    Notre Dame cathedral fire-NDR

    The timing of this fire at the start of Holy Week make a person wonder why it happened now. A sad day indeed but someone on high must have a larger plan.

    Canoe/Kayak/Ducker packing for river trip

    For paddling a stream like that I would go with a hand laid fiberglass, royalex or T-Formex canoe 16 or 17 in length. Shorter than 16 feet usually isn't as stable as the longer length and you can haul more with the longer length. Fiberglass canoes can slide over rocks easier where aluminum...

    DW cover project.

    When repairing fiberglass tanks at work the contractors use a angle grinder with a 4.5" sanding pads to remove the bad layers of fiberglass that had de-laminated to get to a solid base layer before making the repair. If you have some de-lamination due to freeze/thaw remove the de-laminated...

    Breathable Waders with Insulated Uppers

    I'm with the breathable waders group. Bought a pair of Simms Guide 11 years ago and still using them. Use to go through a pair of waders every 1-2 years between fishing and duck hunting. Found out about Simms and they out wear most waders out there. Had some seepage over the years and just...

    Pick my next boat

    Jarod, I agree with others that the Hoefgen duck boat is a great skiff. I have used mine as a layout in some rough water and stay dried. If you search hard, there is a fiberglass Hoefgen for sale out there.

    Snowshoe Hare--shotgun suggestions

    I'm surprised that no one mentioned a .22, like a Ruger 10/22. Several year's back that's all we carried were 10/22's when hunting rabbits, including snowshoe s. We had a beagle that would go all day long, it was a lot of fun. BTW carry 2 clips and a pocket full of shells.

    NDR-I Need a Truck

    Crew cab with a standard bed, by standard bed do you mean 8 foot? At work we have a Chevy 2500 crew cab with a 8 foot bed and that baby is long. Need two parking spaces to park it. A 6.5 foot bed with a crew cab F150 has a 139" wheel base and is easier getting around town. I just purchased a...

    Hunting in Germany...

    You might have a better chance at hunting in Sweden. I have heard that a number of Germans do hunt in Sweden. Roe deer hunting is poplar in southern Sweden.

    Decoy set up and election prediction

    Politicians and Decoys do have a lot in common, both don't have any brains. Right now there are two long lines, one line the heads are facing to the left the other they are facing to the right. The problem is they are barely anchored on just one end and they are at the head of a huge waterfall.

    Something to think about between flights

    Since last year I just run high test gas, 91 octane, that supposed to be ethanol free. I just get Shell 91 octane. Heard other's still have ethanol in their premium gas. Since switching over I haven't been having any problems and all my 2 cycle motors have been running better. Can leave it sit...

    Hoefgen Duck Boat question

    S Lewis When open water hunting with the Hoefgen Duck boat I usually anchor on a sandbar in about 3 feet of water with a 50 foot anchor rope. My Hoefgen doesn't have the handle on the end, it just has an eyebolt in the very end of the skiff.

    Hoefgen Duck Boat question

    There was a Hoefgen Duck boat for sale on the UP Craigslist last week but someone must have bought it because it gone now. Was able to purchase a used one about 4 years ago for $400. The Hoefgen duck boat has great stability and it can handle ruff water. I use mine as a layout boat and...
