I'm so new I really do not know where to go to find the hunters of today that continue to Scull on a dying breed. So, I took a shot and landed back here.
What I would like to do is find the scullers of different parts of the US. See what they do and how they do it.
Myself a sculler for well over 60 years.
It is a dying way killing Ducks that the old timers started and Marketed from the east coast to the west coast.
Every Scull is different, and I would love to see some of these east coast scull and be able to chat hunting with some of these guys and how, why!
Sculling is an art that takes time to learn but no better way to limit out on ducks and geese. It is an art that is dying, and I hate to see her go.
There are so many hunters today that when you mention scull boats, they don't even have a clue of what I'm asking.
Along the west coast in many areas sculling was a way of life back in the day when dollars were to be made, and many fell into sculling to live their lively hood and continue to make sculling one of the most positive if not the most positive way to kill limits of ducks and geese.
It is not for the duck hunter who wants to sit over decoys and relax and drink coffee on cold winter days waiting for those flights of ducks to emerge from the open water to feed.
We as scullers are on the open water looking for the exact birds we want to kill for the day. It seems not realistic to say yes when I leave home, I will be home with a limit of nice fat green heads. We don't brag about those realistic seems it just a way of life we have learned and endured over a lot of time.
My scull is my life and has been for many, many decades and a way I live on the open water when chasing ducks and geese.
WE can sit back glass the birds we want to scull after and more times than not he is in the boat and chasing another bird.
Hear on thew west coat of OR we have a great variety of ducks everything from Mallard, Sprig, Widgeon, Gadwall, Green winged Teal, Bluebill, Ring necks, Ring bill. Canadian Honkers, Specs, a few others I won't list.
At this age of the game, I know when I leave what I want to shoot and where I will find them. Scullers in most cases hunt large bodies of open water when most duck and goose hunter don't venture to go.
Simply once the birds leave the fields or Clubs, they hit the open water to rest for the day. most of the bays and estuaries and river systems hold birds and certain times of the year many birds come to the coast and stay thru out the season.
I wish more young Duck hunters continued this tradition that started the early times of duck and goose hunting. It has been an art from a very early age, and I have met some very old and respected scullers in my life. Some that had the privilege of hunting those market days others who like me seen a way of duck hunting in a positive way.
Starting I quit many times and said this is just too hard to figure out. But like most things we push on and finally it starts to come together. LOL just getting the boat to go in a foreword direction. Then learning all that comes with it.
Those that know sculling know exactly what I'm saying and what I mean while other who know nothing about sculling shut it off. This is why I write about the art that anyone who wants to kill ducks and geese and in a manner that only your able to do and kill those big green heads on a Dailey basis.
I hope to hear from scullers around the US and hope I wrote this in the right place and a very positive way.
Happy Thanks Day to all. Be safe good luck hunting 2024.
