Kunut , Kunut, Kunut finished strong

Last night was our World famous Surf & Turf dinner by Deb with a 14lb Primerib and Side of Fresh Crablegs, Today was all about Kevin K, We was the hot gun out in the Zodiak with a five bird finish in the last 1.5 hours this morning including Kings,Common Scoters and Harlequin. We had quite an adventure getting out to a remote point by snowmobile we ended up with 9 birds total for the last hunt closing the chapter on Wk 3. Still 100% on Eiders and lots of bonus birds going back to Illinois and PA. I want to thank Dave M from Pa, Dan & Jackie Martis, Ed and the 2 Kevins. We had a real tough week with the weather but they still managed to get allot of great Birds from there hard work and never quit attitude by everyone.

The survival drysuit with swim fins will be very important this week as the wind is blowing strong to hunt out of the boats for a couple days. for the boats. Photobucket

More to Come on old Blue as many of you don't know Capt Russ was a competitive Whitewater Kayak Racer and feels real good in our new Dry suit being able to swim out and Retrieve birds when the wind isn't right for the points, Another first on Island X as Team Xtreme pulls out all the stops for our guest's to be able to retrieve downed birds.

  1. Looks like everybody is having fun in the snow. I am a little concerned about your sanity. I think the cold, wind, dark, ice, salt water, and snow might be taking its toll. Awesome birds, I kinda miss the island.
