Died suddenly... Dr's are baffled. Seems to be happening a lot these days.

One of the things that happened to me years back, is that we had run across the shipping channel to one of the islands when it was passable. Over the course of the hunt the weather turned, We were totally stuck over there. I was in a 16 ft alumaweld sled with a jet pump on it. No...

Early in the season you are likely to get fog down there. It can be really bad. and unless you know the area very well, I wouldn't recommend running it until things clear up after dawn. It may be different this season. I am near medford now, so our weather is likely drier here than up...

That entire area down there is duck Mecca. There is so much tidal swing, and variations in weather and river conditions, Your boat should be good for most days out there. I used to take a run from near Puget Is area way down past brownsmead along the oregon side, to scope out the conditions...

Cockers are good dogs, I used to hunt with a guy out of Longview who had a springer. great smaller dog for birds. "Otis." Otis was a springer, I believe, and he had a tail that beat furiously like he had a little outboard motor so that when the tide rolled in. he'd able to motor around...

Hey Vince, sweet set up and very pretty co pilot. I spent years down between Ilwaco and up to longview (and their equals on the Oregon side) you live in the West coast equivalent to Chesapeake bay as far as waterfowl is concerned, and that boat should be a pretty good way to get around and...

What a hunt! Goose is my favorite game bird to eat by about 100 miles.

I put together a duck call tutorial... most you guys are pretty salty callers... Maybe fwd it to a new hunter. Save them from embarrassment.

If the boat is not on plane, the apparatus is likely to not do much at all. if it is on plane, then you should notice some differences in its handling and the speed at which it gets on plane. Under these critical speeds, there is not much performance to enhance with it.

After a few years of Being without, I am once again considering obtaining a bird dog. Probably a retriever. I thought I'd check to see if you guys (and girl) know of any that are newcomers needing a place to land, or even a rescue that might want to give it a go. Please let me know...

Pepperoni pile. I like it and the dogs never turned it down as a treat.

Gentlemen, upon further review, it looks to be this

Greg, The bird in the picture was really enjoying it. I was able to get close up to it without it flying away. It refused to leave that weeping spot. I tasted it too, but it just tasted like water to me.

After feeding, we took the 10 ft T posts and cut them shorter so we could pound them into the ground, attach insulators, and run a braided line that is conductive for electric fencing. Sparks flew all over the place. It smelled like 4th of July sparklers. We couldn’t do this back in the...

A blurb from my substack... Thought it might be interesting to some of you drovers. ............................. I was able to escape the oppressive heat back in SE Asia and return to the Pacific NW. When I talk with Anya, she is always wiping sweat off with a bandanna. It is the...

Nice bunch of Fish there Dave. I've never caught a walleye, and I hear they are great table fare... Are they pretty oily? I wonder how they'd hold a smoke?

Oh boy, You guys are going to have an adventure. She looks like she landed in a good spot.

That was a great interview/ podcast. In a few generations, people will look back at this and be in awe of how things transpired. In fact, even now, it is an amazing thing about how this place came to be. I remember long back when I mentioned I was carving up something, I got plans...

Great to get out in the woods around dawn. That's where it's at.
