew Mr. Maddox as a family friend for a very long time. His stories will be with me always.

Awesome work Tom.

Hope you guys have a great time Tom. Seeing this makes me want to go ahead and plan another. Cant wait to see the pics.

If your biggest grip is seeing prayer at the end of a show, you have bigger problems. I dont watch it much personally but it is refreshing to put something on and not have to worry about what word my 3 yr old will pick up and say the next day. Even broadcast TV just cant help but add in 4...

Very cool Pat. Its always neat to see the small things that made up the history of our sport. We have some old reciepts from the market gunning days from birds that were sold. Not sure if dad still has them but I'll see if I can dig them up.
