    Sportspal canoe

    MIne's a 1979 but it's in great shape. No dents, and the paint still looks great. I got the deal of a lifetime IMO, the canoe included: 2 Gunnale seats, 2 foam seats, 3 paddles 2 of which are brand new, anchor, transom motor mount bracket, and 3 brand new still in bags life, vests all for...

    This Statisticians Take

    Anyone that thinks the biggest problem ducks face is being short stopped by flooded corn, is delusional. There's been flooded corn since there was duck hunting and that's not going to change. The real problem is that there are only 34 million birds left to cover 9.5 million square miles of North...

    The End of Duck/Goose Season . WHAT IS NEXT?

    I have never been a fisherman, but my plan is to get into it this year. I bought that Sportspal canoe for duck hunting, and didn't really get to use it this year due to a very early freeze out and weather that was just plain uncooperative. I have a steep learning curve ahead of me learning how...

    54th Annual Long Island Decoy & Sporting Collectables Show (Images)

    Oh man I wish I lived closer but the 500 mile drive isn't as easy as it once was. Those miniatures are really something esp. the sink box. Looks like a lot of fun.

    12 slot decoy bag for magnums and long lines

    She used to make a 12 slot bags that could hold Canada's. I know because I had 4 of those bags and used them for G&H Super Mag duck decoys which are 22" long. Why don't you give her a call and see if she can whip up a couple for you. She is after all "custom decoy bags by Diane". P.S. I kept my...

    Sportspal canoe

    I bought a Sportspal recently and even though it is highly stable, does anyone have an idea to make a couple of outriggers for it and how you might attach them? Thanks for any advice.

    Nebraska Upland Slam

    Very nice. I would love to have a shot at quail once in my life. There are zero quail in Pa., unfortunately.

    Who's out this morning?

    I had planned to goose hunt this morning, but with 50 mph wind gusts, I don't think I could set silhouette decoys that wouldn't flap around. We got a little snow this morning and the winds are supposed to die down a lot, so my plan is for tomorrow morning. Tomorrow is the last day our season is...

    Question For Retired Hunters

    After today' s hunt I question why I still do it as I'm really beat. Although I had great results, and even got a band (first one in 20 years), but the pick up and chasing after a wounded goose just about did me in. Last year I had major heart problems, diagnosed with CHF, and wound up with a...

    Damn What a Cold Snap

    31 this morning here in NW Pa., up by Erie. Not nearly as much snow as they predicted but enough to drive the geese into the cut corn. Field hunting for honkers tomorrow morning, picked up a new farm the other day, which has corn as far as you can see, and there is a pond in the middle. 300...
