Mark, Hey bud, how have you been? Ahh the spotlight saga. From my extensive field trials, by that I mean breaking everything that I use, I have found that no matter how much you spend or dont spend they all break the same. I started using the 1 million candle power $10 spotlight from...

I am with you Scott, I think its on its way, and its going to be hard and fast. I was hoping for a nice smooth cool down, but its not going to happen. I saw a flock of teal last night, happy to see them, but not good at the same time. We will prob get a week of some serious migrators then...

With the weather being so nice and the monday before the gun opener I would say you have a pretty good shot at having a low draw day. Staying local today, I have the sneaky plan that has potential. Shiawassee on Thurs and you better believe I will be chasing birds all weekend. If your ever...

Yep, what Dave said (nice work!)

I know the light twin is a 3hp, I have one but its the Duck Twin. The motor is a lawn boy 2 cylinder, they are super easy to get running. The cool thing about those motors is they are something like 35lbs total, and they fold in half. Originally they came with a case so people could put them...

Travis and Dave, Thanks for the insight guys. There are a lot of factors when it comes to choosing 1 week! I have a 17ft canoe that would be perfect for walking and paddling. That would be the easiest set up to tote along, and I have been using it for years so there is no learning needed...

I appreciate the response guys. Its funny that you mention fighting with the locals, thats the one thing that I was concerned about. Seems they are a little more passionate about public spots being owned down there. As far as exiting the country, I will save that for retirement, I still like...

Jay, I am pretty open to options. The best way that I can describe this whole situation is that I want to get a taste of different hunting than MI. Granted that I love running around in my own state and will continue to do so, I just want to experience a different aspect. I have been...

Geoff, Thanks, I hope that I can get some insight, that was a pretty cool of you to do, I appreciate it.

Well I have been lurking and quite for some time now and its time to start getting my stuff together. I just finished rebuilding a 1972 Honda 750 from the frame up, so now the boat is going back into the garage. I have been working on a new deck for the house, if anyone else is looking for a...

Mike, Is your canoe aluminum? If you have already answered that I apologize I must have missed it. If so I have the best removable motor bracket design known to man. Well maybe not that great, but it works. Cheaper than anything you can buy online and way more solid. Do you have access to...

We had a project to build a cap for a crane to pick up a water tank, had to use two propane torches (look like flame throwers) to keep the steel temp up. Came out to about 25 or 30 passes on each side, worked like a charm. Propane torch might be too much, but I bet a salamander aimed right at...

Cas, I love that little motor! its got a lot of push for its size and it just keeps on tickin! I will get rid of it when someone can pry it from my cold dead hands. Mike, Forgot to add that the motor has an internal tank that can get you quite a long way before having to...

Mike, I have a 17ft aluminum canoe. I started out with a trolling motor and it worked, but not that great. I had a huge battery that was a treat to load and unload, the wind would kick me around when it picked up, and if there was ice then I usually had the trolling motor pushing while I...

I am with Mark on this one. Maybe look into Corrections/Law enforcement. I have been a Deputy for three years and I love my job. Every day is a new challenge/adventure. I have dabbled in everything from auto sales to fabrication and I have found a career that keeps me sharp and gives me the...

Rutgers, Got your PM, I am excited! I think a good start would be good ole greenheads. We will get into those fancy ducks after I make sure they float after I am done. Thanks again!

After a four year stint in "higher education" and leaving with nothing to show for it but an extremely high tolerance to mass quantities of alcohol I decided to get my act together. I was a welder/fabricator for awhile and I loved the work, but it was really hard on the body and the field had...

I'm in for one. I have been waiting to get started and lack the start-up knowledge. This is exactly what I have been looking for, thanks for the great idea!

Mark, You have been a victim of a felony, Larceny from Vehicle (LFA) >$1000(thats what I totaled from your description of stolen items), and tack on another if a gun was stolen (Felony Firearms). Obviously contact the closest law enforcement agency and have a report filed asap. It is a...

Clint, Thanks! I may have to look up some of "dem big wurds", but I appreciate the clarification. Seems that the original concepts and ideals of waterfowling will stand through all the new concepts regardless of advertising and flash. Stick with what works!
