    A. Armstrong 14 Broadbill

    I had one for about 20 years, sold it last year. it was a factory built glass boat. I ran it with both a 25 Evinrude 2 stoke and a 15 Evinrude 2 stoke. I didn't see a ton of difference in useable performance. With the 25 flat open it was scary and the motor weighs a lot more than the 15 so in...

    Anyone hunted geese in Chestertown, MD?

    we hunted there with Chesapeake Outfitters right before new years. We limited out on geese the first day in Kennedyville (one a day right now) and Mallards the next in Earlsville. Its a cool area and my little group tries to make the trip once a year for 2 or 3 days

    well I am waist deep in it now - Rehabbing Herters

    so I bought a dozen of the big Herters Foam decoys, I think they are 72's at a sportmans auction in Delaware. They had been burlapped but had been run hard and put away somewhere nasty. I thought they just needed paint, but after powerwashing off the mud and crud, they had been shot a bunch, the...

    Herters rehab ?'s and Behr Paint for Black Ducks?

    Home Depot is always an adventure. No burlap - that's not a huge deal I found it elsewhere. I bought 4 quarts of Behr Ultra, got home and noticed it was interior not exterior paint. Drove back and they were OK with returning it which was a concern, but as it was a hour later...., when they went...

    Herters rehab ?'s and Behr Paint for Black Ducks?

    I am sure this has been covered but I can't seem to find it. Does anybody have the Behr colors for black ducks? I just bought a dozen run really hard Herters big 72 burlapped Mallard decoys that need a rehab. I assume I can recover some really work or shot areas with mastic and burlap patches...

    Picked up some new old decoys and have questions

    thanks all, Beans is probably right. One of the heads isn't faired to the body (you can see a gap) not something a craftsman would do, more commercial

    Picked up some new old decoys and have questions

    Hi All, I scored some cork decoys this week two teal and three bufflle heads. I know the Buffies were carved by Captain Dick Henderson based on the RBH brand on the keel, I have six Pintails and a pair of Green Wing Teal he carved. I am stumped by the two Teal hens. Are they Blue wing or...

    I have a Carolina Built AA Broadbill. Mine came with a Mercury 9.8 which was way underpowered. I upgraded to a 2 stoke Evinrude 25 for a while then decided on a 2 stroke Evinrude 15 to save weight. I see no important difference between to 15 and the 25 for what I do, 2 guys a dog and maybe a...
