I am resisting turning on the heat, its 63 inside the house, 57 outside at 11am.

1999-2000 was the best year, hands down, no questions asked, I had in my 22 years duck hunting Coastal Alabama. Numbers and variety of ducks was amazing that year. A strong cold front every 4-6 days. New birds coming in every week. Limits were the norm. First time I ever saw a duck...

I dont have much to offer other than encouragement! Please post lots of photos along the way, and don't be afraid to ask the brain trust here for specific advice, lots of boat building and restoring expertise here on the DHBP!

Don, when you create a reply, there is an "attach files" button right under the box you type text. Hit that button and you can add photos. Even if you are using your phone. Otherwise, send them to me and I will post them for you!

I feel your pain, haven't hunted since I moved down to Tampa in 2019.

39 degrees in Tampa this morning. Luckily iguanas are not this far north or they would be dropping out of trees. Tampa winter is here.

I saw a pile of bluebills on Tampa Bay on the way home. I am tempted to get my license this year and hunt when the limit goes from 1 to 2. We'll see.

Goose stew sounds good. Not sure about the Busch Lite though, I'd think a nice porter or stout would be more appropriate!

Finally saw a few flocks of bluebills on Tampa Bay on my way into work yesterday morning. It was 42 this morning. Tampa winter is here. 🥶

Cool! What’s the cod looking fish?

48 in Tampa this morning. Rest of the Gulf and east coast is colder with north wind Sure wish I as was back in duck hunting territory. Who’s hunting? Pleases share pics so I can get my fix. :)

That’s quite a tender you have there, how many dozen decoys can she carry?? :) Would love to see some hunting and fishing photos!

I think he might have a little pintail in the genes.

Happy Thanksgiving to the DHBP family!! I am grateful for all the friends I have made here over the years. Even though most of us have never met in person, the camaraderie here makes it feel like family. Thank you! Pecan pie is done, turkey just came out of the brine. I found a 7# one at...

Very nice write-up, thank for sharing! One, is your house a house to grow old in? We have asked ourselves this question and the resounding answer is no, for many reasons. Including being in Evacuation Zone A and an A/E 11 flood zone. Additionally, the house is a mix of old, new and newer...

I have yet to see a bluebill on Tampa Bay or the local stormwater retention ponds. Latest since I moved here in spring 2019.

My brother who lives just north of Scranton got over 12”. Sister in the Poconos got 20”!

Lots of guys did give up. I never did and adapted. Still had good and great seasons.
