My huntn partners and i have spent several weeks getn ready.building several duck blinds and painting duck boats. What is everone else doin to get ready
-
I just whacked the cat tails down at my duck blind. Luckily it was not too overgrown. I am also thinking about getting some more decoys :chuckle:
-
The oldlady says im on a decoy freeze she thinks the fifteen dozen or so that i have is enough :bash: she doesnt understand u can never have enough

:yike: 15 dozen. You must have plenty of hunting buddies to help you put that many out, and then pack them back up. I guess thats what you train the dog to do :chuckle: Can your dog wind up the lines also :dunno: :chuckle:
-
Usually I am ahead of the game, but this is the first year that I have been absolutely buried the past few months and haven't even had time to think about it too much at this time. Maybe next month.
-
Dont use them all at the same time i have a couple spots i leave decos so we dont have to pack them and i wish my dogs would start pullin there weight and pick up decoys :chuckle:
-
just put in a new pit, and changes the boat lower unit oil, ready and waiting
-
Any pics of ur new pit?
-
Looking for a place to live, getting my stuff all packed and ready to move, getting up there, unpacking, then its GO time!
-
This is the time of the year when I start getting excited again!
I start watching tons of duck hunting videos, and I've started bringing my duck calls to work!
Sorry ladies, a man's gotta practice ;o)
-
Cleaning Snow goose decoys getting theme ready to paint .
-
Got the calls in the work van today headin out for the weekend to work on duck blinds and mow feilds im getn stoked
-
Got new waders, another dozen decoys, new jacket, and every weekend open for hunting.
-
Talk about the dog pulling his weight, I hook my dog to the decoy cart and he pulls and I just steer.
-
I went for a run to get in shape, and I saw some woodies in a pond :IBCOOL:
-
picked up 3 dz goose shells and cleaned them up, re-vamped my 14' jon boat and finishing up the flooring this week, pulled out the sneak boat and cleaned it up...touched up the paint job on it....calls already in the truck and did a lil scouting last weekend. now to figure out what to do for early goose since it's right in the middle of early archery :dunno: not to mention we haven't ever done early goose...got the itch tho.

Put my 12'x6' dog kennel back together in preperation for the pup coming come on the 12th!
-
I'm repainting my kayak and patching up my buddies homemade boat. Adding grass and camo to both. Double checking to make sure the dekes are good and clean, and practicing my calling whenever I'm driving and the wife isn't in the x.
-
Finally finished the last blind we r all ready for season
Rebuilt this blind before camo and after
-
Well the old decoys are all re-rigged and the new ones are rigged. My shell bag has been packed and re-packed. The guns are cleaned and oiled and ready to go. Will be checking the blinds this weekend to check on last minute brushing and stuff. Put in 3,500 sporting clays targets this year with one month to go; I might be ready :dunno:
-
Last Saturday I picked up a little sneak boat from another member. then today I watch a duck hunting show and I think the fever has hit me.
-
I made a snow sled into a decoy trailer thing :chuckle: so I can pull all of my extra decoys in my kayak. I spray-painted it put swimming noodles on the side of it for stability.

Ok here it is. It is like a yacht for decoys :chuckle:
-
Brilliant idea. How well does it slide across land? I know that isn't the intended purpose but I may do something similar and then glass it in and resin the crap out of it.
-
It did great sliding across land. I even convinced my dog to hop in, and it towed her around :chuckle: I think that I am going to build the sides up on it so it can hold more decoys. Always need more decoys :chuckle:
-
I like it .how well does it float with weight in it
-
I can fit 4 flaoter Canada decoys, and 4 mallards in it, and it floats them fine (and that was before I put the noodles on the side). BUT, when I was about 4 years old (way before I put the noodles on the side :chuckle: ),
I put it in a pool, jumped in it, and it sank :chuckle:
