HEY H2O K9,LOOK AT THIS. ESPN.GO.COM/OUTDOORS/CONSERVATOIN/S/H FEA DUCK RARE BANDED WIRE.HTML

COULD SOMEONE TELL ME WHEN DUCK SEASON OPENS IN ARKANSAS? JUST KIDDIN' GOOD LUCK TO ALL!

YEAH I REMEMBER HAVIN' ONE IN MY HAT ABOUT 30 YEARS AGO,WHEN I WAS STILL A YOUNG CHAP.WE WAS STANDIN' ON A LEVEE WATCHIN' A BIG FRONT BLOWIN' THE DUCKS IN,WHEN A BIG GUST OF WIND BLEW MY HAT OFF AND IN THE WATER. I DANG NEAR CRIED AS I WATCHED IT BLOWING ACROSS THE LAKE AND NO WAY TO GO GET IT.

CROW,THAT WOULD BE ME.100 POINT SYSTEM,10 POINTS EACH.

YEA WINGMAN,I KNOW THEY'RE NOT WHAT I'D CALL A PIROGUE EITHER, BUT OLD MR. WEBSTER SAYS A PIROGUE IS A DUG OUT CANOE,BY EXTENSION,ANY SMALL BOAT. I GUESS THATS WHY THEY'RE CALLIN'EM PIROGUES. EITHER WAY MAYBE OLE GATOR WILL FIND HIM SUMPTIN'. I'M HEADED TO THE DEER CAMP.SEE YA'LL

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT NOW,BUT DURING TURKEY SEASON PANTHER SWAMP'S GOT SOME OF THE BIGGEST COTTONMOUTHS AROUND AND ONE IN EVERY HOLE OF WATER. IF THE WEATHER DON'T COOL OFF YOU MIGHT SPEND AS MUCH TIME LOOKING DOWN AS YOU DO LOOKIN' FER DUCKS.

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS ONE.THE SHADOW PIROGUE,MODEL M-P08,JUST 40 LBS. GO TO http://WWW.MENARDBOATS.COM MAY NOT BE WHAT YOUR LOOKIN' FOR,BUT NOT VERY HEAVY.

I HATE TO HEAR THAT. I MIGHT NEED ANOTHER ONE SOMEDAY.I'VE GOT ANOTHER ONE THAT'S FIBERGLASS BUT IT'S HARD TO PADDLE BECAUSE THE BOTTOM DEFORMS WHEN YOU PUT ANY LOAD IN IT WHILE IN THE WATER.WORKS OK WITH A TROLLING MOTOR,BUT THATS JUST MORE TO CARRY IN.I'LL DO SOME LOOKIN' TO SEE WHAT I CAN FIND.

THANKS DOUBLE R

SORRY I TOOK SO LONG. LITTLE BOAT COMPANY,620 TWIST STREET,GREENVILLE MS.38701 PHONE 601-332-9805
