Looking for some input, I've always had a pole on the work skiff, for flats work and back up power..lol I made one out of 1" PVC that worked ok but you had to work the bend right, I was going to cut a white cedar pole, but they're all on county property here and I don't need an arrest...

The old xtratuff boots are legendary in Alaska, [smile], and they were very comfortable, and long lasting, unfortunately they too went offshore to some asian country for manufacture and allegedly are not of the same quality. That was more then a few years ago now so I don't know if they upped...

I used all the generic tanks, they're all good enough, The walmart tanks are cheap and as good as the rest, just get the fitting you need. A few years ago my tank was stolen out of the work skiff, I was in a bind and needed a tank like right now. went to West marine and asked for a tank, $80...

I wear rubber boots daily, Used to use the LaCross boots but since they went to china, the rubber doesn't last, used to wear the vikings years ago but they're a pain to get dried with the wool fleece lining.. Had a pair of Muck edgewaters that are super comfortable, but not that warm, they...

I run a 40hp tiller on my commercial skiff, tons of hours, thousands of shifts, lighter in weight to other 4 strokes, and all servicable parts/filters are out in the open so you don't have to take the cowlings off, I'm on my second one, and won't run anything else. I have most of the commercial...

May he rest in peace, condolences to his family

I fish commercially out of a Carolina 19 with a 40hp Honda, I regularly put a 1,000# of product ,spread out on it and still get it on plane,I had a J16 with an 18 hp outboard that was scary fast with a full load of eel pots, boxes and a 12 year old son. A 16 CS with a 40 should be way more then...

That device is an old fashioned hand bilge pump used for larger decked over boats. My old 34foot bayboat had one that was galvanized steel sheet metal. There was a covered hole in the deck located in the deepest part of the bilge, put the pump through and start pumping. the length was governed...

I like the bilge pump idea, cheaper then a sump pump, even if you have to cart the battery back and forth, its lighter then a trash pump. I wonder how long a small lawn tractor battery would last?

I cant answer your questions, but the ITX 10 is roughly the same as lead, we killed a lot of blacks and mallards with 1 1/4 oz lead 6s and 5s, at about 1200 or so fps, with 5s better as I found that a lot of the 6s just penetrated the skin. Of course the cheap lead loads with the 6 shot wasnt...

It depends, they could be decorative, very nice by the way, but why put a line attachment on it? Or they could have been made for usually still waters so they would move better in a breeze. They look like theyll float fine the way they are. Here..., on the coast we put keels on them and...

Can you install a 12v. sump pump and leave it there?, then just need a battery with a solar trickle charger, you could keep it in the pit in a floating box/container.

ALL enforcement personnel has the discretion to write , or not,, problem is too many believe your guilty of something anyway, somewhere, at some time, and theyre going to hammer you, you never know what kind your gonna get. Not a risk worth taking.

If you have, or can find Eugene Connets duck decoys and how to make them, he has several Boyle head designs, a few others too, most from the south shore. If you cant find the book, let me know, I can print out the head designs, they are just a profile for cutting out the blank, and no two people...

Have you checked the battery electrolyte? whenever mine gets a little low and the plates start showing Ill get a weak first start then its good for the day, I have to add water every couple months, top it off and it acts like new again.

I always used latex paint cork or plastic it held up fine, Try flat quaker brown mixed with flat black to get the color you want. No its not off the shelf, Maybe Lou has an off the shelf black duck brown.

There were a LOT of eiders last year by shinnecock inlet, noticing more scoters then normal around the s,shore inlets, saw a few the other day almost land in the black floats by an oyster farm, lol, Have a couple doz. large lobster pot floats that should work....

Never hunted them, been ignoring them but have them at the inlet. Considering hunting them from the work skiff, on long lines, what would be a reasonable amount of decoys, and would adding eiders with all that white be worthwhile? Any thoughts, opinions, or guesses welcomed... Thanks

Get the grundens in green, youll be dry, dry is warm.....
