    Winter is here. Who’s hunting?

    Today was last day of duck here in CT. Beautiful duck hunting weather. We got our 2 scaup each, and we're satisfied.

    Towing cross country on small trailer tires...

    @Jay K got me thinking. Over 25 years ago trailering our 1964 14' fiberglass MFG duck boat, just an open hull, the trailer axle broke. We were on I 91 in CT, pulled over, then looked over the situation for a bit. Somehow, I don't know how we did it, we put all the decoys, the boat, motor...

    Towing cross country on small trailer tires...

    That is good common practice for normal local use, in my opinion. I would "rebuild " with new bearings, races and seals before a cross country trip for peace of mind. I'd rather start out new to avoid a failure. On my motorcycle, I replace the bearings on most tire changes, especially since...

    Pouring Decoy Anchors

    In my own experience, my weights would become brittle and week when I heated my lead too hot. If I keep the pot on high heat after it melts, the weights are kinda brittle. After my lead is all liquid, I turn down the heat. If it starts to harden up, I up the heat. It's not too difficult to find...

    Handloads.

    Where are you getting your load data? What powder are you using? Good luck on the hunt

    Fresh From The Mailbox A New Book From Worth Mathewson

    Thanks for the heads up. I just ordered a copy from Amazon.

    Handloads.

    I reload all my lead skeet and trap and pheasant loads, but just never got into non toxic loading. If i could get my hands on bismuth or TSS shot at a reasonable cost, I'd load them too. Even lead is expensive now. I have a stock plie of components for my lead loads that makes them cheap to...

    Pacific Black Brant Hunt Humboldt Bay

    That's how I feel across the sound in CT. 30 day season, 1 a day. 12/16 to 1/18. It's still a sin to hunt waterfowl on Sundays in CT! I had a flock of 40+ right over my head mid November

    Great story and boat. Did you say where you live, and where you are going to hunt with your new boat?

    Pacific Black Brant Hunt Humboldt Bay

    I love watching and hunting brant here in CT. It is mesmerizing when they come in singing and dancing over the decoys. I see a lot on the shore, but now we have a 1 bird limit, with a 30 day season that starts on the 16th. @Nick Zito must get the brant that have been here for a while, and my...

    Arkansas Opener Video from Public Land

    @Eric Patterson and all, more and more costal ramps that are town owned in CT are charging to use the ramp. One spot we are playing $32 each day! It's either that or a long boat ride, in this case many miles on the Long Island Sound! If it's not one thing, it's another!

    Arkansas Opener Video from Public Land

    I've never seen anything like this! I couldn't imagine that drag race is allowed. To each his own I guess. I'd imagine a draw for spots would eliminate the drag race and spot hoarders. What do you think? The hunting pressure in my area of CT is pretty low, but then again so are the numbers...

    Winter is here. Who’s hunting?

    Cool picture I miss your videos, because your marshes are similar or remind me the marshes I hunt here in CT. I totally understand about giving away your spots, I get it! I hate when people post about spots that I hunt, only takes a few extra hunters to over pressure some small areas where I...
