That sucks. What oil do they say you are supposed to use?

Went to Holly Beach Sunday to patch a hole in the boat and brush, highest water I've seen since we've had the place. Didn't get there until around noon but saw a good bit of gads flying around, one big flock of redheads, and zero teal. Looks like the spoons won't be so lucky this opener..

I haven't had that conversation yet. I've been thinking it over and I am certainly going to dispute this decision by them. I've reviewed the manual and warranty and no where in either does it advise against using synthetic oil. Reading on the internet tells me that a oil high in Zinc would be best for an air cooled engine. Makes me mad that they don't tell you this stuff when you buy an engine.

Set and ready at the lodge. Not real excited to see my strap on Saturday. High water, and not a lot of birds in creole. Big difference in the pond before and after that big rain.

I heard the water in Pecan Island is very high. Going set out decoys tomorrow at my lease South of Kaplan. I hear we still have a good amount of ducks on the farm.

Cannot wait until SAT.

Y'all can thank me later.

Went down to GC Sunday afternoon to touch up the blind and we got about an extra foot or so...Saw a few ducks here and there and rode around the marsh a little bit jumping up a few, but when were leaving closer to dark, there were some good flights of birds coming in. We'll take what we can get this weekend and I definitely wont get bent out of shape if we only kill a handful.

I'm shocked at how many people are putting decoys out a week in advance. I try to pick mine up after every hunt as a lot of our birds stick around and smarten up over a couple weeks.
