How about "Charles William"...... Just happens to be my name :D

Hopefully after Work I'll be able to knock down a few doves for my Lab to retrieve. Nothing kicks off hunting season like some dove breasts, with onion and Jalapeno wrapped in bacon on the grill! Actually work is my summer job and consists of scanning tickets at the Phillies AAA baseball...

This post is waaaaaay overdue! Just got my camera back to working condition so I can finally post a photo of the decoy I received in the spring swap. A magnificent Bluewing Teal from Jim Williams. Its the only Bluewing in my spread(except for the shelf bound plastics that will never see the...

Carving and sanding is all done! Just waiting on eyes from Van Dykes so I can finish it up. Will Post a pic on Sunday night/Monday morning. Cork Bluebill with basswood head, and Pine tail and bottom board. Learned a lot on this bird, going to finish up a mini rig of divers so I can try and...

I was just looking through old posts from around this time last year and wondering if it was going to happen again. I'd be in for a cork and wood decoy. Mid may sounds like a good time to exchange as well. .............................................................

I've always been a fan of your work, the quality of it showed how much you loved doing it. Those photos are absolutely gut wrenching. I truly hope things get back to as normal as possible as quickly as possible. ................................................

Very Cool! Mallards cross with just about anything. From the DU website.... "Waterfowl crossbreed more often than any other family of birds. Scientists have recorded more than 400 hybrid combinations among waterfowl species. Mallards crossbreed with nearly 50 other species, and wood ducks...

Boycott the Eastern Sports and Outdoors Expo on facebook is being updated regularly. Another website Mynortheastoutdoors.com is compiling lists of vendors that have dropped out as well. There is a push to put on a virtual expo. You'll be able to find all the boycotting companies in one...

Lots of big drop outs today, Ruger, Smith&Wesson, Thompson Center. Archery companies are dropping out. RMEF dropped out. Most celeb speakers have dropped out, and quite a few guides and lodges have dropped out. I'm pretty sure every waterfowl call company has dropped out. If the...

This was always a great show to attend. I've been going for about 10 years now. But I won't be going back if they don't change their tune. Thankfully lots of show sponsors are dropping out, and celebrity speakers are canceling appearances now. Keep spreading the word to fellow...

SHE is 8 years old. And you should never comment on a lady's age! No worries, I usually have a pink collar on her when we're not hunting. Because of her size she is often called he.

Just a few pics from some recent outings to ring in the new year. Ducks have been few and far between this year, but I always enjoy being out. My Lab on New Years Eve giving me the "I'm cold, tired and ready to go home" eyes. Only saw a handful of ducks and none came anywhere near me...

I always enjoy your stories and photos. Thanks for taking the time to write and post!

Thanks for all the kind words, and encouragement guys. I've gathered a lot of knowledge and inspiration from this message board over the last few years. From boat building ideas to decoys this site has helped me immensely!

My decoy's that is. This is the first year I'm hunting over my own decoy's, no plastic allowed. Saturday was a nice frosty morning, but I knew by how many stars I could see that it was going to bright and sunny in a hurry. I had a pair of ducks buzz low through the spread just after shooting...
