    Frozen to the trailer!

    I put these on at the boat ramp after a hunt. They went on easy, I think it was 5 or 6 screws in each. They were counter sunk in small pre made slotted holes.

    Frozen to the trailer!

    I put these on so my boat would come off the trailer easier in those low water or "flat" boat ramps. Let me tell you, it shoots off like a rocket. These might help with your problem too.

    Starting outboard in extreme cold

    This might not be practical for you with your 40, but with my 20, I'm using store bought ethanol free gas. The Husqvarna almost 5 gallon can lasted me all season. I bought the VP real 5 gallon can to top of my 3 gallon tank to get me out for geese. Since ethanol free gas isn't available at the...

    A great season

    Forget it, lol. I see it all the time at my club. As soon as the kids "get it" their eyes and reflexes are sharper than ours. You can still practice and stay respectable. I saw you guys out there once, I know you guys had a good time, I was duck repellent and directed all the birds to you...

    Season recap...

    The new boat worked out excellent for me. I am able to hide it in the marsh almost as good as the Estuary, but my seating position in the DI works out better for me. I'm able to position the boat against the bank and hunt off the side. It just works great for me. Covid tried to ruin my season...

    Season recap...

    Great recap of your season. Sounds like a great one to me, except for the props🤣. I too had a fun season in CT.

    Thanks to Steven Sanford

    Ken, My duck hunting buddy with the DW boat who is not on this site or internet savvy found Steve's site some how and also used his paint recommendation on some of our spread. The colors are spot on. Previously he has "missed" on picking the right colors. Steve is helping more people than...

    South Bay Duck Boat Seating

    https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B007PIRAYE/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_NXVHETQHFXVV18CKRH6M?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 I bought 2 of these. Very comfortable and low. Lately I've been sitting on a 3 gallon mastic bucket with a throw able cushion. I'm sitting a little higher that I prefer, but shoot much...

    Overseas Outboard Dealers

    I was researching outboards online also. Then I went to a local marina and talked with them about ordering an outboard from them. I lucked out, and bought a nice 2018 from a buddy when he heard I was looking. From what I understand, the overseas motors were not intended to be sold in the...

    Scaup, Brant, and Gadwall Notes

    I'm not sure if Nick and Ken's secret spot, is also my secret spot, but there were plenty of brant and broadbill. The broadbill and brant mostly stayed along the coast and avoided us today. We were able to fool a few groups of broadbill none the less. A single brant was coming our way just as...

    Finally "it" has appeared.

    No way, lol. I'm old, or at least on my way. I find this behavior funny too.

    Rats! NDR

    Congratulations! I will stop over before they go to their new homes to visit. Maybe I'll wear my jacket with a game pouch to smuggle one home![;)]

    Turning the corner on sea ducks

    Congratulations Andrea on the triple! Sounds like a lot of fun. I know how you feel, I've been working my ass off for a couple ducks! Obviously it's still a great day with or without ducks, but it's also satisfying to shoot more than a few from time to time.
