    Speaking of Clothing...

    Chene Gear has a new waxed canvas/wool sweater out this year. I saw it in person at DUX, it is really nice, but they are proud of it. If I ever have to replace my old Cabela’s Windstopper pull over, the Chene might be a good candidate.

    August Workbench

    Decided to make a dove tote. Not necessary really, and certainly not worth the $65 Fowler Hide Supply charges. $13 for a roll of 3mm leather cord, $8 for bronze clip, leftover pvc decoy line crimps, and a non winning goose band raffle from a DU event and maybe an hour of time. Now I just need...

    Canada Goose Exhibit at BP/DU Waterfowlers Heritage Center

    Jason, you are correct the exhibit is all from the Peterson collection. The gentleman’s first name escapes me as well. DU has had multiple podcasts about it recently.

    Swan Hunting in South Dakota

    Has anybody swan hunted in SD? Our group, a buddy and I, drew NR waterfowl permits as well as swan permits this year. We figured if it was available to draw for we might as well put in for it since we already drew the waterfowl permit. Neither of us have hunted swans before. Any info is...

    Canada Goose Exhibit at BP/DU Waterfowlers Heritage Center

    While I was in Memphis for DUX Expo this past weekend I had a chance to sneak over to Bass Pro to check out the new Canada Goose exhibit. I was also fortunate enough to catch Katie Burke, the curator, for a guided tour, getting a ton of information about each decoy and carver. I was also able...

    Oarlock wood grain orientation

    Out of curiosity could marine grade composite dimensional lumber be considered an option for a feature of this nature? Has anybody explored using such materials in certain applications of small craft building? I know we considered using some for a transom replacement on my buddy's 18ft Lund...

    Indiana Sandhill Crane Survey

    That was the only negative I saw online, it sounded like, regardless of a lifetime license, you might have to pay for a permit. The survey didn't address what the process would be if you had a lifetime license. The Facebook discussions were all speculation regarding this situation. I think...

    Indiana Sandhill Crane Survey

    Did any of our Indiana members get a survey about possibly purchasing a Sandhill Crane permit? No season date projections were proposed; just a couple of hypothetical options. Should we get a season, at what price point would you be willing to purchase a permit? Random draw for permits. The...

    Avian Flu?

    We have seen several hundred Sandhill Cranes at our club and around the adjacent Kankakee Fish & Wildlife Area, here in in northern Indiana. Talking with the FWA property manager they have found ducks and geese as well.

    NDR: Cleaning Fish

    Carl, I solved this issue by cleaning fish with my wrong-handed cousin and me being right-handed. We each fillet the opposite side of each fish and it goes pretty quickly. Now the downside is we don't get to fish together very often, but when we do all the fillets look fantastic!! lol
