    Grass rail question

    I replaced all my grass rails with stretched bungee cord run through cable tv clamps....fast, easy and durable, enough. If you want wood, you should be able to find oak you can cut down.

    Anchoring advice needed for my Estuary

    Its called an anchor chock, attach at the bow, run anchor line through it, it will stay cause of the offset "horns" , put a anchoring cleat, or use your stern cleat, where you can easily reach it... The anchor stays IN the boat, the anchor line is attached to the stern, or reachable cleat., and...

    Admitting my mistake, need advice...

    It'll be fine, just wash it down if you want, spray the inside tubes with oil if you can and stop worrying... it will last years before it gets to the point of replacement. Here, its practically ocean water, everything is in the salt, even galv trailers don't last forever., besides, you don't...

    So "here" theres been a steady influx of scotors and Eiders in the bay over the last couple years, never had them before and never hunted them. Any advice on decoys, tactics, is appreciated. I realize these things ain't the brightest bulbs in the chandelier, but I'd like to avoid a big...

    Wood keel/gunnel protection On marsh skiff

    Thats a nice boat....The simplest solution for the gunnels is a screw on wood rub rail like Steve suggests, any hardwood, mahogany, even pine would do, consider it a expendable wear item so make sure it's easy to replace, I have also split pvc pipe for the same purpose, pre drill and countersink...

    Questions on propellers

    You need a lower pitch, likes been inferred, whatever you have now is listed on the prop, the second number is the pitch, going down one size should give you about 150- 2something more rpms...ideally a tach will show you where you are, with a normal load you want to be about top rpm for your...

    Rehabbing Mystery Goose Silhouettes

    Steve, I'm thinking they're not factory, I've never seen anything like those advertised anywhere since the 70's. Masonite was the go to material way back for home made. If they were hand made, I'd say the guy did a pretty good job.

    Dumb question

    Guys tend to over think this stuff, they feel every passing bird should decoy to their irresistible spread, and when they don't, it must be the spread, or paint job, whatever. I've often made the comment that I can decoy hard hunted, public ground Black ducks with old Flambeau plastic decoys...

    What the heck is wrong with people these days?

    All the selling sites are like that, people don't read the ad, ask questions that are answered in the ad, want to know if you'll deliver, offer far less then your asking, and never show up... I wouldn't contact them to ask if they're coming, just assume they're not, and if they do , the offering...

    Lights for Setting Decoys in the Dark and...

    The best use of the spotlight is to warn off other hunters, who invariably want to set with one foot in your boat.... Something I often did, especially first few days of the season, was after setting, in the dark, I'd walk 100 yds both sides of the rig and hang a small battery lantern a few...
