No road food for us, we are still eating our leftovers. Were almost into Iowa, wind here is cranking. Lots of geese in Illinois and Indiana but a lot of crashed 18 wheelers in Pennsylvania and Ohio. We hope to keep cruising all night.

were all packed and about to hit the road. I have spear gear, fishing gear, kayaks, carving stuff, waders. You know the important stuff Were hoping to get well into Iowa today. Hopefully the weather cooperates. Now only 44ish hours of driving till we get there If we stop anywhere ill take...

Thanks for posting, i always look foward to your posts

Congrats! Perfect timing too. Im looking foward to finally meeting up with you.

Nikki is a travel OR nurse. I have been eyeing a little cabin on an island five minutes from Sitka. If she ever got a contract at the Sitka hospital i would just have to buy it. Maybe someday....

We are really looking foward to escaping the winter dulldrums, actualy living out there for a bit will allow us to see if we truly like it. Im realy hoping it doesnt dump snow before or during our ride. Its kind of a long ride to where we actually were looking at houses but this location will...

I had to wait till i told Pete in person to post this here, but Nikki just accepted her next contract at Tacoma General! It starts mid January and runs through April. Were excited to take the next step, though we are a little leary of city life. Her schedule will be 3 12’s so there will be...

You need a scull boat, its nice being able to play with the untouchable birds in open water. But for some reason gaddies make me every single time, i need a west coast boat for them

I knew this law existed, but what do they do with the bird? Could you ask the warden for the meat? Most states have a quirky law or two if you go through them all.

I followed hank shaw’s guidelines for the temp/cook time. 450-475 for 20-25 min. Look up honest-food.com I stuffed the cavity with onions garlic and a bay leaf, the breast side was rubbed with oil, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, and garlic. Came out awesome, big ol fat mallards are delicious...

Yesterday was the first for sculling for the year, it was a high of over 50 sunny amd zero wind. Perfect for sculling but the seacoast is a hard float to hide without any chop. I cant wait to get a west coast boat, if anyone has a hayden gathering dust.... We initialy launched for some...

Here is a loose recipe, i like changing them everytime i do it and dont measure precisly but here it is. 1 eider 2 scoter 1 hoodie Breasted out remove ALL fat silver skin and coagulated blood Cut into strips against the grain Soak over night in a brine of saltwater, brown sugar, fresh...

Normaly i eat hoodies alongside mallards after just a very quick sear, anything past blue rare is over done. Just a little salt pepper rosemary and butter in a piping hot cast iron. Red breast and commons are chili ducks though. Never eaten brant but i have heard since the eel grass disapeared...

Kosher salt brown sugar and black pepper.

i have been having too much fun diving to go duck hunting or early goosing. The scull float hasnt even hit the water yet. All that changed this week. My brother in law and our shared custody puppy decided we were going to hunt thanksgiving morning, we didnt scout and were just realy looking...

good luck with the shaggy manes, the most prevalent lie in any mans life is, "just one more cast" have a good holiday!

Yep they are tog and basically the only species you can regularly get with a spear in CT. If it is clear they will come over and investigate you. They are very inquisiative, if vis drops below 4 ft, they are unbelievably jumpy and its very hard to get a shot.

Thanks for the story. Good title too! A set of carhart or grundens rain gear is on the christmas list this year. Im tired of my drake rainjacket springing new leaks, ill definetly need good rain gear in the PNW. A buddy from VT lives in wheelock and sent me a picture of bacon for 9.19$ a...

i have been having way to much fun chasing togs and spending too much time at work. Didnt get out for early goose and havent even shot a squirrel. Probably have another week before they move out, the gale force southerly blow tonight will destroy the awesome vis i had today, so i wont get...

There was a little whining from me about the messed up vis from the front, no spearing this weekend. That was fixed with the other kind of wine though. The wineberry wine i made earlier this summer is quite delicious! I love my little savage 17 hmr. Its a tack driver even with a cheap scope...
