Waterfowl Hunting Vermilion Bay in South Central Louisiana

Duck calling instruction
I am very interested in becoming a good duck caller and was wondering what the best instructional dvd/cd there is out there on the market. I do not want to buy something that is not going to benefit me. I know there will be a lot of practice involved and I am willing and ready to learn so please, anything will help! Thanks!

Bayboat Decision
Boat Show was nice. I need help on decision on bay boat and engine. I narrowed down to 24 foot with at least a 250. I found out how Champion is in financial trouble and warranty is being done but puts a grey cloud on the future. So, that being said narraowed down to: HULL 1) Shearwater 2) Tritan 3) Naurtic Star Engine: 1) Yamaha 2) Honda 3) Mercury So, Question is what would be the best bang for the buck for a bayboat that would handles rough water like lake Borne. Any help would be helpful. I talked to fishing guides and they say Shearwater is fast and solid but the Tritan is better rough handling.The Yamaha is good, Mercury has some issues but better fuel econnmy. The Honda is .....

Sportsman Show
If your going to Lamar Dixon today, check out two booths...XFACTOR OUTDOORS and ELITESPORTSMEN OUTFITTERS. Xfactor is the maker of the dampening system that we use on all our bows. I'm not kidding when you when I say you wont believe the difference. It KILLS every other product out there....Sims, Bowjax etc... He is selling the kit for around half price at the show. Elite Sportsmen is an outfitter we hunt with in Oklahoma. They have phenomenal deer and turkey with the chance for a Muley. Very affordable, nice accommodations and 100% fair chase with a SUPER HIGH success rate. Last year 42 hunters took 34 bucks with a 125" min. Our 2010 promo is playing at the X factor booth.

Turkey Hunting Outside Louisiana

Worst Fear Has Materialized
Didn't see a turkey the entire deer season. Buddy saw a gobbler at the end of deer season. That is it on our land! Was hoping and still am that the disappearance of birds was due to a seasonal home range movement. Hoped they would be back for turkey season. Nope. Me and Johnny hunted this morning (Miss. season is ahead of La). We parked at the front gate. Right there, there was a couple of turkey tracks but there wasn't a feather or track anywhere else to be found. Zero birds heard by either of us. Maybe they will show back up later??? aaahhhhh But right now there are no birds to hunt.

Turkey Hunting Louisiana

Photo Album

Too much? Big Tom little jake

I am SOOOOOOOOO ready for turkey season to open!
By the look of things I have way too much turkey hunting gear. (B-Mobile and a hen decoy, new shells, new vest, 3D leafy suit, gloves, face mask, box call, gobbler, 7 locaters, the wing, mouth calls, 4 different friction calls, flashlight, and video camera). But according to one buddy; I don’t have enough! I have learned over the years…”It’s better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it”. Me and RP have been scouting some places we hunted last year. We have seen lots of birds. The other morning we saw 4 gobblers 7 jakes and 23 hens. It got my heart pounding. I’m bringing my 8 year old nephew on his first turkey hunt youth weekend. I can’t wait! Is anyone else ready for t ..... Read More

As Promised: Eulogy for Odis
Eulogy for Odis It was a rather cold day in October of ’01 as I had just gotten home in Shreveport from yet another blood transfusion to replace some red blood cells after surviving double doses of Chemo and Radiation in an experimental attempt to cure a terminal case of Small Cell Carcinoma I had been fighting since May of ’91 that the doctors had given me a .5% chance of living through, yet after 5 months, I was still alive. One afternoon, after returning from the hospital, my stepdaughter, Rachel greeted me at the door with this little butterball of black hair! One of my friends at Boomtown Bossier Casino had given me a lab puppy to ease the days’ anguish. Rachel had given him th ..... Read More

Coupler lock
This is a pic of a gorilla coupler lock. Nothing is theif proof, but will definately slow someone down. They run $20-$40 depending on where you get them. These are a great investment.
