Several weeks ago there was a thread that included a wealth of advice on end of life planning. Topics such as a Transfer of Deed upon death. If that could be located again, I would mech appreciate it. Thanks

re: Duck/Goose Hunting

Posted by Duct6slayer on 1/4/25 at 10:02 pm to Biggins

Drove from Kaplan thru Lake Arthur this afternoon. Saw several groups of geese on either side of Wright on the south side of 14. There's nothing compared to what used to be. Farming practices here and in the upper Midwest have changed drastically. Also habitat creation has exploded north of us. The rest of the flyway figured out this could be a big business. And we're left with scraps. Only about 30% of ducks migrate. The rest are pushed by weather. When ice and snow keep them from eating, they move. And go right back when thawed. So the majority of the flight never make it down here. And where the young ducks stop the first year is home for their next migrations. Hunted rice fields in Sweetlake and guided at the Coastal Club till 2019. Good luck in the morning. Let's go get some mo!

I used to guide at the Coastal Club and he would sit on his shell box on the bench. Bad knees!. Kinda hard to hide him in the blind. Watched his kids and grandkids grow up. Good people.

Just switched from Safeco to Allstate in Sulphur. Dropped from $7960 to $3900. Apples to apples comp. Kept vehicles w Progressive though. Safeco treated me right for Laura 2020. Doesn't matter who you have or switch to, they're all going up

re: What companies are currently writing homeowners policies in SWLA?

Posted by Duct6slayer on 9/6/24 at 9:56 pm to MNCscripper

Got quoted by Allstate for almost half of what I have now with Safeco. Similar coverage. Safeco treated me good for Laura and Delta but they're pricing themselves out. Will check w Goosehead on Monday. State Farm is not writing homeowners at the moment is this area.

re: OT Plant workers - how’s your facility handling the new supply chain issues?

Posted by Duct6slayer on 1/12/22 at 5:56 pm to The Goon

In Industrial Pipe fabrication. Quotes only good for 2 days on pipe/valves/fittings. Alloys 6-8 wks. Paint is 3-4 wks out. Hotshot service from Houston to SWLA is insane. And the customers don't care. Build it as fast as you can.

The best year guiding at The Coastal Club north of Creole was 06-07 after Rita in 05. Missed a 3 man limit only 3 days out of 60. The marsh rolled; new and different vegetation. It was a blast.. Not that way anymore though
