So you want to be a Waterfowler Hunter.......

Nice find Steve!


Beautiful cupped action video and some sound advice.

My 52nd year of hunting coming this season. I am one of those that still gets excited, hard to sleep etc. It is always an adventure!
 
Thanks for sharing...gets me excited for the season. I still can't sleep the night before any hunt rabbits, quail, it's all exciting.
 
AWSOME!!1 other then pond jumping this will be my first year hunting ducks. I just need to find me a mentor for so cal duck hunting. Ive got the decoys 4 doz, and getting waders and a small boat of some kind. I know what they mean about no post season. All year im getting ready for some kind of hunting.
 
It truly is a year round comittment for most of us.

This is my first summer of NOT doing endless amounts of work on decoys probably because I spent last October painting 30 doz full bodies

Pic of dekes prepped and painted

The footage near the end of the snow goose grind was pretty cool. Wish it would've been longer too....... :(

Cool decoy pics Stefan. Looks like the expandable foamers worked out for you. We have been pretty busy with the decoys this offseason. It should be a pretty interesting season for snows at wister.

Hey Brad,

We are really happy with the foam dekes, they had some unknown advantages that really worked out well for our lease. Their foam so you cant throw them around like plastic.

We drew the attention of a few guides who actually walked into our spread to check out the dekes
