Greetings

[Feathers and Fins]

I have been reading this forum for some time now and finally decided to join up. My Name is Scott and I have been blessed to have fished and hunted 28 States in this wonderful country and managed to go to 4 other countries to wet a line. I grew up in Socal and spend 7 years in Florida before coming back to the Families roots in Arkansas.

I am an avid Waterfowl hunter as well as Fisherman and on occasion get struck with buck fever. Fishing and Hunting were not acquired later in life instead they are in my genes, my grandfather upon finding out my mother was pregnant promptly went out and bought me a Saber Rod custom build by Leon and a Remington 870 ( im betting my mother was glad I turned out to be a boy talk about pressure).

From my first Bluegill of mere ounces to a Grander Blue marlin and from the first Rabbit to the majestic 6x6 bull elk, the lord has truly blessed me. On occasion during those cold days of winter ill even write up a short story about the outdoors as my mind wonders. It’s a wonderful world we live in and country to be able to experience the freedoms of the outdoors and the warmth it gives to a persons heart just for being in them.

Welcome to the forum Scott. Looking forward to hearing about your adventures and following your up coming waterfowl season. My step-son and his buddies are from Fayettville and with a little prodding, they took to duck hunting real good. They frequent the Beaver waters in pursuit of the ducks quite often, that is when they are not coming up to hunt with me in the Branson area. Again, welcome to the forum!

Thanks, Waterfowl is what I do alot of. My friends know I will stoop to know ends to mess with geese from Archery to a Canoe I put shells on to sneak into rafts just for giggles I look at goose hunting diffrent then most people, they are there for my laughter factor. Ducks I have two passions for Shooting and Taking Pictures of, I think its fun just to sneak ducks jus to get a picture of them going HOLY $!@$! and bust up. Stripers on a fly on deep water lakes is my third passion in the outdoors i had one of the best teachers possible for that and I blame him to this day for getting me addicted to it.
