Christmas was only a week ago and it has been freezing cold for the past week and a half so the hopes of the lakes and rivers making good ice are good. So that means ICE FISHING season is here. I look forward to this just as much as opening day of duck Randy Duncanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10553455517645888913noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578198199356583310.post-39158825979217365532010-11-22T07:51:00.001-08:002010-11-22T07:51:04.616-08:00Beman Bone Collector arrow recallHi everyone.

Brady is a 4 year old boy that lost his battle with cancer a little bit ago. I hope you enjoy this post as much as I was apart of it.
As I read Chico's blog and started to understand the story of Brady it really started to get to me. My wife and I have two sons around Brady's age so it hit me Randy Duncanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10553455517645888913noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578198199356583310.post-61420189663592547282010-09-12T20:08:00.000-07:002010-09-12T20:08:45.986-07:00Hello Old FriendAh hunting season, it is like that old friend you haven't seen in a while but it is like you all never left each other. My first taste of the Good Life is the early goose season here in Michigan. I am going to tell ya if you have never tried goose hunting it is a trip. Even if you don't like the taste of goose you can always donate the meat to a charity or soup kitchen.

This show seems to be my most favorite. This show brings in a little over 13000 people every year. It is like every other show a bunch of decoys and call makers.But this show is special to me in many different ways.
One of the reasons it is special is the fact that Randy Duncanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10553455517645888913noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578198199356583310.post-44377782818404391002010-07-21T19:28:00.000-07:002010-08-01T06:53:52.947-07:00Waterfowl Boot Camp I woke up Sat morning and I knew it was going to be a good day. See this fine morning I was headed to the Waterfowl Boot Camp in Ohio. This was my first Boot Camp and it was a good time. The first stop on my list was a seminar put on by George Lynch of Lynch Mob Calls. I have been a fan of George's for a while.

My oldest was not feeling good the whole weekend. But both kids were feeling good this morning so we decided to do some visiting.

This by far was one of my best weekends spent outdoors. Literaly the whole weekend was spent outdoors. I got to sleep out on the ice in one of the shantys that we rented from Lymans on the Lake in Houghton Lake and boy was I in for a surprise.
My plan was to either get a hotel room or crash on the floor in one of the cabins.&Randy Duncanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10553455517645888913noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578198199356583310.post-692571856232899722010-01-29T05:46:00.000-08:002010-01-29T05:46:14.657-08:00The Ultimate Fishing show Part 2So after the seminars and a stop to watch my oldest son play in the kids area I was off to the fly fishing area.I started off at the Michigan Fly Fishing Club booth, again these guys were great.

It was a week before Christmas and my brother calls me and says there is 4 inches of ice on the Bay and they are catching perch just off shore. Well I can't pass up an opportunity to fish so I loaded up the ice fishing poles and bucket and we were off.
