Just checked the DEC website and it looks like the western zone season is opening on 10/21 this year not the 14th as stated above. Youth days are correct though.

Would help to know where the sale is taking place. Just saying.

You'll find Cisco has a real nice attachment for versa-trac.

Did you guy's get to keep it or was it turned over to the captain?

And a winning prize of 100K. Don't see that on the south shore.

You'll have a hard time finding what your asking for. Bit the bullet and join a club. You may be surprised what other interests you'll gain.

Consider the manual inflate as auto inflate may go off if they get wet just riding in the boat. Don't ask why I know.

Glad you got it back Jim. Now for the weather to warm up a bit. The creek is almost frozen over now. May be a while. Guy

Retired art teacher Jim Wickham? Always looking for wood duck feathers?

Took 2 kids, 12 and 15, to Tonawanda they got 1 widgon and a goose and that was it. Good number of folks out. More pep's than ducks. Was slow but a beautiful morning. Real lack of water though. Doesn't look good for the rest of the season without some real serious rain.

Those of you taking the kids out Saturday good luck. Not much water though.

And now the work starts. Congrad's on a good shoot.

News reports said there was 5-6 of those on Monday. Lucky to get a rare look at one of those.

I mean don't cheap out.

Don't forget they need to be balanced also. Don't chesp out.

There is a 2 part putty that molds to the ear canal that is available at many shooter supply houses. Fits your ears like no other. Works great and is reusable for years. Cost like 11-12 bucks. can't be beat.

Looks like an immuture drake. Has the mallard bill, right wing colors and greenhead starting. Mallard.  

Check out the Jolly release's from Cuddeback Machine. They are like 25.00 for 6. I find them to be the most user friendly and very adjustable  www.cuddebackmachining.com  They are in Hilton.

Your using the boards backwards if used as you describe. Left and right as you face forward not backward. That's why the eyebolt is in the lower half of the board. 

I also took a couple of 13yr olds out Saturday with a buddy. We've been doing it for 5-6 years now with kids til they age out.  Went to Tonawanda and they got 4-woodies.  Was a drizzly mess most of the morning but a good time was had by all. One of the kids had hunted deer and hogs before(came up from Florida) and said you know I like this better than deer hunting. You can socialize. I encourage everyone to look for these opportunity's to get a kid out to at least see if this is for them. I liked it more than they did.

Sorry the price was too well hidden.

No one has asked how much yet. How much?

Yep

Nice job plucking that bird. Most would have just breasted him out.

Another successful day of sampling. Today our count was 73 walleye on one run, bringing our total to 191 walleye. I left in the middle of the work up of the fish so I don’t have new numbers on males and females. We will be dispatching 30 Fish tomorrow to send off to a lab in Maine for disease testing, do an Electrofishing run, and begin spawning tomorrow afternoon. I will post numbers of eggs tomorrow night.

Looks like these fish are killed to get the eggs and sperm. They look to be all belly up. Who gets to eat them?
