Happy New Year to all my fellow Waterfowlers!I wish you all a happy,healthy 2009,with no tangles in your decoy cords and no unexpected trips over your wader tops!I'm hopin' to be healthy enough for spring geese up here (Feb.21st),and since I have a CAT scan in Vancouver on Mar.12th I'm coming down early to try and bum a seat in Branthunter's layout boat!All the best to Everyone........Cheers,Gunner:smile:

Funny you should mention going over the waders. Had a little mishap walking through the marsh couple weeks back and finally tried to walk over a nice little drop off. Well I went down, water over my waders, held my gun up while my brother behind me pulled me back up. I was sortof half neutrally buoyant, and half swimming. I didnt even get that wet, the waders held most of the water out. Funny none-the-less though.

And did someone mention brant? Almost done rigging, still gotta make some longlines still. They're starting to take up to much room, so I had to start hanging them against the wall.

I was waffling about that season (again) Murray but you've helped me make up my mind and the seat's yours. I'm hoping Adam will have a cpl. of days off in that time too, and maybe 870 and that , along with Gordon from Denman and Al and Billy from Nanaimo, pretty much fills my dance card for the season.
Crazy: That's a good looking set you've got there. I'd love to get together with you one day after we get off the water , maybe when Gunner's here.

Those decoys look very nice Crazy, what kind are they? Are you guys headin out by yerselves or with "The Legend"? If ya can get your hands on some halibut ground line it makes the best longlines. K
