There has not been a early Teal Season in NY for many years. The 3 Pintails a day will be welcome by many NY waterfowl hunters as they do stop and pass thru in decent numbers on their way to NC. my 2 cents

Carl, Thank You very much. Their was one Pied -billed Grebe (then a pair) on my favorite LM Bass and Bluegill pond this Spring for over a month. I would watch and observe that bird and it never ceased to amaze me. What animated and beautiful birds they are. I've always enjoyed them so it was...

Tim, I do believe that you'll be fine. "Out of nowhere" is where many of getting older medical issues come from until the doctors and WE dig deeper. Some can be explained and others heck no. We have no idea? But THIS is what we gotta Do to try to correct them. As the best doctors have told me...

The doctors are getting older and burned out. I like having young doctors, nurses, etc. The ones I have seen for various reasons seem to be very passionate and knowledgeable. We live in a time of medical miracles. When WE get old all the things we should not have done when younger come to call...

Some of the best riding and swimming river use wood and canvas covered decoys I've made have no keels just lead pads. Where the anchor line is attached to the decoy is crucial, as is the length of anchor line. Barrel Snap & Swivel do wonders.... Farther back the weight of/on the decoy there is...

The design of the decoy, how it's made and it's use dictates IF a keel is needed or not. Specifics are broad, hollow decoy, solid decoy, cork, wood, canvas, plastic, etc. Study the old decoys from all areas and you will learn much. Ya want a short cut, there are none. Anchor line wrapped around...
