Keep the cans going.

Photoshopped!

Well obviously

If you saw the puddle I hunt, you'd know that was a very lost soul.

The gun looks like it's been through hell and back.

Isn't that the gun that got dropped to the bottom of a pond or something?

Looks like the dog had hell getting that bird too. Looks like some gumbo mud.

It's a circa '90s HK imported 20ga Benelli Montefeltro that's been "rode hard and put away wet" quite literally:

Well, the coyote did flip it out of the boat and into the pond while trying to climb in, but it never made it to the "bottom". I found it with my knee. Ours is largely floating marsh to begin with, and my pond is little more than a wide spot in our boat trail, down which our predominantly easterly winds push humus until it finds a home in the catch basin of that wide spot. Thus, it's become "The Mudhole" and in dry years an "intersting" project for man and beast:


First you grind up the vegetation with a Go-Devil prop:




Then you grind up the humus "black dirt" that rises to the top:


Over and over and over again:




Until you have something that looks like water:


But isn't:


Olly, it's my intent to disqualify myself from competition with multiple entries. Thanks.

If I tried that here in the People's Republic, I'd most likely get a fine for "destroying wetland" or some such.

I think that is the most bad ass gun picture I have ever seen.

Your mud makes me ill...we have a version of it here, a fat boy like me always gets stuck in it. Hate that shit.

I prefer to think of it as "wetland restoration," though it's not a spot ducks actually use under any conditions. Been going there daily in season and a great many days out for over seven years now and actually moved ducks from it three times for sure and maybe a fourth. But a good many pass and can be tolled to it.

The little 20 has been a faithful partner, but this is without question my favorite picture of it:

Believe it or not Rick, your dog is what has changed my opinion on CBR's.

I would love to meet him some day.

He takes his ambassadorship quite seriously and schmoozes everyone who hunts with him:


Whole lot more folks want him in their hero shots than yours truly. Not that I blame them. But all of my Chessies have broken the stereotype and won over a cadre of friends. As with anything else, the good ones just don't get the press the bad ones do.

We can call it "going hunting"

Damn Rick! You run a skinny boat! What is that, a 38" or 42"?

Think dogs call it "living large".

It's a 16x38 or 44 Go-Devil with a 16 horse "crawfish" (shorter than the long tail) tail Go-Devil that lets us go - and get back out of - places in the floating marsh where I'd not want anything else short of an airboat. (Which is why I've passed on our bigger and more powerful stuff.)

Canvasbacks you say?..Ok

Now, that's a can photo.

Your camera is better than mine. Very nice!
