It's sneak boat time!

[shotgunjohn]

So I decided it's time to try out the Hobie as a sneak boat.





It didn't work too bad. The Hobie runs on pedal power so I could lay back and keep a low profile.
Interesting shooting as the boat is moving one way and the ducks another but I managed to connect on a few.



And a close up of a skunkhead.




This was a no Bufflehead hunt by the way as I don't like eating the little beasties.

I just spent a year and a half up to my armpits in sawdust and all i really needed was a canoe and some broom?....damn.

Well look at it this way Kyle you'll get a lot of satisfaction when you finally kill a scoter over those decoys.


So I just finished a dinner of slow roasted goldeneye stuffed with apples and floated on a bed of onions and cranberry juice and I understand why we are only allowed two a day.
Otherwise I think I would kill them all. Man I love a nice corn fed mallard but that was dining at a whole different level.

Have a recipe to share John?? I havent tasted a diver since I shot them when I was ten. It would be interesting to ty something different!

Jr.; Pretty simple. Stuffed it with apple chunks, slathered on butter and seasoning (some Cabela's stuff which did little other than flavor the skin, which John loves and I do not ) 1/2 a can of cranberry cocktail, and a glug of white wine. 250F for 3 hours covered, remove lid & ramp up heat to 425 for 20 minutes to crisp up the skin.
