But what a great hunt. Right off the bat we were greeted by a yellow rat snake, I was happy it wasn't...

    Black Belly Whistler's

    Although a normal occurrence around here, these ducks are really building a giant size flock. They literally walk down the road like chickens, going from one bird feeder to the next. Nothing to see 150 in the yards. About mid January there will be thousands within a 1 mile radius. Not a easy...

    Had a pretty good 1st week in ND. Temps were between 80 and 86. Shot mostly local birds but had a good cast and blast, with walleye and teal bites. Just a few pics.

    The Past Season

    Well, have the grandchildren this weekend, they wanted to crappie fish, but were rained out Saturday. The wind switched out of the north and brought a front through. Woke them up this morning, "to cold pop". That was from the 5 year old. The 16 year old never raised her head. But I guess 55...

    Layout boats.

    Well I decided to expand my hunting opportunities. I'm starting to research layout boats. Has anyone one used the Banks pumpkinseed? I've been researching layout boats and I'm concerned with weight and stability. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

    The Trip

    Well, the adventure begins all geared up to hunt redheads in the panhandle. The "word" is redheads are in with a few blue Bill's mixed in. Oh and of course the dreaded buffleheads. Which my hunting buddies love to shoot. I prefer not to. Last year we brought the 18 ft. gatortrax but were blown...

    Early Season Goose Hunt

    Well a friend and I did a easy early season hunt this morning. Only shot 2, but it was enjoying. Not to many geese around right now, but the amount of ducks was unbelievable. Had wood ducks landing in the field. Huck was full bore this morning, (like every morning) he really loves it.

    Something to think about/NDR

    So, I spend alot of time on Lake Okeechobee in a gator trax boat with a mud motor. I was coming in from crappie fishing when I noticed a large dead gator floating in about a foot of water.

    New Retriever

    Had a great time yesterday hunting ducks in a cow pasture. A few of the cows visited the blind, some even ate it. Then one decided to lay down. The best part was when we knocked a duck down they would run to it.
