    Re-powering an AA BroadBill

    Thanks Guys. I was convinced that going back to a 25 hp 2-stroke was the the right motor of the boat. A real advantage for the 4-stroke I appreciate is I can use the same gas in my larger boat and my generators. I was intrigued by the option of getting ~25 hp out of the 15 Suzuki. For most...

    Homer Heads

    I was on Facebook earlier today and came across a post of Tony Homers's. Looks like he's making decoy heads again using 3d printing - they look good. FB: Making Foam Decoys

    Re-powering an AA BroadBill

    I have a long thread on a rebuild of an AA Broadbill here: Advice on sneakbox - AA Broadbill or MLB Wigeon. Last year I was looking to re power the boat. I have a 15 hp 4-stroke fuel injected Suzuki. I'm generally happy with the motor, it is light and fuel efficient and with me and the dog...

    Fixing old Herters Decoys

    I guess another option is just to cut the eye offend pull off the head.

    Fixing old Herters Decoys

    Thanks Steve. These were hunted a lot in salt water and the screws are in rough shape.

    Fixing old Herters Decoys

    Thanks guys - that makes a lot of sense. With a wooden dowel inserted into the epoxy, you could get away with a shorter leg bolt too.

    Fixing old Herters Decoys

    I have about 3 dz old herters divers. They been well used and I'm thinking of patching them up and repainting. Most of the eye-bolts have rusted and a few heads are broken off at the base of the stem. I would like to replace the eye bolts (I'm calling them bolts, but they are leg screws) with...

    Long Island Waterfowling Traditions DeQuillfeldt Family

    I agree 100%. In Canada sink boxes are still legal. There are more primitive versions called "Tubs" in some places on the coast of Nova Scotia and there are still a lot of sink boxes in use on the Lac St. Pierre in Québec. I posted an about these boxes before, but I cannot find the link so I'm...

    Shell Drake “Redbreasted Mergansers”

    Well, I have to say something. When I was young we shot a lot of ducks and many were mergansers. We ate what we shot, but mergs were always at the bottom the pile. I did not know much about cooking then and most of our mergansers were eaten in what we called merganser pie. We cooked them up...
