    Free epoxy adhesive!

    Todd, have you looked at the specifications for this foam? As Mark mentioned, Penske Composites no longer exists. 3A Composites manufactures products comparable (identical?) to Penske Board as Airex PXc and PXw. Go to http://www.corematerials.3acomposites.com/airex-foams.html to see...

    layout boat question

    I'll share it after I discuss it with Sarge. A tiller extension is mandatory. Stowage is the primary consideration.

    layout boat question

    Sarge, I've given this considerable thought. I believe an Estuary will be perfect for you with some minor customization. I'll echo Scott F's comments. Dave should be able to build the sailboat dodger so that it both hides the hunter and provides a solid hand hold for a seated operator...

    I've read this story several times and enjoy it more each time. Fantastic writing! The bond that Wrey and Duke had -- that's the ultimate waterfowling experience.

    Wonderful shots, Sarge! I'm adding a few of those to my screen saver.

    CBR question

    How old is she? Does she do it on land? When was she introduced to water? This may not be relevant, but IMO, March is a little early to be doing water work with a young dog in the NE. CBR's can be compulsive about behavior. I'd back up and stick to land work for a while before...

    Winchester Supreme

    I had much better luck with 1 1/8 oz #3 Xperts than 1 1/4 oz #3 Supremes. With the Xperts I had fewer cripples and better pellet penetration (as witnessed when cleaning birds). I used one case of each before switching to other ammo. I also used one box of Supreme in #2 and didn't like it...

    Slick little rig. Does he plan on using it in FL?

    Duck food

    Rich, I'd call the regional private lands biologist and the state waterfowl biologist at the North Dakota Game and Fish Department: http://gf.nd.gov/about/staff/wildlife.html And, I'd also contact the ND private lands coordinator for the Partners for Fish & Wildlife program (US Fish...

    Privateer Boats?Opinions

    Of the Carolina "utility" boat builders, I think Jones Brothers are the best. Look for used models that have composite (no wood) construction. I fish on a '00 twenty footer and it's impressive. A used Parker is another good bet. They use lots of wood and poly- or ortho- resins in the...

    Gosh, Eric. So sorry for your loss.

    Filson waterfowl sweater

    I'm a fan of any wool product. I lust for the Filson sweater but am too cheap to buy it. I have two LL Bean Commando sweaters. They're cheap ($49!!!). They're warm. And, they're easy to wash -- just throw'em in the machine on the handwash cycle and then dry on a flat surface. I wash them...

    Chessie Owners

    I'm looking at a forthcoming litter sired by Sugar Tree's Moose Pond Gunner. I'd like some first-hand impressions from folks who currently own a Gunner pup. Specifically, I'm interested in temperament -- working ability isn't in question. I believe that at least two forum members own Gunner...

    A couple of questions

    It's always interesting to see how other people approach a problem. Good ideas from the above posters. I pick almost every puddle duck and ring neck I kill. I skin birds with pin feathers (probably not something you see in FL) and reserve breasting for birds that are terribly damaged by...

    mallard muncher ???

    Great shot, Sarge! I watched a "marsh hawk" take a black duck on the wing this year at MNWR. The percussion from impact was incredible! Do you see many raptors on the north shore?
