    FWC Mottled Duck vs. Mallard

    Carl Any opinions on the new ADCNR director? Press releases say he comes from the Law Enforcement side of the house instead of the normal biology side. I'm hoping he somehow reverses the WMA regulation changes made in recent years.

    I really appreciate hearing everyone's thoughts and some great points have been made. Let me add a few more of my thoughts to the mix. @Scott Gilliland I think you should start the FB Nunavut duck hunters page. I'll join if you do because I don't know a single duck hunter from there and would...

    SJ The batch I made is already spoken for. I don't have immediate plans to make another batch but definitely will in the future. Thanks.

    Steve The bowling pin analogy never occurred to me but now that you mention it, I can see the similarity. As for me I'm a quite average 5'9" so they look and feel big in my hands. There definitely is some satisfaction holding one. I think deep down everyone likes really BIG ordinary everyday...

    To Those That Participate on FB Duck Hunting Groups

    Let me point this out. Everything you say is true, however it is all a PAIN IN THE ASS to deal with and the risk of doing business on FB exceeds my thresh hold. Either Meta doesn't care enough to run those folks out or the problem is too big and just a reflection of the world we live in. When...

    Scott I have no doubt there are some good groups, especially ones that are actively moderated. I was just taken back by the amount of posts that were pure spam on several of the forums I surfed today. I'll be honest, I've never really liked FB and have always preferred communities run by...

    Carl They have beer hunting in Japan? I thought that sport died.

    Scott They are not. C.H. Amaden passed away a number of years ago. The calls have risen in value substantially so if you have one take care of it.

    Henry Your epoxy and tape work is very tidy. She's turning out like a pro built it.

    SJ & Jode Thanks. They are actually working calls which was my plan all along but I wasn't sure if I could get them to blow properly since they have a giant tone board and reed. They do. Now I've got to come up with a lanyard of sorts.

    Does the Spam not drive you away? I popped over to a few duck hunting related boards I've not visited in quite some time and holy crap the spamming going on is on a whole other level and most of it is from within the duck hunting industry like guide services, lodging, gizmos, and personal stuff...

    I am in the home stretch now. All that is left is to put the finish and decals on them. I've been working on the build videos the entire time so that is just about complete too. I'm really glad I took this project on. I expanded my repertoire with the patternmaker lathe and made some jigs I...

    Estuary with 25 hp Yamaha in Ottawa, Ontario

    To me it looks wet from perhaps being cleaned up for sale pictures. Hard to tell from those pictures.

    Estuary with 25 hp Yamaha in Ottawa, Ontario

    I'm surprised this boat isn't long gone. The new price to me is crazy low given the age and condition. Dave ought to buy it back and resell to someone on his wait list.

    This Season's Project.. 1928 Benjamin Hallock Gunning Scooter

    @Steve Sanford the force is strong in this one. Anthony, such nice work and the video, as always, is a pleasure to watch. I got a note on IG after I reposted you story telling me what an awesome boat that is. I made sure to let them know it was your work and not mine!
