Another fun tidbit, pictures of me gunning from this boat were published in Ducks Unlimited Magazine in an article by fellow duckboats.net member Larry Metzger.

Definitely a very sentimental rig for me, hence keeping it for so long but I am fully entrenched in the church of roy these days.

I've been very happy with my LEM.

Brian LaFay is a very reputable guide here in NJ, runs Reedy Creek Outfitters FYI.

Those river keels are a secret weapon when hunting in areas with moderate current. Adds a lot of motion to the spread without batteries.

You're not going to find plans for a high box, they're a backyard built homemade rig. The general idea of them can be replicated, lower profile boat with flapper boards. There's a lot of mystique around the high boxes primarily because of lack of availability and a certain someone's social...

Looks to be similar timeline too, this one was banded in late February. I must have intercepted it on the way to its more southern wintering grounds.

This is a really good comment on the state of social media these days. I very often trickle pictures out on my social media accounts just because there's so many eyes on everything it's the only way to try to manage pressure. A newfound wrinkle to this is when it comes to our offshore fishing...

Very interesting to see how other parts of the country do it. Higdon does have a good production team behind their videos which I can appreciate. As for the mayhem we don't have anything near that level here on the East Coast, but I still find myself sleeping in more and more and avoiding the...

Banded first week of January, 2015 near Atlantic City, NJ so a wintering grounds band. My last banded black was a 12 year old bird from Ontario
