    Canoe/Kayak/Ducker packing for river trip

    I agree with Troy, Kyle. Hard to beat canoe for hauling gear and weight. I would even consider going to 2 two canoe's instead of 4 boats. Check your regs and see if you can bone them and just save the head to identify sex. Deer take up a lot of room in boat. Sounds like a great time

    Yes, that is correct. It was one heavy son of a gun to boot. I guess it made them hard to steal. He traded some guy a sun dial for it :)

    NE zone duck seasons 5 year model

    You are correct Rick, the task force helped with the matrix but does not submit yearly dates . The model based on "structured decision making" was developed from the hunters survey and the 10 year E-bird data. I like that Zones won't open on the same dates, and that the state optimized...
