Should have snook though? At least they were there when my sister lived in Tampa ~20 years ago. Did I mention how much I love snook fishing, not that I have done much of it . . . . I also remember chasing a reds a bit to the south, down around Sanibel. Maybe a 2 hour drive?

Just curious, why WRC for the poling platform but mahogany for the deck? No matter what you used--looking great!

Looking great!

Have you got an 18' pole? I pole my MMB sculler with a canoe pole that is maybe 13'. Couldn't find a longer one. It's also shod with an iron shoe, which less than ideal on softer bottoms. Great in the canoe on fast rivers; OK on the sand flats chasing stripers, but I need something else for...

Gorgeous decoy, Perry! Didn't you used to hunt southern Maine out of a sailing sneakbox? I know there was somebody in the Kennebunk area who did. Not to make this site commercial, but if anyone wanted to buy one of your decoys, where might we find them?

Uh oh! If Maine follows suit, I will be divorced after the first duck season with Sunday hunting. It'll be worse if partridge and woodcock are open Sundays, too. Here, landowner resistance from the large timber land owners has been fierce, and not much passes the Legislature when they are...

You going to keep this down south, or bring it to Maine? It's a few years since I poked around Merrymeeting Bay on striper fishing/duck scouting/rail hunts, but September is a good time for all three, and this post has me looking at the tide chart in September. September 8-11 and 19-20 look...

Agree if both shooters are shooting in the same direction, I've hunted two hunters sitting over decoys from a sculler, although not a TBD. We set up back to back, with a clear understanding of where each of us could shoot.

I have new used Suzuki (2o hp, electric start) and new new Suzuki, 6 hp, pull start on the Sport Boat. Both have been flawless. Quiet, super efficient. They do seem to have a little less power than equivalent 2 strokes I've operated, but it's not like I care much about top-end speed in my two...

Had the same thought--that might be for an anchoring pole. I'm wondering if there is weight in the bow--or needs to be--to balance this boat like the well for a weight in the Joppa Flats sculler that Steve Sanford shared. Does anyone know if the Great Bay sculls needed weight forward to balance...

The Kennebec population has definitely expanded a lot since Edwards Dam was removed and restored access to what we think is 100% of historic habitat. There is some uncertainty about whether sturgeon passed Ticonic Falls, the list of the Lockwood Dam in Waterville 17 miles upstream. Edwards came...

Thanks, Greg. One sturgeon photo from the Kennebec. We have 2 species here, shortnose and Atlantic. The shortnose average 3-4 feet long as adults and are pretty impressive. The Atlantics are much larger--up to 14', some say--and commonly 6-8' fish can be seen. Both species come out of the...

Photos above were different fish on the same day from the GSB's maiden voyage in the salty waters of Middle Bay--and she proved to be a lucky vessel in both fresh and salt water, though perhaps a bit of a Jonah on duck trips. Also, her speed, range, carrying capacity and comfort on even...

My trusty old 14' aluminum with a 15 hp Yamaha two stroke saw significant issues with the transom (shot, in need of a full restoration), and the motor (damaged in an unfortunate unmarked rock event with an idiot (me) at the tiller and the end of the 2023 duck season. For the record, the call to...

I've loved these guys since they headlined the American Folk Festival in Bangor Maine. It was my third or fourth date with my wife. Not otherwise a big bluegrass fan, but these guys are just fantastic live.

Noted--as it was last spring. Still hoping you get Huntindave McCann in the loop--and make his emails to these bozos public! My guess would be most of these are SPAM message auto-replies and/or new users. And may I congratulate you for keeping the Spam we users see to a very bare minimum...
