Pictures of my BBSB...

Sorry it took a long time, but I just had surgery on my wisdom teeth and have been reading Worth Mathewson's Old Wildfowling Tales in my free time and decided to uncover my Classic BBSB and show and tell a bit.


All the corkers on the back are carved by me, except a black corker from a fellow WA hunter. The model 12 was a gift from my grandpa to me which might see one or two fresh water hunts a season (if I can afford bismuth!)

Still have some work to do on my sneakbox like painting the decoy racks, taking off the plywood floorboard and replacing it with a removable slat floor, saving my pennies to try and get a spray dodger, and still carving in my off time. I anxiously count down the days till opener, and I thank God for giving me such a great hobby, and a site full of generous and sincere people who love this sport just as much as I do...

Just AWSOME! How little (if at all!) we've improved upon those classic tools of the trade. Looks like a great day waiting to happen.

Great picture (and boat) Zach!

Keep us posted on your progress, and let me know if you need anything.

Take care,
 
Zach.

Zach,
That rig has me slobbering all over my keyboard. I bet you can't wait to hunt over them.
