    Snow on the Gulf Coast

    The radar yesterday morning showed snow out in the Gulf of Mexico south to LA, AL & FL. Crazy. Dauphin Island got over 6", some places in downtown Mobile had 10", bottom photo is from my staff members house in Mobile. Hope those of you that are hunting get a good push of ducks to finish the season!

    NDR: Cleaning Fish

    So why is it that the first fillet on panfish comes off like a fishmonger with 50 years experience was holding the knife but the second side come off like some cave man cut it off with a dull rock? Asking for a friend who had to fillet 56 saltwater panfish this morning. 😳

    Electric Outboard

    Found this interesting. Pretty good performance for a cheap motor with a relatively low amp hour battery. Definitely better than a standard TM if you are fishing lakes with no gas engine restrictions.

    Scoters on Mississippi Sound

    Was down on Mississippi Sound today doing work for my former agency. Surprisingly did not see a single redhead, scaup or buffy. But did see 3 scoters. Which I assume were white wings.

    Random Plywood Question

    Beginning to dream again/do some long term planning about building a boat: Do any of the suppliers still make 4'x12' plywood? I did a search and couldn't find any.

    Puddle Duck Genetics & Genus Restructuring

    If you followed along the Balsa thread on the Carvers Corner, and previous other Forum threads, you know how much fun the confusion between common names vs. scientific names can be. Even better is the debates between lumpers and splitters in the wildlife biologists community. I tended to be a...

    NDR- Fishing Rod Guide Replacement

    Anyone here ever replace a guide (not tip) on a fishing rod? How hard is it? I know have three old rods that I love but each have a broken guide. Thinking about spending $20 to get a guide kit off Amazon, they come with guides, thread and glue. Thanks!

    Spring Break Trip

    Took a little trip to Chassahowitzka Campground and paddles the springs and rivers. Did a lot of paddling, a little fishing, watched some manatees and thought about how this shallow eel grass & wigeon grass filled river must have teemed with scaup and redheads in winter before it became over-run...

    Trolling Motor Battery Setup Question

    If I have two deep cycle AGM batteries @ XX AH each running a trolling motor, which setup gives me longer overall run time: 1. Wire them up to run in parallel, with a 60amp circuit breaker/switch to isolate the TM from the batteries when not in use. 2. Install a 3 position switch (1, Off, 2)...

    Minn Kota TM Prop Nut

    Broke the sheer pin on my Minn Kota Endure 50 I soaked the prop nut with penetrating oil but it will not break free. Don’t want to strip the slot at the end, seems like they could engineer that better. Before I start cutting off the prop, any advice?
