What poundage do you recommend for taking canoes?  How big is a trophy canoe?  Should you marinate it before you eat it?

Good luck to Ya'll Ed.Sounds like a cool way to hunt.We used to shoot squirrels with the .22 poleing a pirouge(cajun canoe)down the bayous and slews.

Hunting from a canoe is really a great experience. Have fun and remember to watch out that your bottom limb doesn't hit the gunnel when you shoot.    :banghead: ....     :D

Ron---it sure makes a helluva sound....kinda sends out a warning signal to the whole swamp......It still amazes me how (some of) the deer sometimes 'pause' for a brief second or two..seems to catch them slightly off guard--hopefully long enough to get one in the air..

Who make the canoe in your pic???  It looks sweet.

  :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:  

                  Good luck hunting,

Do you shoot from a seated or a standing position?  If seated, any reason you couldn't shoot out of an open cockpit kayak.  I'd guess you have to severely cant the bow(nearly horizontal...

Steve - I try to kneel as much as possible--gives me a pretty good platform and gets me above the sides a lot better...The shorter the bow the better...I am carrying a 56" longbow..

What body of water are you guys floating? River, lake, creek? I've done the river runnin', its a blast, and some deer can be had this way!
make sure the canoe is a stable one with a wide bottom and a good keel!

I miss those early mornings on glassy water, steam rising..... I used to use my canoe to get to my favorite duck hunting waters. I gotta get another canoe.

Scott D.-- we are hunting a creek bottom that runs through swamp, fields and hardwoods....it is about a 3 mile stretch with minimal houses which is a lot to say for considering it is about 70 miles NW of New York City....

Bill W..--I beleive Scott was using a 3 blade that ended up a 2 blade  "[laffsmyl]"  (inside joke)
