I am in the market for a new boat next season. need something that does good in the mud. have been looking at a bunch of hulls and long tails and surface drives. if you own one , please chime in and let me know what you like or dislike and what you think the best bet for the northeast would be.

if it is really bad and you don't want to refinish it. just put a DU sticker over the smudge if not, sand stain and poly, and take it in the garage first!!

two at once is lucky LOL that only happens to me with 3" of slush on the roads. never had two go, was there something in the road that would have blown them?

thanks for the replies I contacted a friend who is a yamaha and etec dealer the full synthetic outboard oil that I have in quantity is a TCW rated oil and the dealer thought it would be a great oil for the older 9.9 so I will give it a try this weekend and see how it goes. it is not by...

I have a 9.9 yamaha 2 stroke. runs a mix of 100-1 with tcw3 I have a bunch of synthetic 2 stoke oil at the house, that I use in my chainsaws and garden equipment. stihl recommends it, and they all seem to run smoother with synthetic is there any reason an older 2 stoke yam would not be...

no way your going to save any money making your own. especially if you want wood gunning decoys. pick out one of the prominent carvers depending on the style you want. and go ahead and spend 2-3 grand on a full rig of stuff. they will last you a lifetime and it will save you many hours of...

imo there is nothing harder to do than drift in the tide with a kayak and jump some birds, drop paddle, try not to flip, raise gun and shoot in a millisecond, makes for some of the most challenging type of duck hunting ever invented.

I actually thought something had happened and I had died at the last turn very strange experience thursday morning I took my sneak box and motored up a large river there is a creek 100 yards wide off the main river that winds thru the marsh that I take to get to a spot. as I am winding...

steve, great set up although I have a concern, I hate open flames on any kind of boat, we do a lot of cooking on my boat all summer, and when I used to have a small novi that we lay out hunted out of, I would always bring a small gen set, and an electric frying pan. with a small honda 2000...

I hunt mostly full body wood decoys of the Chesapeake bay style, I have found that solid wood, round bottom, properly weighted decoys will ride large waves and wind just fine no replacement for displacement works on all boats large and very small

I've found that I can't seem to take the duck taste away so I have found things to compliment the taste of ducks, and they come out pretty good. some of the things that blend well with the flavor of divers spanish olives with pimentos , blue cheese, orange, smoke and always medium rare to...

those were nice calls, I used to have a dennison with a metal reed back in the early 90's one day out in the bay in january, with a motor that wouldn't start. I lost the one end of it in the bay, as I was desperately pulling the pull start. and it floated away never to be seen again. I...

I've found that mine is not the warmest hat i have, so I would be happy if it was big, then I could throw on another thin wool cap under the filson hat may be a blessing in disguise mine is tight so I have to switch off to another hat if the temps fall or I get cold during the day.

could it be a relief/ breather valve in the transmission is plugged up I have some transmission here at the shop that have a breather in the top of it, could the breather be plugged and cause the transmission to hydro lock , then after it forces the fluid thru the trans, developing high...

decoys can take a beating this is one of a dozen I made for a friend of mine, who is a guide in the NE, he killed over 800 birds a year over them. for 5-6 years, still good to go, but he is retiring this one.

I don't think they care! in NJ you are guilty until you hire a lawyer and prove yourself innocent.

always wanted to stand on the marsh edge, dressed as an old man, making pretend that I was throwing bread in the water. then I had a warden tell me to throw packing peanuts to look like bread. never did it as I thought he was trying to write me a ticket.

weight can be an issue with cork, all depends on your boat. if you are concerned with added weight, stick with plastics or foam. with cork or wood you will have to figure in repainting them every couple of years. cheap plastic you can throw away and just buy new ones cork birds are heavy ...

I used to have a pair of 150's on a center console and I have a 60 on my bankes the 150's were tough on the warranty offer seemed ever summer that I owned them two or three things would go wrong and have to go to the dealer for service I owned them for 5 years and the boat had to be towed...
