Scott, Many top shooters have used S/S shotguns to great affect. Robert Churchill, a hero of mine, favored one with 25" barrels. He was a master with a shotgun where I clearly am not. So too are the majority of shooters and most of us choose what we shoot well. In my case it is a Benelli semi...

OK, it is ordered. Thank you, RM

Don, I like this seat! Does the muck come out of the tube easy enough? RM

Henry, While in Austin, be sure to visit Franklin BBQ. He is a James Beard chef and is famous for world class brisket. They open at 11 am and sell out by noon. We got in line at 7am and had 25 or so people in front of us. By the time the doors opened the line wrapped around the block. You can...

Noah, Thanks for your review! I always read the negative reviews before purchasing as you learn much more about a product. RM

...Does it come in Dull Dead Grass?

Allan, Owned a used Ithaca S/S and thought it worked well for closer targets but the wider sighting plane made longer shots more difficult. Yes, I know you point a shotgun not aim but it just seemed the additional mass was a distraction at distance. On a positive note I believe the S/S is the...

Dave, That deluxe model looks pretty comfy. It is really hard to stay seated for long periods sans back rest. I'll be going to Scheels in Fargo perhaps as early as this weekend. RM https://alpsoutdoorz.com/deluxe-wetland-seat.html

Richard, I have seen it there as well and indeed tried reading it during my last infusion. Maybe I'm too old to embrace online books or just prefer turning pages. Hard to pass on a good used book for just a few bucks. RM

Anthony, Is Guide Gear from Sportsmans Guide or Gander Mountain?

Dani, Depends on location. Last year I made due with a folding lawn chair when water level was down. Plus lawn chairs sink quite a bit. This summer we've had quite a bit of rain but I haven't bushwacked a trail through the cattails to find out how deep the water is where I hunted previously...

Just ordered my copy of Four Months in a Sneakbox at ThritfBooks! RM

Yeah, that is kind of what I used last year and you are right about the keister sometimes being underwater. Hoping for a bit more freeboard this year if possible. RM

My phone is spying on me.Sent me this suggestion... Avian-X Ergo Ultimate Marsh Seat | SCHEELS.com https://share.google/5ZFI1hP3wq07xZpyT

Thanks, I'll check it out. RM

Henry, The cake icing bags seem to work better than any other method I've tried. To fill them I insert them into a tall measuring cup like a trash bag liner. My fillets are probably overkill for a human powered skiff but I like to error on the side of caution. The hull is 1/4" but the bulkheads...

Heat gun and scraper. Failing that you could flip the boards over like Dave recommended, paint the fresh surface with Wetlander and equip the whole family with Steve Sanford's boots to prevent slips and falls. RM

Roy, I've noticed alot of marsh seats are constructed of steel. That has always struck me as odd. Making your own using a push pole foot is a great suggestion. Thanks, RM

Henry, In retrospect I think I know why you fillets looked small; because mine are too big! Fillets were one area that I truly struggled. At the end of the project I had greatly improved, but it was my least enjoyable task. If you don't mind me asking, how do you lay the bead for the fillets? I...

Mark, My sister in law actually did that. A few years ago they purchase a summer home in MN (reside in Fargo ND). Long story short, they have a phobia of trees because of a lightning storm incident many year ago. The following summer after purchasing they cut down every mature white pine on the...
