    Season Dates stink

    Anthony I'm also in New York. So far the big water season is terrible, swamp hunters season has been better.

    Glad I didn't go out Wednesday

    Dani The report is she drove the car in the river. The car is still in the river, but it has moved closer to the edge of Niagara Falls. They brought in the coast guard from Detroit, only personnel close enough and qualified for that kind of mission. Report said the piloting was all manual no...

    Glad I didn't go out Wednesday

    Crazy day on the river, but it usually gets the ducks moving A Car drove in the river by the falls. A mile or 2 from where I like to go. Coast guard did a recovery. It is impressive of how skilled the coast guard people are. Here's a link to a video https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KXrSnEu7tIM

    Fight It, Or Not? (Any Cops Here Feel Free To Weigh In. My feelings Won't Be Hurt If You Say I Deserve It)

    Eric It's apparent the officer doesn't understand duck hunters and duck hunting. He was definitely out of line from keeping you from working on your blind and being ready for the season. Road closed?? That's why we have 4wd trucks, boats and canoes. Whatever it takes to get to the blind!!!

    Towing Capacity?

    Belle's first Montana season - 2019

    Dani Wonderful pictorial and essay. It may have been hard to post, but the memories you made will always bring a smile to you. I would love to hopefully someday go on a hunt like this with the new dog. The snakes my freak me out. I'd worry the dog may get bite or me. Other than that it looks...
