No idea but cool looking marsh boat!

testors dulle coat.

Following! My smokercraft is an early 80s hull. No leaks yet but sooner or later…..

A first time for me: did the turkey on the gas grill (not enough oven space inside with all the pies and casseroles to cook). Came out great, did a 8.5# bird, brined overnight.

Not missing anything here! I’ve already started cooking sweet potatoes, turkey is still in the brine. Lots more to do!

In coastal Alabama, mottled ducks were very wary and would not show up in parks and urban storm water ponds. After the first two weeks of the season we rarely saw them Here in Tampa, they are all over urban areas. I’ve seen them walking across McDonalds parking lots going from one storm water...

There was a pile of scaup just north of the Gandy on the Pinellas side this weekend. Each year I am tempted to get a licence and stamp and hunt the last half, just havent gotten fully motivated! The fishing is so good year around, its a tough choice.

Mottled duck hybrids can be very common in parts of Florida. Which is why they finally had to issue guidance. All the mottled ducks I killed in Alabama looked like pure mottled ducks.

This is some of the best clearest guidance I have seen out of any DNR on hybrids & bag limits, which I know from conversations on this site is a problem with black & mallard hybrids in the northeast. Do other states have similar guidance on black ducks vs mallards? Is it this clear...

Feeder Butts: If you ever watch a flock of ducks tipping to feed from a distance with the sun at your back, the flashes of white as they tip stands out like a flashbulb going off! When we had lots of gadwalls on Mobile Bay and I was hunting 25-30 days out of the season, I used 3 dzn gadwalls...

From myFWC: General Duck - 6 ducks, including no more than 4 mallards (of which only 2 can be female), 4 sea ducks (of which no more than 3 may be scoters, long-tailed ducks, or eiders and no more than 1 may be a female eider), 3 wood ducks, 2 redheads, 2 black ducks, 2 canvasbacks, 3 pintails...

To be clear, its one scaup for most of the season, then 2 for the last part of the season. Last Friday on the way home there were no scaup to be seen on Hillsborough Bay. Yesterday on the way home, there were literally thousands of them rafted up off of Bayshore Drive. What a difference a few...
