    10ft jon layout duck boat

    I've been wanting one for a couple trips we have planned to the UP and for a local lake that holds lots of diver ducks. I've done a little searching and found that lots of guys just camo their normal fishing boats to look like waves and such. Divers aren't that smart, compared to puddlers, so...

    10ft jon layout duck boat

    I've got an older 10 footer laying around with a less than mint transom, so I'm afraid to use any of my small outboards on it (3.9 horse and 5horse). I'm a newly addicted duck hunter, and want a layout boat without shelling out the big bucks. I'm sure there's a way to fit two guys shoulder to...
