Of course that little incident of having paddled through a set of duck decoys because I was surprised that the ducks would let me get that close may color my opinions. Actually the guys in the blind were pretty nice about it. But between duck hunters, jet skiers, wake-boarders, flats boats (they run at 30+ mph in even less than a 1ft of water and never follow channel markers), intracoastal barges, and the occasional cigarette boat (with bikini clad women occupying the driver's full attention) I often feel like I have a target painted on my back. Hey, on second thought maybe a 50 caliber mount would be an important piece of safety equipment. --- Mark Arnold --- mjamja_at_earthlink.net *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
