You're in John Bourbon's stomping grounds. We should coordinate next year. I usually go up the week after Thanksgiving, so not to conflict with my later season in VA.

Brian, what part of Champlain do you hunt?

Any suggestions for an inexpensive easy blowing call for the boys?

Dave, I have decoy boards on my BBSB and vertical grass on them to add to my concealment. I use slotted bags for my decoys and can fit 2 6 slots on the bow, and 2 9 slots stacked in the cockpit with me while I run the rig standing. If I get crazy for decoys, I have also placed 2 12 slots on...

Done, thanks again!

Awesome! Thank you for all the hard work. Do you need $ at this time? Don't be shy.....

Dave, I have a mold and can make what you need..... average 14oz each typically.

I put the jugs in a crockpot filled with water, on low and it pumps much easier. If it has crystalized, it will go back into solution.

I wear a large, but found it a little too snug, so I ordered the XL, well that is too big! Bought a hat stretcher and now my Large fits fine. I may have used this XL for a single hunt. I did wax it when I got it as I did them both at the same time. I see on Filson's site they are on Back...

I picked up half a dozen unfinished H&H divers. My hunting partner in VT has some finished decoys he acquired some yrs ago when WingSet closed up. These are ground up yellow cork with a binder, pressed into a mold it appears. My thought is to seal them with some oil duckboat paint I have...

Anthony, thanks for posting up all the pictures. I made it home last evening before dark. Navigating the island with a trailer is not for the faint of heart! Bumper to bumper, on broken concrete roads.... crazy NY drivers! But the only casualty was a trailer light. It was a beautiful day...

Rich, I will generally hunt this by myself. In a few years, I hope to have a grandchild along, but the boys are just now 2yrs old and the girls are 6 months, and due next month! I made a seat that puts me 12" off the floor so I will hunt off the starboard slightly angled. Back in the front...

This coming weekend, I will take my SBDB north to the SSWA Fall boat show. This past weekend I greased the hubs, and checked the air pressure on the trailer. Put some more grass on the boat and loaded up some gear to bring to the show. I have a few parts from Brian Garman's hull to pass...

There is a Maxi in SE VA on FB Marketplace.... I have been tempted, as I don't have one but already struggle to store the 5 I have.

Best tool for cleaning up/removing the mess is a multi-tool. Can run the blade along the floor and minimize a lot of sanding/grinding. Does the hull have keelsons or a keel? I would want something running fore to aft either under the hull or inside. Then add some cross ribs. As others...

Eric, only you know the level of frustration, and effort required to maintain this site. Know that those of us that have been longtime participants appreciate it. I am willing to financially support what is needed to keep the forum alive, and would follow to a new site/provider. Is there a...

This boat is taking a lot of grass! I have cut 3 times now, and am close to done. I found a great tool that should make field touch up easy and fast, and safer than my hand scythe when in waders!

I just went through this myself a few weeks back. Moving from boat to boat is always challenging. I try to outfit each completely, but sometimes $$ prevents that. So here are the few things that I move from boat to boat. 1. fire extinguisher 2. anchors 3. spotlight 4. throwable PFD The...
