I have a 1930/1940 cedar marsh box made of cedar plank. It was from the Frankenback family on long island. They were left in the creek tied to trees and sat in the marsh to shoot out of. They sat on the ground, not floated, most were towed to the spot for gunning.

Ace Hardware bucket trap. Put wire over the trap to keep squirrels away. Anti freeze and water

Dave makes a quality product. His boats and his bags [ have 7 bags ].

Like seeing these barn finds getting out and getting used.

I use marine ply. I trailer my southbay, so it doesn't sit in the water. I would ask others if it sits in the water all the time...

There was a old 3 or 5 on long island

Take yourself to a range and shoot some clays, you'll see if the 410 will work for you. If you have a 28 try that, you'll have a hard time locating ammo. When you see it, buy it. I like the 28 on nice days [ my clays gun ].

I'm not a fan of all the gadgets on shotguns. I shoot browning o/u and they come with hi viz front sight, my instructor took mine off. If you see the sight, your not seeing the bird correctly.

One of the guys i worked with made a metal frame for the boat and tied in netting. then tied iron grass to it. The frame was removed after the gunning season and hung in the garage for next season. The grass can be added to for the next season and the boat used for other play.

Take small bundles of grass and tie wrap or jute string to the webbing.

I shoot a 28ga when the weather is good. Ammo is the problem, buy it when you see it. Love shooting it sporting clays...

Think most like the rounded cockpit, as capt bob said a sign of quality.

Really like the group discussions here and all the helping hands.

You should try lessons. Do a father / son lessons, gives you a break and you can see what the instructor is trying to get foward. Having a friend teach may not be good unless they are really good. Also check out different instructors, I had four who were really good, learned deifferent things...

Love watching driven bird shoots over the pond. Beautiful SxS's being used like years ago. When I was younger, I would watch field trials here on Long Island. I got to work on a large private shooting preserve that did driven bird shoots and mallard shoots. I learned how to clean and service a...

Heat the clips on the bottom. It's hit and miss on tension.
