There are groups that sail converted Ice boats out on the salt flats in Utah and over on The Alvord desert in SE Oregon. I'd bet that the Mormon folks in Salt lake city have a group that goes out there and does that. Might ask someone at their church HQ and see...

We'd occasionally get some runs of smelt during the last couple of weeks of the season. The river would be at high volume and the whopping tides made for inundated farms and pastures all around the region. I'd love to be able to pick up a few oysters. That sounds good. What kind do you...

So we're a little slow on the uptake.

My father was a neurosurgeon. His favorite procedure to perform was carpal tunnel. He said that it was a fairly simple operation and the patient would always come in in pain and leave with no pain. It worked and worked well and the patients were grateful and it improved their lives.

Just out of curiosity, what do you reckon that Ithaca weighs (loaded). My buddy had an ithaca 10 ga auto that I we took along as a backup on a hunt years ago. We had to do a portage in the canoe to get to our spot and I carried it a ways. It must have been close to 12-15 lbs. I couldn't...

Decided to get the red dog out for a day of diver hunting, I slept in too late. Last night I told Anya to put her knee into my back if I didn’t wake up to the alarm. I have to hand it to Anya, she keeps her word. I felt her knee in my back, then it was in my hip. Up into my spleen, across my...

Bob, I used my photo editing software to soup up your photos a bit. Looks like you guys had a pretty good day out there.

Awe inspiring Silver slamon and such great photos. What month did you guys do this expedition?

For sure, Enjoy every minute you can with that birddog. Take lots of pictures so you can remember all the places and things you guys did together. I cherish all the photos and stories I was able to put together with my birddogs.

I believe there are lay lines that the ducks use as they migrate. A vortex is right in that neck of the woods. I did a patrol in the old Duckbomber boat on a nice day, before the season started. I went at low tide specifically to find all of the deadheads and make note of their...

awesomeness.

Nicely done. That DW looks like it is well designed for the purpose and the big water. There were only a few times I had to abort a hunt due to the conditions in my DW boat. It was an earlier model. It was supposed to be a 17 but turned out to be a 19 with the pods on the back. We were...

how did he do that? I wonder if he could do one for me? Is it a composite of different photos done in Layers? Is he a graphic artist? Very nice work.

The stringer would be under the floor

There's got to be ribs and a stringer between the hull and the interior platform floor of the boat. I had a Duckwater boat when he first got started making them and it was a tank. I'd venture the reason you haven't heard from him is because this is high season for diver hunting in some...

Thanks Cody, I am working on the book. I have nearly 100 stories now and for now I am substacking them. Some day I aim to put them in print. I am not really certain about how to do it, unless I have the Devil in Amazon handle it for me. I have some friends that have had less than...

I've got a lever action that shoots .38 special and .357 Mag that might work to handle a beaver better than a.22. But am uncertain about night scope options for it. A.223 for sure has night scope options that the pig hunters use. your target will probably only be its head and that is about the...

Great to see some folks stepping up. This site is the best of the best of artists and craftsmen (and lady.). We need fresh blood and renewed enthusiasm after losing so many of the old guard.
