Gotta ask.   How many things have you kerplunked over the side ? My shotgun might be at the bottom of whatever water I was hunting 

Pretty sure I would kerplunk along with my gear.  lol

It was harder yesterday with 2ft waves and a wounded drake I had to chase down and paddle finish 20 mins before sunrise ha...probably should wear my wetsuit under my gear ha

Oh I understand , I didn’t want to,go,out on a Johnboat with a PFD on , but Jay  asked about dropping his gun overboard ,which made me think Jay thought he hunts from it .

I can walk out front and shoot a duck 30 seconds later...never had it so easy can’t believe I didn’t start years ago 

[OtiscoPaul]

Maybe I can learn one of these knuckleheads to get em fir me...unlikely they are venison fat this December

I like that! The thought of a few mile ride in a metal boat ,  before sunrise, with temps in the teens, not so much .

You’re either really brave or really stupid or maybe it’s a combo of both!!!!

Just looking at the sheets of ice on the board tells me it's a slip and fall waiting to happen.  More power to you.  I'm sure you know what you're doing but I wouldn't get on that thing.

[OtiscoPaul]

Thanks fir the concern all...

I’m close to home and people know where I am...I’m tempted to go try fir another but I got company coming for the weekend (deer and duck on the menu)

for me it's just the slip hazard. cold ass water with heavy clothes is a bad deal. I'd think you could find a cheap kayak that would be a lot better choice. just my .02 though.

if i used that board it would be an exact pic like this- except.....  the dead duck would look a lot like me.  Hell I am lucky to get across the walmart parking lot in the winter!

Thanks again for your concern.

I have several hobe kayaks and various paddle boards a windsurfer an aluminum row boat and 17.5 fishandski...

I live here I’m pretty comfortable with understanding my limitations and the conditions.

Me using the word duck in this thread is always met with some consternation so I will bid you all happy holidays see you in October!

Looks like that's exactly what happened
