You're welcome. Glad to see you vertical and back home. Bill will forgive you before long. Don't navigate those steps before you're ready. I signed the lease on a hunting property the other day, moved the camper over too. I'll be right down the road this year. -D

Agreed Hitch. Great post. -D

I am taking care of the sale for him. He's doesn't do computers and asked that I take care of everything for him. -D

V-boards are extremely affective in the Chesapeake region. Each decoy equals 3 and they are easy to set out and pick up quickly. They do take a little more weight than your average floater, but are worth it. I use 12 sitting duck's plastic frames and reel geese silhouettes. It makes a rig of...

I'll be there Friday-Sunday and am looking forward to seeing everyone. George "Obi juan" Williams will not be in attendance this year. He's in Phys therapy after getting hip surgery last week. Everything went well and he's as ornery as ever. The doc's would let him keep the femoral head. He...

I agree with Jay. If I had to pick one STEEL load it would be the supreme #2's. If I got to pick a back up it would be kent fast steel #2's. -D

Thank you. -D

Thanks Chuck. Does Spar give UV protection? If I'mnot mistaken UV light will harm the epoxy. I don't think flocking will hold up to 3 children, I don't care what they say on the internet. DCON.....don't hate the playa.....hate the game. -D

My sister bought an old POS table at a flea market w/ a bench for pocket change. It has some grooves along the edges that keep catching crumbs. She has a 5 yr old, 3 yr old and is due with #3 anytime now, so this is simply a utility table to get her through the kid years until she can buy...

I started with an 870 many years ago and always loved it. My first auto loader was an 11-87 and it's still sitting in pieces in my gun closet, it just couldn't handle the hell I put my guns through. I hunted an SBE very hard for a few years and while it's still in decent shape, I did have to...

Bill- Drew said you should go to church to find her. -D

Yes, States can and do deny NR's the "PRIVILEGE" to hunt in their state. In an attempt to manage fisheries and wildlife States decide on a number of different rules, and yes "Denying" hunting is one of the many management techniques used. Death and Taxes are guarantees, hunting and fishing...

I'd argue that ducks are a public resource before they are a state or federal resource. Sure, they're managed Federally, but it should be up to the states to set the seasons just as they do. I agree with Matt and Bill, If you want to hunt in ND more, move there, otherwise you get what you...

Yes, you'll need the shims. The problem is that the transom is 90 degrees to the hull(vertical) and most outboards are designed to be up to 15 degrees from vertical. Post some pics when you get it up and running. -D

Canoes can carry a bunch until the tip over! There are a number of boats out there that perform much better under duck hunting conditions. Which devlin are you looking at? you can definitely modify the plans to make the boat work for your needs. -D

Mike- I said that a USFWS wing study told a friend of mine that a duck that had a wing exactly like the one you shot was a hybrid. I do not know if they did anything more than look at the wing to determine that. So, based on what USFWS said and the dark upper tail coverts and appearance of...

Of course I'd count that as my black duck as would every CO I've ever known. I'm simply stating what a biologist has said when coming across ducks similar to the one pictured. Heck, it might be 100% black, who knows. Here's a duck from last week that we counted as a mallard. We didn't...

That's a hybrid. The darkening of the upper tail coverts and the start of the curl are mallard traits. A friend sent in some wings to USFWS last year that looked exactly like the one on this black duck. The information that was sent back said that any white on the speculum of a black...
