Greetings from Houghton Lake. A great time was had by all last night. We shared some wonderful food and fellowship. There were some awesome decoys that were raffled and auctioned raising money for a great cause. On a down note it was unfortunate that Blake had to return home early and was unable...

Hi Guys, I was driving by the lake yesterday and noticed a few flocks of bluebills of pretty decent size. I plan on hunting there tomorrow so I'll give another report then. See ya soon, Chris

I'd like to ask the good members of this site for recommendations on retriever training books and or dvds. I've had to put down my twin springers over the last month and am now looking for a lab puppy. I'd prefer methods that don't involve electronic collars, not that I have anything against...

Jim, I haven't seen the net type for shotguns, just semi-auto rifles. This company makes box type catchers for a few shotguns, might be worth a look. http://www.brasscatchers.com/store/brasscatcher.html Regards, Chris

I'll be praying for your speedy recovery Scott! Good luck Thursday. Chris

Damn, I never got to meet him but I always enjoyed his wit and wisdom on this site. He was one of those that made this forum so much more than just a website. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. Chris

How are the lakes looking down there? All the water up here turned hard last night. My local lake was covered in ducks and geese yesterday and I decided to go deer hunting instead. Drove to the ramp this morning and the whole lake was frozen, DOH! Didn't get a deer either! Chris

I'll be there.
