We currently have a 2 hour video on hunting, using our BRANT II 2-man scull boat, the WHISTLER 2-man pumpkinseed style layout boat, the SOUTH BAY SCOOTER (2-man marsh and layout boat) and the E. ALLEN DECOYS.

This video includes two hours of hunting, set-ups and sculling instructions. You will see scull hunts in good weather and fowl (pun intended) on Goldeneye, Bufflehead, Mallards, Woodies, Bluebills, Merganser, Redheads and Coot (yes...Coot). We also have a segment on the two-toned brown base camouflage pattern which we have developed through PPG for our marsh hunting.

We have been working with some biologist, from the U.S. FISHERIES & WILDLIFE DEPARTMENT, in their studies and collections. They specifically needed to collect actively feeding diver ducks so as to check stomach contents to track their feeding habits and their impact on the Zebra Mussel infestation we have here in Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie .

Our BRANT II scull boat and our sculling has proven to be the most effective means they have found to harvest these birds. Also included is footage showing how we set up for layout hunts in conjunction with our sculling.

We use the sculler and tenders (22' & 18') to set decoys for our WHISTLER and SOUTH BAY SCOOTER, then pull back to shore or anchorage with the scullers and tenders. We will set decoys out near shore and scull through the decoys when birds land. We also go out sculling on rafts of birds for shooting and to push them for our layout shooters. We will typically have two or three scull boats on shore to lend support and versatility to the hunting. We are featuring our own guide service LOU'S GUIDE SERVICE and THE COVERED GATE OUTFITTERS

This video is a 2 tape set on painting the E. ALLEN DECOY. Following a brief introduction we cover: materials needed, overview of decoys available, preparation, assembly & priming. Then we move on to paint six drake decoys: Bufflehead, Goldeneye, Mallard, Bluebill, Redhead and Canvasback using our flat marine enamel paints as well as some acrylics.

We also show and explain how to keel and rig your decoys for puddleduck hunting and open-water layout shooting with mother lines. You will also get a chance to see some of the other drakes and hens to be shown in subsequent videos. ***This video gives you a "close-up", almost "hands-on" look at decoys and painting.
