    Swan decoy floaters?

    Really nice. Much more "wildlife art" type decoy than mine. My wood working skills are less than my mechanical skills (which aren't that much either) but my attempts at removable head/neck are done by using Al tubing that is a slip fit between sizes...actually designed for collapsible radio...

    Swan decoy floaters?

    Beautiful. I'd say nicer than any I've made. Ive had trouble getting light weight enough material so they float as nice as yours. I use Western Red Cedar for my bottom board and various white woods for the head and neck. Keeping my head and neck more silo style than yours and they still set...

    Swan decoy floaters?

    I've hunted some of mine in past years. Trouble is they are really popular with friends and relatives so I keep giving them away and making more. ;-). Some now get removable head/neck with the idea they'd be easier to transport but I have t hunted them yet.

    Swan decoy floaters?

    HDave I had the suck duck type before I made a wire/canvas rig. They worked fine except in high (really high!) wind where they (all- plastoids and canvas) tipped over. I'm talking big wind in flat country ..say 30 with gusts higher. But to your Q killed birds over 3-6 plastoids with 6-8 silos...

    Account upgrade and/or renewal.

    Eric I received a notification on Feb 1 that my support had expired and I was able to use PayPal and send my $$ to the site. As of Feb 3 both PayPal and my bank show that the funds were delivered to Duck Boats. Last time I looked my status had not been upgraded to my donation level. That's not...

    Last Week of the Season: Who's Hunting?

    I had not hunted since Jan 2018 but a couple of friends hosted my son and I (we are both Vets) out for the youth, active duty mil or Vets hunt yesterday. Was a great day. In the last hunt for me in 2018 I had two Cans in my bag. First two birds for me yesterday were 2 Cans...not a double. We...

    Account upgrade and/or renewal.

    Eric I can find a straight "donation" spot and I can find my account upgrade spot but I don't see how to maintain my currant level of support which expires on 2/1. Do I have to wait until it expires to renew at my present level? Also is PayPal still accepted as payment?

    Arkansas Opener Video from Public Land

    Beyond words....almost. I've not been able to watch the whole thing even though I've tried several times but I'd say I guess to each his own. Some of it is familiar.. ducks, boats, decoys, dogs, guns but .... not for me.

    AL DCNR Hard Stance - Opinions Sought

    Of course he deserves an allowance. He should be on orders I'd think. By sending in a copy of the orders he should be allowed an exception to the cut off date. My only other thought is if after his forfeiture the permit might have already been awarded to another hunter? If so there might be...

    What's on your workbench? July

    Very nice Don. Hot up here also. Weather has mostly stopped my shop work for weeks and my veg garden is failing again. The garden used to be fun and the goodies were a plus. Now it's work and still fails. I've either lost my green thumb or ? Anyway, nice birds.
