I don't know what that means, but you can rest assure that we cut the f*** up when we go hunting, 'specially when it is slow. That skyscraper hat was damn good luck that season- there are a few members on the board who can vouch! Just not that hunt... come hunt with us sometime you balogne smokin' scrotum stoners.

Exactly the same. I don't have any pics of the thicket with a good shot of the background, but I can about bet my left prosthesis that it can't be much more open water surrounding it then where we hunt.

All this talk about hunting in the buck brush made me think about this picture with my Dad and my older son a few years ago during my son's first duck season. About 15 or so years ago, I killed my first banded greenhead one day about 25 yards away from this spot. I was hunting by myself in my inner tube, had tied off to some buck brush, and was in the middle of a serious "floating power nap" when I was startled awake by whistling wings right over my head. My head popped up as I had a mallard land about 20 feet away on the other side of a buck brush bush/tree/whatever the heck it technically is. We were both startled and he jumped into the air. My first shot went no telling where, and I emptied my other barrel and dropped him dead as a hammer. Some great memories right there.

Nice photo and an even nicer thicket. And unless I am mistaken, I am liking your pops' Filson packer!

Thanks! Yes, that is Dad's Filson packer hat we gave him for Christmas a number of years ago. He likes the tans, olive drabs, and brown colors but wears the camo patterns these days since these clothes keep him a lot warmer and dryer than the old school clothes we grew up wearing. He started hunting in that same place about 71 years ago and has some really great stories of "the old days" when they hunted in hip boots, old olive drab coats, and lots of layers of whatever was available. :D

:D Hey they are cheaper and they help when you are trying to quit- gives you the full flavor of how nasty they are. Worked for awhile. That hat was good luck that season, I tell ya.

Here is another pic with it on and some real camo gloves. Those things will keep your fingers warm on the warmest of days. Don't mind the guy in the back, it is fieldt76. Acting like a queer as always. Hard to kill ducks when a guy in your hunting party is wearing a purple v-neck. As I said in the filson thread, he is no longer in our camp.

It makes a hell of a mess in the boat but it works.
