Don't know about you guys, but I'm planning for rain. 50% chance of showers where I'm hunting. I've got the parka, but I don't want to overdo it if the temps are in the 60/70's, so I might break out my advantage wetlands rainsuit. The gun is going to need a good oiling if the rain comes.

I'm afraid it could make the hunting miserable. Not the wet part, but keeping the birds grounded.

Anybody else have any other plans or tips for rain?

I'd rather have some low clouds and some rain versus skies like we have today.

I dont think rain will ground the ducks. A harddriving rain will, but if its not too much of a down pour, it'll be fine.

The silver lining-We could really use the rain to bring a few of the marshes up!

I have had enough rain for a while.

      Don't take me wrong, I'm not anti-technology.  Battery powdered items will always have their place.  I'm mean you don't want your girl friend or wife in the bedroom playing for their gas powered adult toys!!  That would be a bit loud and smokey!

      That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty.  Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.   As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows,  you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.

      I think electric items have their places, I just don't think large commercial jobs are going to be able to work well with them. Can't see a logging crew out in the woods all day changing batteries!
