Brian, Pretty sure Aime made my boats but Id have to check with Louis Lavallee to know for sure. Do you know Louis? He lives in St Marks and his wife Rhonda runs the PO from their home on the highway?


The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia

Yes indeed I know them. Rhonda is my second cousin.
By the way, Aime is still alive. I think he's around 93. But no longer making boats, lol!

My kind of hunt guys...thanks for the pics! I start drooling when I see Canvasbacks ready to rough pick and wax.
I never hunted Delta, but knew Al Hochbaum and some of the staff there. Don't get me started on the crying need for fire and grazing to restore the place! Did hunt the big marsh NW of Oak Point. Only time I've had flocks of Greater Scaup decoy in like their Lesser cousins. Also hunted The Narrows by Vogar and on a small bay west of Ashern near what the locals call "whitefish grass" beds (probably the big Sheathed Pondweed)said to be a magnet for Redheads. Always wanted to boat hunt Dog Lake, but had to settle for fantastic sharptail hunts in the buffaloberry stands along the shoreline. We were lucky to hunt the Saint Lakes in the 70's and '80's when they attracted so many diving ducks, but high water has rendered them useless.

I'm searching old threads rather than hunting.

From 1963 to 2003 my HE-Grade Super-Fox was my go-to waterfowl gun.

Last duck I shot with it --

The little bit of duck hunting I did in 2004 was with my heavy Parker Bros. 20-gauge. Never fired anything but lead or bismuth. In the summer of 2005 I got a little English Setter and I've been in the uplands since.

Sadly, the ducking this season was pretty terrible in my normal places. Knee high grass where there should be waist high water or more.

Still the opposite here. All my best diving duck and swan lakes are full of slimy fish and the submerged plants (mostly sago) are gone. My two Duckers remained in the trailer all season.

It is public land. Hopefully, underwater next year. It's been two years of extreme drought. The worst I have seen in 30 yrs here.
