Marc St Louis:
Yes a shotgun.  The teal was close enough for a bow but everything else was about 40 yrds away.  The mushroom is a Pholiota

I see his tracks and scrapes but I'm getting through the water and muck the beavers have created to the high ground on the other side on my 4wheeler so I'm making too much noise for him to stick around

Eric Krewson:
I lived in Stevenson Al for a number of years, the state had dewatering areas that they planted in grain and flooded, it was like being in Arkansas, tons of ducks. I was once a serious duck hunter, I hunted by myself and trained my own lab, it was a good time.

I started carving decoys when I was a duck hunter, when I found out I was crafty this led me to making bows and later flintlock rifles.

I made lot of decoys, very detailed ones but sold them all thinking I would make ducks forever. One day I burned out and never made another one, all I have left are a few so so ones.

Marc St Louis:
I used to be an intense duck hunter as well and would hunt them right up until all the lakes were frozen solid

Nice decoys.  At one time Wood Ducks were a restricted species for hunting and severely limited on how many you could shoot.  Now they are everywhere.  Good thing they are good to eat.  I took a male the other day, he was quite fat and should be good eating.

BrianS:
Nice work on the decoys

willie:
Is there a season on moose where you are?
