Hi Brad, I received and email from Kathy Fleming today. If you private message me your email address, I will copy you on the correspondence. It looks as if she is trying to recover the data. Rod V

Brad, Thank you so much for doing this. It certainly wasn't necessary, but much appreciated. If I hear anything I will let you know. I am looking forward to participating in the program for the next two years. Rod V.

You are truly blessed Todd. What a great trip except for the bugs. RVZ

Dave, I agree with your assessment of the RL post. He stole my sunshine this morning from northern Indiana. RVZ

I'm in for another 2 years, and will be glad to participate again. Each year I keep track on paper of the species of ducks I shoot with the dates so I can track the peak migration in our area. It's not unusual to put 4 to 5 different species in the bag on one hunt.

I thought maybe a PETA person at the Post Office.

Brad, That is a generous offer. This is the third time I have participated in their survey over the years. I used the envelopes they sent me, which arrived late, two weeks into the season. They only sent 15, so I immediately requested another 50. My ID number is 23519033 My email address is...

I received the wing survey results from the Fish and Wildlife service a few days ago and am extremely disappointed with the survey results. I turned in 40 to 50 duck wings and about 20 goose tail feathers and wing tips. They show my harvest results as one Canada Goose shot in Elkhart County on...

Thank you Dave, I have a rig of E Allen Broadbill and Buffies. They have taken a beating over the years. I am now looking for a realistic head for the Herters 72 bodies. I will look into your suggestion. RVZ

Steve, Yes they are Broadbill. I just reworked 7 drake Goldeneye per your tutorial. I too switched to the Home Depot paint samples. Really appreciate all the information you bring to this site. RVZ

Bill, Thanks for the Autumn Wings suggestion. I like the idea of wooden heads as well. They have a very nice website. RVZ

Thanks Roy, I looked at their website but couldn't find standard size Broadbill heads. What they offer looks pretty durable. RVZ

I have about 5 dozen Herters model 72's that need replacement heads, Would like to replace the plastic ones with durable urethane foam heads. Any recommendations for a supplier? Thanks in advance. RVZ

My old 15 hp weighed 85 lbs, the new Yamaha non electric start weighs 125. The new engine seems to cantilever off the back more than the old one. RVZ

Scott, It is rated for a 15 hp. I ran a 15 Johnson on my 93 until last season. If you hunt alone with a dog and gear you will be fine. Anything more and it will be under powered. I just put a new 25 hp Yamaha on mine. Plenty of motor. My only concern is the TDB motor mount integrity. Ratings are...

Paul, I bought a kit from Lou in 1988. I assembled it myself, and I believe a kit price was right at $1,000.00 including the oar. RVZ

I own a scull from Lou. I purchased it in 1988. RVZ

Leonard, Lou Tisch who is a member of this site has done plenty of hunting in Texas. I know he was a scull boat hunter but don't know if he ever sculled the state of Texas. Maybe he will see your post. Or send him a private message. He would help any way he can. RVZ

You shouldn't need a tool kit if you run a Yamaha.[;)] RVZ

Dani, I have no clue who made them, but they are great pieces of waterfowl history. I am working on a rig of cork mallards and blacks to replace the dozen plastics my wife bought me for my birthday in 1979. By "working on" i mean purchasing a few at a time. Yours may be heavy, put them on...
