Duckmaster boat rebuild.

Looking good.
Just don't use pine. It dries up and turns to sticks really fast.

How long does it take to start tuning brown?

The cedar depends on heat and light. If it's hot and in the sun probably 1 week or so. All the stuff that folds up on the inside of my blind will stay green all season.

I really don't think it will matter much though. Maybe it's different down there, but the ducks don't seem to care if the boat looks a little out of place here. As long as it doesn't look like a boat and they can't see the people inside I've never had problems with ducks flaring off it.

Yeah I guess a blob of trees sitting on open water is a blob of trees no matter what the color.

Yup. Even along the shoreline they don't seem to care much.

Where are you planning on hunting with your boat?

Open water basically bc the water is about 30 feet from the shore line but as the season progresses I'll be hunting other bodies of water and my main lake is going to rise pretty quickly to the point where I'll be back to hunting the edge of the woods on the bank.
How deep is it where you hunt open water?

Without any wind influence the water is almost 2' deep at the cattails this year. I've been hunting the shoreline a lot more this year with the higher water. But when Im in open water I'm usually about 300 yards from shore. That's around waist deep. I don't like to hunt where I can't wade. It's just too much work doing it all from the boat.

I want to hunt closer in to shore but there's no water there. If I put my decoys out far enough to look believable I won't be able to hit any ducks
Going back out this week or weekend to drop gps markers on some Exposed sand bars so I can find them when the water goes back up.
Also found a rock bar that I didn't know was there. Somebody's gona fuck their boat up on that when it's hovering a few inches below the surface. Never seen this lake so low.

I wish I woulda GPSd all the high spots and rocks last year when the watt was low. Woulda made things a lot easier this year.
When you set up on open water just make sure you position the boat with a cross shot so the birds aren't staring straight at it when they come in. And keep all the decoys at least 10 yards from the boat. And I've found putting the boat by the downwind edge of the spread to be better...Keeps all their focus off the blind on on the decoys and they will fly right by in front of you on their way to land.

[FlintRiverFowler]

One thing I'm really liking so far is the branches kinda roll over the top into the boat so were gona be sitting in some heavy cover. Boat smells like a Christmas tree too.

[FlintRiverFowler]

Pretty simple the way I'm attaching this brush. Just screwing this plastic fence to the blind.

She is road worthy up to 65 mph but it's like pulling a damn parachute behind the truck bc of all the drag.

It can't pull that bad does it? Shouldn't sit any higher than the cab of your truck.

I guess. I have the capper on my truck so it works good. I don't even know my boat is back there.

A Christmas gift! Nothing worse than not having tools when you need them.
