Made it to Cindy's Kitchen every Saturday in January, sometimes early, sometimes late depending on how the geese flew. She closes at 2 so don't dilly dally.

Chesapeake Bay we always seem to see more drakes

Participated the last three years so out for a while. The return info was very generic..."hen blue bill age unknown, Canada goose sex and age unknow".

Check Knutson's or Mack's Prairie Wings. I got one from Mack's several years ago. Have a 2011 catalog that shows one from a company called DJ Calls of Pekin Il. Haven't used that specific call. You're not going to call in the divers but just grab their attention to take a look like you would...

I've hunted around the Annapolis area three times in the last week and have only seen and shot butterballs. Have not seen a single bill yet. A buddy hunted Hooper's Island the week before Christmas and they only hunted the bay one morning the rest of the time was spent hunting the ponds and...

Brian, it sounds like you have a great opportunity to honor Barb every fall when you return to your goose field for your first hunt of the season by placing a new flag at her stone.

Let's try that attachment again.

I second that...sleds are cool. I made these scoters last fall but didn't get to float them this season. Looks like your brant sleds have gotten some use.

Thanks guys, some nice looking decoys. I think my first ones will be simple, utilitarian butterballs. They're not too picky what they decoy to so simple should work just fine. I'll post some pics when I'm done.

Does anyone have experience making decoys from old crabpot floats? I've seen a few and they look pretty straight forward to make. Looking for any tips before I try to make some.

Brian, where abouts in MD?
