It's been awhile since I've posted on this board, too long. Been lurking and enjoying the posts of so many hunts, and projects. I still see a lot of founding members active, so many years, Eric did a great job with this page- even before Facebook was popular. I didn't hunt this season, well I...

Good job boys! Hope you feel better Eric.

Dani, I pulled the trigger on buying the westone hearing protection a couple of years ago for shooting skeet and in the duck blind. I like them, and I can hold a conversation and hear ducks quacking with no problem. The last time I was in the blind, a few ten gauges where there with me and...

Almost 22,000 unread posts, I'll never catch up. Have a Happy Thanksgiving and safe hunting season ( for those that are still hunting ) Here's one of Chance- 5 years old- now 6 how time flies!

Steve, I don't know Mike, but I'm bad with names sometimes , so if I saw a face I might make the connection. I usually go to the decoy show, so maybe I'll catch up with you. I'll send you a Message off this thread later today. Great to see you participating on this page.

Steve, You are giving me a little inspiration to resurrect my scooter. It was my first duck boat I bought about 30 yrs ago. I like what you are doing to yours. You can see the boat below needs a now point and transom. When I was 16 I just wanted to hunt out of her so I didn't get...

I'm crying from laughing so hard... Thanks :0)

Hey Eric, I am sitting here counting my belt loops on my 501 jeans, seven loops! You almost got me ;0) I was shopping for the kids last week, and I told my FAVORITE wife that I needed jeans. Well after becoming overwhelmed with the varieties of jeans I finally found what I was...

Several years ago I had posted on this forum that I didn't believe in the NRA and that "they" are coming for my guns. I asked "who are they?" I got beat hard by that comment back then but I stood by my convictions, now i have to eat crow. I joined the NRA as a life member, and the New...

Well folks I was spare this time, not without damage but I'm blessed with my health, family, food and shelter. I know a lot of those in the area weren't as fortunate. Finally got lights, Internet and cable, I had know idea what has been happening with the recovery and extent of damage...

Rich, I really don't know how they steer the boat, I'm guessing shifting the individuals weight from left to right would be an option. One day the bay may freeze over again and I may get to see one of these antiques in operation. The Maritime Museum in Oakdale have a few on display...

Al, Thats not my scooter but I have one without the sail, which I tow out. Im not the brave soul who would sail that vessel across the bay. I have one but I tow it out, and usually the sun is up, no need for the flood light. I use too get up at 3 am and head out into the black...

I'm interested, but this is my favorite wife. I'd have to complete a 2 page honey do list before she would consider a second dog.... But I'm working on the list.

John, I here ya. Not ducky enough, I haven't even tried to get out, but have been havering fun with my son and dog going for pheasants. We had maybe 1 nice ducky day so far, when I saw frost on the truck and ice out in front.... But had work to do. I'll go out after new years...

What a nice litter, wish you lived closer. Against my wife's wishes , I'm looking for another chessie. Chance needs a friend. My kids waant another, but my wife is thinking I'm nuts.... 2 100# dogs in the living room.... Every time Chance passes gas, my wife looks at me and says...

Well guys I think I figure out how to resize the picture from a Mac. Thanks for the help. As I mentioned earlier, my son and I have been trying our luck on pheasants at a NYSDEC land out here on Long Island where they release pheasants over a very large parcel of land. Noah, my oldest son...

Been awhile without posting, just lurking. No duck hunting so I have to live vicariously through all your hunting stories. My son has been keeping me busy chasing pheasants with our chessie, Chance. Hopefully if the duck gods let us, we will try for our first duck hunt this weekend. I...

Tod, They are great reliable trucks, however sales and service are below par. I won't go back to Toyota dealerships for any repairs. I ended up doing the maintenance myself. When I bought my tundra in 2006, the ford f150 was my second choice. The sale guy knew trucks and tried his hard...

Hey Eric, Jack here, out on Long Island. Still visit once in a blue moon. Took on a new project this year, we are putting together a 12x20 foot floating blind. My oldest turned 12 and is excited to go duck hunting this year. Regardless if the birds come to town, I expect it'll be one of my...

Seeing and reading the stories posted through this thread hits home and brings back memories of why and how I started hunting. Thanks. I use to hunt with an old timer who had so much energy and enthusiasm about hunting ducks. George was about 70 when I first met him, and we gunned a...
