Bob - Any built in dry storage for sticks? Also, in case she's wondering, technically, that does not qualify as a boat...

You are showing your true colors...

 

[Pat Gregory]

Jode - Love the pose! Nice work! Pat

Debbi is getting a lot more done than me.

Bob~

Those feathers down the neck are just sublime! Truly creative and very well-executed - as always!

All the best,

SJSF

 

[Dave Speer]

Dennis, those paddles are real nice to look at.

November seems to be a productive month. Its hard to believe the talent on this site.

 

[Mike Frechette]

Here's a ringer I just finished. All basswood and acrylics.

Even though I SHOULD be filling decoy orders - duckboat work has been taking all my time of late - I did repair and re-paint this LLBean Canada. And, seeing all of the great work this month, I had to jump on the bandwagon.

I will be posting a Tutorial when I have the time - mostly because of numerous requests for this species with my usual Home Depot/Behr's paint approach to gunners.

This is the straight gunning paint job - the "half-gunshot away" style that is all anyone needs. I will be adding some feather edgings for those who prefer to go the extra yard on their own rigs.

All the best,

SJS

After a short period of cooler weather, we were back in the 60's for the last week of the early Tri-State splits. Seasons will go out this weekend and return around Thanksgiving to run through the end of January.

Wednesday was overcast so I went anyway....it beat raking leaves ;-)

Took some decoy pics and explored some new backwaters to hunt.
