Episode 2 is up now, having fun making these so far. https://youtu.be/Sn2dvo8akeE

Eric I actually have one about halfway done explaining my system. That'll be out in the near future.

Saturday was our opening day in the south zone for NJ and while I had already been out a few times for our north zone I always look forward to each zone's opening day. As a bonus I had my dad along for the first time this season, always a great time to have him along. The spot I had selected...

Not salt hay (spartina patens). What you have is spartina alterniflora, aka cordgrass. Of course in NJ I call spartina alterniflora spartina and call spartina patens salt hay.

Looking good Jode! Some good mojo with that rig.

It was great chatting with you Saturday morning Steve. Those two boxes are both by Marty Kristiansen, one is his traditional model and the other is the planing highlands box.

Very nice! My aunt and uncle have a place on Rangeley that I have yet to make it up to.

^^^ This, not sure where you're from but even in NJ finding a high box is becoming almost impossible. And they are going for 2x what they went for new due to demand. DB13 would fit the need nicely and easier to find.

Couple different varieties, old school and new school. Salt hay and spartina on my cedar boat, raffia and spartina on my glass boat.

It was a duckboats.net member who is a licensed captain. If there ever was a day you were going to do it last Saturday would have been one. Flat as a lake most of the day. Of course I used to run my 23 regulator with a single 100 miles off so I'm not one to talk.

Not on the same level as the rest of the talented carvers/artists on here, but I did my own duck related wood working recently. Wrapped up a painting project in my living room with trying to figure out how to fill some of the space that 16 ft ceilings bring... this was my idea: Multi-species...

That higbee isn't designed for two guys, it's a one man boat. My two man boat isn't a traditional sneakbox whatsoever. It's a Delaware bay design...

12ft 6" for my two man boat. I have a Bob Fricke glass over cedar one man sneakbox, that boat gets a 15 hp yamaha two stroke. Haven't used that boat in a few years however.

You could probably get away with a 9.9, plenty of guys do, but once you start adding grass, decoys, gear, etc. you'd be better off with a 15. I could easily get away with a 15 on my sneakbox, but when I have two dozen decoys, two guys and it's blowing a gale I'm glad I have a 25.

That rig will run like a speed boat with a 15hp two stroke. That's what everyone runs on them out this way. Higbees are light weight planing hulls.

I spent two days in Maryland and Delaware last weekend hunting snows and we did pretty well. 170 birds over two days with a couple nice blues and one band.

I was painting my master bath this weekend and had to get some behr samples and couldn't help but think of your decoys Steve. I did pick a wigeon/pintail bill style color.

That wigeon is in my freezer along with a stud spoonie from this season. Would like to do a ultimate puddle duck limit dead mount at some point...

Come on Jay... 12ft highs and a meadow muffin. John's got every Roy boat from here to the St. Lawrence seaway.

Congrats on a successful end to the season Jay. As I've told you many times, if you can fool NJ black ducks you can fool anything.
