I do use the boat a couple times a year for turkey access, but I haven't killed one that way yet. Long Island gets the shaft on a number fo fronts - no rail either, I would think there would eb plenty in the south bay marshes. Yep, that's why I'm glad I bought a truck to get to those zones...

Sorry to hear of your loss, Maggie sounds like a great hunting partner. I know you are looking for another Chesapeake bay retriever, and I can't blame you they are really great dogs. Nice to hear the stories of our old 4 legged friends, they never go away.

What no pictures of you with carrying a tom walking back in your waders? Are you practicing with your turkey call or your duck call.... I'd say you need to practice both to cover all bases. But since I've never gotten a turkey, yet, I really should say anything. This year is my year...

It stood there probably because it saw his reflection ;0) Very cool just to see one.

Give Kodiak a happy birthday wish.... an indestructable chew toy (if one exists, I've yet to find one)... and a romp in the water (if it's not frozen).

Lou, Thanks for these tutorials and future tutorials on other species. My biggest hang up thus far has been painting. In the past I beleive you were doing an oldsquaw painting get together/class but the travel would be too much. I even inquired about videos if available, but they...

Geez Dave, That's a real scary event, are you sure aliens weren't involved? ;0) Just kidding, I'm glad to hear you are ok. Falling from a ladder doesn't sound like fun. Keep your feet on the ground. -Jack

I'll throw a few prayer your way. All that's happened is nothing when it comes to ones health. Think positive.

I like driving, but that trip might require a flight. The harlequin duck is a quest bird for me, someday I'll get out there and look you up... I owe you a few beers. Why do you need to pull the Barnegat?? is it heading to NY??

I wish you could have heard half the conversation. Thankfully they slept most of the way. I'm looking forward to another hunt, first I'll pick recommended guides from this site. It's a lesson learned. On a good note, my duck season ended with some great shots with long time hunting...

No apology needed, I didn't take offense. I understood what you were saying, but I just wanted to give you and idea of the shot range. My next trip will be better, I'm sure. I did this on a whim, because I trusted my friend and he bragged about the place. The jerk string should have...

Thanks George, My feelings were split, I wanted out fast but my "friends" were there to hunt (shoot) birds. I just couldn't take it anymore and let them know I'm going home. The ride back, they still couldn't figure out why I was upset with the entire hunt. My one "friend" has been using...

Lee, The money was cash up front. I wasn't bent about that, I'll make more god willing. The tip ... no way in hell. I made the point to the group that all of us would get tickets for the events that were going on if not locked up. They were oblivious to the regs. and felt I was over...

Jay, I've sent out a message to the Law officers in the FWS. You are 100% right, the guys I went down there with me made me feel like the bad egg. If I was to hunt Arkansas again I wouldn't use these outfitters.... http://waterfowlexpress.net/index.html...

I met some very nice folks in a crawfish restaurant outside of wheatley. They were the highlight of my trip, I wish I took the time to grab a card to thank them for a great dinner. It's a trailer shack on the outside, but don't let that stop you from stoping in to eat. Good people. The...

Great post. Thomas is turning into a true sportsman. You are a great role model for him to follow, I think you'll be fine with the teen years. -Jack

As I type, I'm reluctant to even post this but I'll keep names out ... I took a trip to Arkansas for a duck hunt with friends who bragged about this guide and the birds that they shoot. I traveled over 18 hrs to hunt ducks in my truck with so much excitement that I couldn't sleep. The...

That's why the sanitation workers are so pissed... the garbage bags can only hold 12 birds. :0) Thanks for the recipe.

Nice limit and pictures. BWT are on my list of quest birds, we don't see too many up here during the hunting season. The GWT, well there's still a few stragglers in the area but they probably will move out soon with the marsh icing up. Your later post on skybusters and roost hunting is...

Tod, You took the words right out of my mouth.... That picture with the pintail..... Oh baby!!! I don't usually see them around on our coast, but they seem to be around this year. -Jack
