I've been lurking for years on this site, and really enjoy reading about the projects and ideas that this group of people share. I have always been "challenged" in my calling ability. This fall, I decided it's time to for me to learn a good feeding chuckle and hen squeal. I have not found a call...

I made mine with casters that flip up. I can use it to move stuff around, or have it sitting rock solid on the floor.

I've used a smaller block plane. :-)

We have 20+ inches of ice on the inland lakes around here. :-)

I was interested in the round bottom decoys, not something I see in any of my decoys. I suppose they would bob around more and give some flash to the spread. Another really cool thing is they had a room where volunteers would make boat models or carve decoys. I missed getting a picture off...

I know some of the guys here would enjoy seeing some of the decoys on display at the Museum. Enjoy!

I read a book titled "Outlaw Gunner" on the drive back. It tells the story of these guys, known as the Watermen, back at the time of Market Hunting. The stories of paddling around the Bay in a 14 foot boat at night, in the cold, locating flocks of birds by sound, using a kerosene lamp on the...

Here are some shots from our recent trip to Maryland. I really enjoyed seeing some of the old duck boats, decoys, and guns used over the years. Here are the best pics I took of the duck boats. Enjoy!

Forgive my picture ineptitude...

Size test-stay tuned...

Yeh! We are pulling out tomorrow headed east. On the agenda is: eating some blue crab with the assistance of a big mallet(sounds like a lot of fun), some time with friends, shopping at a beading store (for the Mrs.), and a trip to St. Michaels (for me.) Looking forward to a great trip, and...

Tim: I bought an express in 2001 and have used it ever since. I had problems with the finish not holding up, but a can of spray paint fixes it every year. It's kind of fun to change colors and patterns. a few years ago I went to a Supernova, just for the adjustability of the stock. No regrets...

Good work Scott! I've been in the game area at Wigwam, pretty cool place. You're making me jealous!

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the comments-positive and negative. Here is a bit more on my gun quest. This year I've been getting serious about getting an automatic to replace my Super Nova. I'm searching for a used gun that feels good, will take 3 1/2 inch shells, and is dependable...

Does anyone know if the Winchester Super X2 is a dependable gun? Thanks, Scott in Leslie, MI

Thanks a ton guys! This will be our third visit to the area. The first was to do the Capitol tourist scene (very fun). The last was to visit some freinds and carve pumpkins with their kids. This time I'm hoping to get to some of the historic hunting stuff I've read about. The crab cakes and...

We are planning a trip to Baltimore and D.C. to visit friends and to hit a few more of the attractions in D.C. We have the D.C. scene covered, I was wondering if there was a good place on the Chesepeake to visit, or maybe a shrine to sneak boxes in this area I could drag my wife to. Thanks...

Hey Greg-I hunt Shiawassee pretty often. I paddle in and hunt the singles areas. I got ahold of a 14' sportspal a few years back. I really like it for shia. I bought a canoe cover with openings for it, and it works pretty well. The cover hides me, my junk, and keeps the wind off when the...
