Took the girls (including wife) out for closing day. I've been making noise about needing to upgrade from the DW15 to something more spacious now that Rose is 12 (legal age) and Charlotte is 11. After a long, slow morning, I heard the famous words come out of Andrea's mouth "Nick, now that we're...

Looking for a quality taxidermist in New England. I formerly used Brian Yacino, who recently had a hand injury and is retiring after 41 years with the pending surgery. I always liked Brian, used him for 15 years. Every birds was lifelike and not half asleep like the other folks I see around...

Rose's first hunt (12yo). She managed to pick one off at about 55 yards with bismuth 4s. Used her brand new SX4 compact, never fired it before. I heard her ask "is this going to hurt?" And then I see the goose flop. When I asked her later, she said she didn't even notice she fired. Slow for the...

The whole family got our trapping licenses this year, and since you have to be 12 to hunt in CT, but there's no minimum age for trapping (basically 10 to get the license), we took took the opportunity to get the girls out in the field doing something new for all of us. Rose will be 12 during...

Wondering if anyone has a sea duck silhouette I can copy? Preferably not printing from a computer onto paper. For example, I pay you to ship one silo off your sled to me, I trace it, and mail it back. Wife is running for local election, have many of the corrugated plastic board I'd like to turn...

hesitant to post this, but there's a 17ALF in RI. Guy wants 15k. It needs a lot of work. If someone wants a project maybe they can chisel him to a price that is (what I feel) reflective of the actual condition of the vessel.

The farmers who lease the field I hunt have switched half the acreage (30 total) over to Sudan grass for cattle. With ever warming winters the nephew thinks this is a better idea (the aunt thinks they need to stay corn). Anyways, how will this affect the hunting? Deer, ducks, geese? Anyone hunt...

Thinking about selling my 2002 Duckwrangler 15. Motor is a 99 Suzuki DF40 with 150 hours. Oil, gear oil, impeller changed annual. New rectifier installed last year. 2002 load rite trailer, LED lights on poles. New blind made in 2020 (with removable lid), new motor cover in 2021. Has a 2020...

Made a boatload of braunschweiger (36lbs) this year from the hearts, livers, and gizzards of the season's catch. Should keep the kids fed with sandwich meat for 15 weeks in the slices. Another 22lbs in smaller links for the various outings we embark on during the off season. Happy to share the...

I have 2 dozen Homer geese, and man for the life of me I always run into a situation where they don't right themselves. It's usually only one or two in the spread. Just curious if anyone has any tricks or tips as to how to correct this? They're all single strung. The weights are in them. It's...

Obtained this decoy from my wife's deceased uncle today

Curious if the goose gurus are here. Local biologist says any bill under 38mm (1.496") is a cackler here in CT. Curious as to your thoughts on subspecies. Every time I have hit this goose field since late November it has resulted in this subspecies. Early season was the true long necked resident...

I was gifted a free 1985 evinrude 4hp last summer. My father and I took it apart and put it back together (pro-tip, don't remove the screw on the top with an exclamation point next to it). I took it out on Monday on the radisson that Mike Asid swapped with me for some smoking wood. Worked so-so...

Tore my right bicep (primary arm) off last December. Got it reattached but can't draw a compound bow. Was hoping someone may find a use for it. Crossbow only for me now. Includes 32 arrows (some cut to my draw length) and mechanical release. Draw weight 50-70lbs. Length 25-30" $250...
