German Shepard’s are very smart dogs, you can train them to do almost anything .I read about a duck hunter years ago who successfully used his Shepard as a retriever. He may or may not have a soft mouth so that could be a problem. Some dogs do not like a bird in their mouth due to all the...

When I taught hunter safety I had to take a test, was interviewed by DF&G, background check and was appointed by DF&G. When I taught it , it was at a range and I made all demonstrate safe handling of rifle, shotgun and handgun. They all had to show they could safely load and fire a weapon. The...

I was a hunter safety instructor many years ago before the online crap. Sorry I’m old school and think hunter safety should be taught in person in a class room setting but that’s a different discussion. When I hunt with someone new even if they are an experienced hunter I always give a little...

Great pictures, great memories. I’m a Northern Californian and I remember when there were wild pheasants all over the Sacramento valley. They were every where. I recall flushing a hundred plus pheasants in a few hours of hunting. Those glory days are gone. You just about never see a pheasant...

Excellent point Bigfin. Trump pardons one person whose prosecution was a travesty And the Dems and the media go crazy on him. Gruesome Newsom releases 8000 criminal prisoners who will wreak crime and havoc on the innocent public and that’s just fine, no problem , good job Gruesome. And don’t...

I personally don’t use floating motion decoys but I’m not saying they don’t work. Many of my hunting friends use them and swear by them. I’m just old school in a lot of ways but I’m usually a pretty successful duck hunter. I had the great fortune several years ago to hunt with a guy who had a...

Appears there are some advantages For those who are bald.

Late season can be the best of times or the worst of times shooting ducks. The best of times in that you often see lots of ducks . But by the end of season the ducks are wary. , they have been called a zillion times and they have been shot at another zillion Times. They are skittish and...

I’m not a fan of floating motion decoys and haven’t used the one you are asking about. I think the only time a floating motion decoy might be of benefit is in small ponds on windless bluebird days. If there is even a hint of breeze then your dekes will have some movement and that’s all you...

It really pisses me off when someone tells me I need anger management

Here’s an Inuit prayer that states the above in a different way. I have a copy of this framed hanging in my “man cave” I think over again my small adventures. My fears, Those small ones that seemed so big, For all the vital things I had to get and reach. And yet there is only one great thing...

That’s great news. At least I know if one of them robs me, car jacks me, murders me that most likely I’ll be dealing with a Covid free criminal. Of course how long will it take for them to contract the virus upon getting out and hanging with their lowlife scumbag friends and then passing it on...

I too can not think of an analogy for this stupidity. So releasing 8000 criminals will blunt the spread of Covid among the prison population but will obviously increase the spread among the general law abiding population. It will also increase the spread of crime. Yep makes perfect sense to me...

They make a huge difference, not only insulation wise with savings on heating and cooling but also outside noise reduction. Get at least 3 estimates from different companies. When you talk to these guys you’ll learn a lot and can then make an informed decision on what you want/need. Double...

First fish dog I’m not accusing you of anything, I understand you are throwing this our as food for thought. Just my personal opinion but I personally don’t use 3.5“ shells. Sounds like a cannon going off, don’t even want them in my blind. I started as a kid with 2.75” and still mostly use them...

Actually I like speed but heavy loads or more volume of shot and speed kills. I tend to agree with Aeon 3” #3 Hevi Metal will definitely reach out and kill em. I’m old fashioned and shoot mostly 2 3/4” shells. For for flooded rice puddler ducks I shoot Hevi Metal 2 3/4” #3 and occasionally #2...

He was a good and righteous man. He is a legend. Rest in peace Mr. Daniels.

Speed kills!

If Los Angeles and San Francisco would just fall into the ocean we’d have a shot at normalcy. But until that happens we’ll continue down the path of Marxism.

I’m completely sick of this crap. These people live in the best country in the history of earth And they don’t know it. They are demented, deranged, ignorant, filled with demonic hate and in many cases just plain stupid. They don’t realize that they are but pawns for the Marxist elite. And if...
