No improvement Dundee. We drove the same route we walked last season. The water last season was keeping the fellas cool in the thigh waders, at the moment the track is basically dry. The sooner that bar gets set up, and the loos drained to the lake, the better.
Thinking of building a couple of these. Plywood Boat, how to build a one sheet plywood boat GardenFork.TV - YouTube Could use them to drag/float the gear out then use them as layout blinds. Could do a camo paint job, or paint them grey and use black polythene as a cover so they look like water troughs.
latest from Ecan(firday 05/04/2013) is mean water depth is 0.55mtres over an area of 180sq kms.yes gents shes a big duckpond. did a spot of maimaiing down the rakaia yesterday and bugger me a fat juvenile canada dropped in to commence a bit of avian horizontal tango with me floater decoys.he stayed dropped coutersy of my mates and hes just dropped down me throat with luvly spud topping and rich sauce.yeeesssss i love this organic meat.river was a little high -obviously runoff from the alps ,but good news plenty of birds buggerising about.

Attachment 8773pond at 5.45 tonight
Man that's a nice pond , plenty of ducks on it too .
Just get a decoy sled from cabelas. It will end up lighter than the plywood and probably no more expensive than buying the sheet of plywood. I wouldn't leave home without my decoy seld. Very handy for carrying a decent bag of swans or geese out in as well. A bigger sled is better as long as you can fit it in your vehicle.
at the moment first weekend in May is the one that counts
Looking good Lindsay Barnett I bet those harvested paddocks will be a blessing:thumbsup:
yes i am not complaning
Too late, pretty much just need to screw and glue it together. I'm after something that is bigger and more versatile than the sled. All the materials have been sitting in my garage for years. I could easily just pop a couple on the roof rack, or even nest them.
Hey Munsey, that rain is sounding good!
munsey-if ya got any spare concrete drop it in ellesmere too,might help raise the bloody level a little faster. i look forward to Hon gadget(member for DIY)sveltley sliding across the lakebed in his new plywood pontoon..like yon vessels of old prehaps one of your mighty goose decoys coulddecorate the prow old chap.
