long time Bass Barner just hopped over here...pretty cool...

Anyone besides me getting stoked about the upcoming duck season????I have been out one day every week for the last 4 weeks scouting....im likin what im seein! My dogs are in great hunting shape...im def not lol....

Wife gave me the green light to buy a duck boat...I plan to park it next to my 23' CC ...I def married the right women. I shot a few geese so far but im really more of a duck/upland hunter....not into the field thing.

Havent found my perfect boat yet....but I need to because Cabelas is having there WaterFowl weekend coming up and I prob will need to buy more gear for the boat lol.....

what kind of boat are you lookin for? I have a sneak box--10' Wrangler Duck Invader with a 9.9 HONDA 4 stroke for sale. Both are 2006.
shoot me an email if interested. $4000.00

I would look for a 16' Duck Wrangler. I bought one last year and it has been great. We hunt with myself, my partner in the boat, his son and my dog. Along with all the gear, this boat has been great as a perfect boat for rivers, creeks and the bay. You can't put in some places where a sneakbox may go, but we have been really happy with it.

Pa Duck opens 10/11 closes 10/18 than opens back up in Nov....BUT NJ North zone opens 10/11 and stays open till 11/1, South doesnt open till 10/18.....I have both licenses and will be mixing and matching. I also made arrangements for a rig..I pick it up in Maine in 2 weeks...taking the wife for a weekend getaway and pick up the rig....

Blackduck - Im a big fan of SJ...theres some GW teal down there with my name on em :thup:

Mudduck - Its Cabelas scissor blind with Avery marsh grass and windblocker. Its a 14' rig with 2004 Honda 15hp 4stroke (he says about 35 hours). The guy has just about everything camo-clad covered with shadow grass and the boat is fully loaded with gear and nice cushy camo seats, trailer even has LED lights all around. Im picking it up in Maine and taking the wife to a Bed and breakfast for the weekend while im there...kill 2 birds with one shell :shoot: Check out the other pic below! Oh..and im getting it for $2,800

Duckbill- Did ya kill anything? I took 3 geese 2 weeks back and I made this new marinade, its was the best goose I ever ate...yummmm!

Cannot Wait!!! First season opens Oct. 24 in DE. Will be reeding blinds, covering pits the next few weekends, and a trip to cabelas for a few more decoys might be necessary.
