    Same as last year. I'll be in the 'yak most mornings. It's hard to beat that calm quiet time before daylight on a paddle into your spot.

    So why don't all you pirogue wannabe owners hook up and deuce to Louisiana for an out of state trip. The first day you're there go ahead and pick up your licenses, pirogues, and marsh maps. Then hunt for a week, have a blast, catch some fish, and haul your own boats home! At probably $300 per boat for shipping you'd almost be breaking even and would get one hell of a good cast and blast trip in as well. If I know you and like you......maybe Ill even draw you a map of where you can go to kill some birds on public land while you're there. However, you'll need a boat that's big enough to haul the men, pirogues, and gear on a 35-45min trip out to the marsh. I used to make the run in my 16ft Xpress at almost 40mph and it took about 35min to get out there. Great hunting though and fishing like nothing you've ever seen for reds and trout! Might even get lucky and bag a pig off a levee while you're running home!

    The bigger the boat you can take the better for that run RK is talking about. Spent many a morning making that puckering ride. Especially in a little fog. But damn if it wasn't worth it!!!!

    I'd be curious on shipping too. One of those cottonmouths would be a nice addition.
    In the morning be first up, and in the evening last to go to bed, for they that sleep catch no fish. ><)))*>

    BigBrother: We're definitely cool. Let me know if you need/want directions.

    A bigger boat helps but isn't necessary just to get some hunting in. There's more than one spot down there that takes a bit to get too. If you don't have a "Sea"worthy boat but still have something in the 40-60hp range (minimum) and want to make the trip I've got an alternate location that would still be safe in a smaller rig. It's still a pretty good ride though at about 40min each way. The duck hunting is mostly for teal, gadwall, and mottled ducks but you'll have redfish tailing in the decoys and there's still a possibility for a pig in the area. It's known to attract a pretty good amount of snow geese as well but you'll really be doing some work if you want any chance at getting on them.

    You got my attention. Maybe I could work a dealer visit into the mix and get help on the fuel.

    Back to original post, I'll be in my War Eagle (doubtful), the old pirouge I got from Ring King and patched up nicely by the way. (More doubtful) or my Gheenoe with a smokin paint job by Stumpknocker. (Probable) Or Phoneman's Pro Drive or Man Downs Gator Tail. (Most probable). Or might just head out on the pontoon with a couple loaves of WonderBread.

    DP, you have any more pics of your boat? Interior layout.

    I've been tossing around a skiff or jones bro's bateau as my next boat, if for nothing else, deck space.

    15' Xpress with a 25 yamaha. I might take the gheenoe out if I need it. I'll only need waders when I'm in South Carolina.

    Sorry but I don't have any interior pics, but I can give you a little info. Its a 2011 Carolina Skiff 19 65 DLX. I bought it from a friend who only used it a few times. The boat has a small center console and its set back closer to rear of the boat with a small leaning post . The boat has a large front deck, with lots of storage underneath. I painted the boat OD green with Parker Duck Boat paint. So far its worked great, been in some pretty rough water on up in NC last year. Other than getting a little wet it did a super job. The attached pic shows the boat just after I painted it, it shows some layout of the boat. This thing has a ton of room too.
