total disaster

here are a few fish I have managed to land so far this season no real big ones but some have been worth a pic LOL

I would say a nice med/light action rod I am not too sure on what combo set but i would suggest shimano ....I have a bunch of their gear and haven't been let down yet...me and Alisha have been talking about rods and reels for long time as I am used to fishing smallmouth and her trout and she has just got a cabelas med/light rod and she loves that as far as I know

I text alot me and Alisha text to keep in touch with her in WV and me here in NS its hard to just call all the time or to get online and chat... we send each other around 1000 a month or more just letting each other know whats going on...why I am hunting I will text her too to let me know how I doing and that i am ok (I hunt seaducks from a boat alone) I think text is a great thing for us but if i could call her without paying soo much I would no question but as it is now its the way to go for us

I try to keep my spinners dry I dont dry them off all time tho and i tho them back in box and even some i have never used seem to rust easy I am thinking on a new box witch hangs the spinners? or do I need to do something little diffrenent I just tired of buying new spinners at 4-5 bucks a pop:confused:

or so we class it at our club LOL this pic was taken after I shot a 299/300 and the one bullseye I miss was sitting :mad: oh well it was a bad flinch ...I have also gone 184 metal animal targets standing before a miss and the miss was I lost focous as I taking sight a guy asked me a question LOL ya I know poor excuse LOL

monday morning I got a call 5 am saying my hunting buddy wouldn't be able to make it as he was calling from the boat and going lobstering ....so what do you do ? you are all set and ready to go and no parnter .... well come daylight I started calling around everyone was busy or out lobstering and then I called one guy said sure he had some things to do then he would go with me ...I think it was like 10 am when we got set up and sunk the box downa dn got ready ....there wasn't many ducks around in this area but there was enuff to shoot LOL I had a male toll right in to me and shot it and ened up loosing it as buddy ant used to seaducking and there was a 4-5 knot tide just behind me next a male came stright on and I killed it dead and drifted back to the box and I ened up taking one more hen so i only got 2 to bring home but MAN WAS I PROUD!!!!!!! this sink box works soo well and I am pleases with it and way it handles ....it sticks alittle high right now but that has to do with the weight I had on top of it but then I took rock weed and put on top of that to make it look like a big rock ...I designed and made it all myself and its great feeling to have something you make work here I am standing up holding my 2 eiders ....sorry for dark pics my buddy wasn't used to my camra here I am sitting down

I am not in the Christmas mood either I just can't feel happy knowing I have to spend it apart from Alisha the stress of a long distence relationship really hits home on any holiday

a plain ticket to West Virgina or for Alisha to surpise me and show up here for christmas but I wont hold my breath for it do to our work:( ...other then that I would like I new pair of canon binoculars and a good pair of mittins LOL

hmm no one seems to like the taste ...must be the food they eat as once they get to the salt water alot of people want me to shoot them for them to eat as they say they want tthem more then other ducks

I work as a lobster fisherman and i have the cold metal gear and thats all I wear under my oilgear I find I sweat and it huals it away keeping me dry all day and it keeps me warm when i am not working I will be getting more no matter the price !! to be comfy while working is huge plus for a fisherman

tell the story about dad getting a ride when a lobster trap cought him and you grabed him

I have what you could call a boat LOL it total displacement is 16.24 feet I want to sink it down with weight untill it almost sinks itself ....I have made a sink box ( duck boat)

I was 12 or 13 whenyou showed me LOL I am 22 now and it never fails LOL

I laughed and never dreamed it would work but to this day lewis I think of you when ever I see a knife upside down its really freaky how that works

I have made a sink box and was wondering how I go about figureing out how much weight I need to sink it down ....I have 16.24 sq feet so how much weight do i need to sink it ?? hope I never confused anyone LOL

ya really the weather is not looking good ....ya I know bout the balloon lol and yes we had to take the tale gate off and I dont like it its not safe IMO

well Lewis don't plan on ging out as its been delayed do to weather as of 6 pm tonight there is a meeting at 7 am to decide whats taking place here are 375 traps on our boat ready to go

I have the cold gear long undies along with the cold gear hooded sweater and I have the metal cold gear I love it soo far this is frist time I have tried the cold gear....it keeps me warm and its light and I fine its nice cause you can stay warm and not feel bulky

I think I am gonna have Alisha pick up a set of the midlands for me they seem to be the best out there from what I have read online on diffrenent sites....I wonder if I need a license in Canada to use them??

can you get very good distance with the Midlands??? and how clear are they ?

got a cell phone I want to be able to talk to the guys in the layout boats

I do alot of boat duck hunting and wondering what you guys think I should get to keep in touch when we use our lay outs. I am just wondering what i should buy I have a set of 2 way radios but they dont put out like they should I was thinking on a cupple hand held VHFs but were I live in a big time fishing area they VHF is used by alot and I not want everyone listening in and I have no clue how good a hand held CB is ??? just wondering what experencies you guys have had with these??

since Alisha has been up here this fall we have had some long days in the boat but we have managed our limits with not much trouble except for our first hunt which we only bagged 4 eiders...Alisha was also able to bag a nice drake eider to mount which she is undecided on what pose to get done...its soo much fun to see her smile when she knocks one down I think I need lessons from her LOL she is pretty good for someone who has only ever been on 7 duck hunts in her life

all we did to get ready was tie down the cover on my boat and take down our swinging sign on our steps LOL and I think it was about 4-5 am and I had Alisha up driving to the wharfs to watch the waves comeing in ...I live about 25 mins from lewis so we never got hit too hard either
