Other Hunting in Louisiana

Deer Hunting in Louisiana
Anyone have any experience with the no longer manufactured (to my knowledge) Browning rolling block 45/70? I've only seen them at gun shows and they caught my eye as a beautiful breechloader that needs to be mine. Are they accurate? Reliable? Made in the U.S.A? Finish issues? Any input would be appreciated.

Inshore Fishing in Fourchon / Grand Isle in Southeast Louisiana
I was thinking about going to GI or Elmer's for some wade fishing. How did everyone do this past weekend? It looks like the winds should lay down a bit, or so the weatherman says. Any input or advice would be appriciated.

anyone have any experience with the Remington 1100 in the 28 gauge? i don't know anyone personally that has one to ask. i've heard they may have cycling issues. i'd like to get one, i already have the 12 and 20 gauge, and a 28 would be a neat rabbit/dove gun. any advice would be appreciated.
thanks

Deer Hunting in Louisiana
anyone have a .38-55? been looking for a unique gun. i know the availability of ammo is an issue, but i won't be shooting that much anyways. i like the idea of the lesser recoil than the 45-70.
BTW, ruger used to make a model 1 in that caliber, talk about sweet.

Waterfowl Hunting in Morgan City in South Central Louisiana
just wondering has anyone ever tried to hunt the wax in a layout blind? i could see where it would work so long as the tide was going out or at least low. the season is nearing and i've already cleaned my gun and deeks so i'm trying to cope as well as i can.

Waterfowl Hunting in Louisiana
ok guys, need some advise.

my muffler on my go devil surface drive is about shot, the cover plate rusted off en route to the prairie at manchac. now i see blue flames shooting out like a stock car. it sounds pretty cool, like i've had some work done on it. i'm worried that rain water could sit in there and do damage. also i don't think the air intake can take that kind of sustained heat..... Read More

Waterfowl Hunting in Southwest Louisiana

anybody have any advice for a varmint gun? thinking about a 22-250 or a .223. how about brand name, not a fan of encore, don't want to buy extra scopes for each barrel. also, can you shoot nutria at the wax lake WMA? that would be a neat way to gear up for coyote. thanks.

anyone have any kudos or gripes about the gator-tails or the prodrives? i've got a go-devil surface drive now and i am not impressed one bit. i hunt the wax almost exclusively and i am tired of pushing that heavy ass boat out. the prop bogs the motor down even in soupy mud. i know i'm opening myself to a wide open debate but let's try it. i've heard mixed reviews about Prodrive having trouble.... Read More

Waterfowl Hunting in Morgan City in South Central Louisiana
congrats on the beautiful pintail greenhead. i've been looking for one like yours for a quite a while. reading everyone else's reports about the rough times hunting the wax makes me feel better. it's been pretty difficult to get even teal to commit to the spread. most will work our spread then just drift off like they're not interested. had to get out of the boat-blind and just sit in a grass.... Read More
