    Alumacraft Retriever.

    https://www.facebook.com/share/cTDqCL1K4PBoDn3N/?mibextid=kL3p88 Its very close to me. If someone would like me to look at it or pick it up for them just let me know. Sure would be fun to strap a ducktwin on the back of it and cruise around!

    Ducker Layout blind.

    So over a year ago I purchased the Ascend Blind from Cabela's based on the measurement similarities to the Ducker. With moving into a new house last labor day I neglected to do anything prior to last duck season. I had one of my best duck hunting buddies in town from Saskatchewan this last...

    Two ducker catamaran

    I love my duckers, but paddling them is growing a little old and I would like to perhaps venture a little farther. Not wanting to sell them off yet also not wanting to invest in a bigger boat if one or both of my young sons decide to join me. Playing around with the idea of utilizing the two...

    WTB: Harold Duebbert decoy

    I haven't posted much recently but in the last couple years I have relocated with my family from the Black Hills of SD to Fergus Falls, MN. I stumbled into the information that the author of one of the historic waterfowling books I love spent a majority of the second half of his life in the town...

    Old Mama Kai

    Mama Kai was unexpected into our lives. Coming out of working on cattle ranches I had grew up with Aussies and never had experienced the joy of having a bird dog. Kai was thrust into our existense over 6 years ago. At the time I was managing a cattle operation and guiding hunts for a...

    ID ing two decoys

    Wondering if any of you could help with the id, aging, and valuations of a few decoys I just picked up. The first is a wooden decoy (no keel) with a black stamp for the Animal Trap Company. I'm just trying to figure out an approximate age of it and what kind of value it might have. Those decoys...

    Spring Turkey

    Well, yesterday was archery opener in SD for turkey. As Evenive posted before I've been out of town working in Minnesota about 9 hours away from my home and even though I would see my wife and kids in 4 days as they are coming to MN for Easter, a guy has priorities, and in the spring time, my...

    How to haul a ducker?

    Just curious what everyone normally uses for hauling their duckers. I had a quick trip home to SD to see the family and am now headed back to MN for work. Decided to take my first ducker back with me this trip. Not having my normal truck and just my daily beater I found some nice foam blocks...

    Delving into the world of Decoy Carving

    Well, I've decided to finally do it. I'm not busy enough as it is, so I figured what the heck. I've been pouring over things I could find on this website as well as YouTube videos, articles, and other forum posts. Just wondering if any of the artists of this website might lend me some helpful...

    Adanac

    I think most of you would agree here with all the artistry, antique boats, and hand carved decoys that we all enjoy the journey that waterfowl hunting is. It is now about the pile pictures you see online. I certainly am guilty of taking and posting those photos but they are but a trigger of the...

    Old member new again.

    Hey guys! Sure have missed you all. I apologize for my absence. Seems like the last post I had was spring turkey of 2019. Since that time it has been a whirlwind of activity. I did kill two more Merriams with my bow following that post. Then it was a whirlwind trip to Saskatchewan where in...

    SD Turkey Hunting

    First off, sorry to Anthony Coons for the hijack on his thread so I started my own..... So I love duck and goose hunting, but spring snow goose isn't my thing. I'd rather chase those big thunder chickens. It gets my blood pumping pretty good hearing those birds gobbling as they come to your...

    Canoe/Kayak/Ducker packing for river trip

    I LOVE waterfowl!!! But.......there comes a time between Saskatchewan and South Dakota where I love to chase deer, especially with my dad while we can still do it. I mostly chase whitetail, although I haven't shot a mule deer in over 15 years and I might try to stick one with my bow this year...

    Its Spring, and I don't like fishing.

    I know a lot of guys that love fishing but that's not me. Hear me out on the subject at hand. Fishing, I grew up fishing in the Big Horn mountains of Wyoming where we would throw worms on fly fishing rods and walk the streams. I've done a fair share of lake fishing with friends, ice fishing...

    Ducker identifications and other questions

    1. So I've searched online and from what I can tell it is a first model year boat, which makes it a 1947? 2. I'm a little perplexed about the motor mount whether or not that is an original piece? 3.There's about four layers of paint flaking off but quite a bit of aluminum on the bottom...
