Have an acquaintance in Macomb, MI looking for some help with a young lab. Was curious if there are any retriever training groups in that area of Michigan. Thanks, Nate

Hey there, I'm looking for an American Oystercatcher pattern for carving/reference. Was curious if anyone could point me to a source. Thanks, Nate

I have an old broadbill that needs a rehab. The boat could be good again under the right care. Ideally, someone with a barn or garage could store the boat and work on it. The photo attached shows glass delamination on the top deck, but the marine plywood is still OK in places. Trailer has new...

My son is selling his Bolger-designed Texas dory skiff. The boat was built by a craftsman in Rockport, MA using marine plywood, epoxy resin, and marine paint. Paint needs touch up in a few places. Boat has front and aft flotation, front storage, mahogany floor boards that can be removed, built...

18 ft. Starcraft with 75 Mariner oil injected 2 stroke outboard with trailer, plus electronics. This boat is great, and I've done some work on it over the last two years to make it a very nice boat. Trailer has been rewired with submersible LED lights and new tires. Entire boat was repainted...

OK, so for years I have used para cord for decoy line. The trouble is, the stuff doesn't really sink and can be plainly seen from above. What do you folks use for decoy line, and do you have any recommendations for a good, sturdy sinking line? Thanks, Nate

Selling a Johnny House quail recall pen I made several years ago. This is a well-built quail pen that will hold 20+ birds. I'm moving it along as I'm looking to build something a built smaller and more transportable. It comes with the food and watering system. Asking $300. I'm located in...

Hi gang, Earlier this summer, I won a nice Trijicon Accupower scope. I'm not really a rifle shooter/hunter, but I have started to think about what kind and caliber rifle I want to put under this scope. If you had to choose one caliber to hunt a variety of big game, what would you select and...

I have two small outboards I am looking to move along. One is a long shaft Johnson Sail Master 4 HP. Starts, runs, and shifts well. Probably could use a tune-up. Asking $175. I also have a Chrysler 4.4 HP short shaft. This engine was just tuned up and runs well. Also asking $175. I've been...

I'm headed to the Nag's Head area of the Outer Banks in a few weeks. I haven't been there in about 20 years. Looking forward to a nice little break from everything. We're looking at doing a bunch of day trips from the house. I'd love to find a few duck/decoy related places to visit. Not sure...

I have a BSA bore sight with 15 arbors .177 up to .50 cal. In good shape, used lightly. These sell new for $50-$60. I'm looking to get $30 plus cost of shipping. You can find a description of the set here: http://www.midwayusa.com/product/766064/bsa-bore-sight-with-15-fixed-arbors Email...

Folks, I'm looking at getting a couple of float coats for mid- and late season sea ducking next year. The Mustang brand seems to be the most popular, but I can't seem to find a bomber style coat in camo. Are there any other brands out there that you've seen or tried that you like? Safety is the...

Hey folks, You may remember Hank Shaw from a few years back. The duckboats.net gang was really instrumental in helping Hank's blog honestfood.net get some press/publicity. Hank has written two great books on wild foraging and wild game cookery. His last book, Duck, Duck, Goose is really...

Any Franchi owners out there? I bought a Franchi 48 AL 20 gauge this past spring and put a case of ammo through it over the summer. Love the gun for clays and upland hunting. While up in Maine the past two days chasing timberdoodles, I noticed that I cannot unload shells from the magazine tube...

Some photos from the ODCCA show. I did not record names or ribbon placements. I just took photos. Enjoy! If you are on Facebook, I posted a bunch more photos to the DecoyNutz group. Nate

Forgot I had these. One dozen brand new (although a little dirty) Herters Model 72 decoy blanks. I was going to burlap these and use them for sea ducks, but starting to carve a new cork and pine rig. $100 + shipping, or you can swing by the house and pick them up. Nate

I won these LL Bean dekes at a DU event last year. Honestly, I have enough cork birds that I just don't use and these are taking up space. These are brand new, never rigged and never been in the water. Asking $225 for the lot and that includes the decoy bag. If interested, I could throw in a...

Finding old, forgotten photos is fun. I forgot that I set up a Photobucket account some years ago. Accessed it today to find some old photos I'd taken and this photo of Lee Harker was the first one to pop up. I never met Lee, but in my mind....this is just how I remember him. I miss the old guy.

Hi folks, Putting in a plug for the Joppa Flats DU Banquet, which will be held Friday, February 7, 2014 at the Elks Hall in Newburyport, MA. We'll have some great prizes and trips again this year, and we'll also have another MoMarsh boat (http://www.momarsh.com/) in the Sponsor Raffle. Plus...

I bought some Goldens paint not too long ago, but it was not the matte fluid kind. When it dries, it has a bit of a sheen. Is there a matte medium or additive that I can use to deaden the paint? Thanks, Nate Grace
