    Default Rice trunks

    Anyone got a picture of the difference between the two styles? Would like to see a picture of the santee ones versus ace basin.

    I know where those are
    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    Thanks for nothing, had to actually do some research.....

    There are two general forms of tidal rice field trunks:

    Combahee (or ACE Basin style) and a Georgetown. The major difference

    between the two is in the angle of the door. In a Combahee

    trunk, the door is at an angle of 11-15 degrees. This door pivots on a

    rotating piece called a windlass. A Georgetown trunk door is nearly

    vertical and the door does not pivot as a Combahee door. Rather the

    entire door moves in or out depending on the use of the door for

    flooding or dewatering a rice field.
