    Re: retrieving ducks from the river?

    we shot a goose over the river. It was a little more excitement than i needed. it was a POS inflatable dingy, there were like 3 small holes that we didn't have the tools to patch. it was a race against time. I made it but it was for sure not easy at all. i think a long pool cleaning stick or a treble hooked rope or cable would have worked

    I totally agree with Field Marshal, This is the most embarrassing thing I've ever read on this site! If you bozo's want to go fishing then go fishing !!!! for fu#@%k sakes . If you want to hunt waterfowl then get the proper gear to get the job done.

    I have done this many a time.

    Wow, a little touchy are we?? After all that action today I figured you'd be pretty played out by now! K
