I am my own dog, so to answer your question no, I do not hunt with a dog. And I hunt the southeast corner of the state Kenosha, Racine and Waukesha county.

Always run a dog, by far one of my favorite parts of the hunt. I enjoy good dog work, we often hunt with 2 dogs. Can't beat two decent dogs that will honor one another and make short work of downed birds. Witness some nice retrieves this one with many blinds over that 100 yard range. My dog is no perfect robot when it comes to casting, he hunts more than trial dog should on casts, but i can handle him to where he needs to be to make a successful retrieve.
I will say i did hunt with some shoot trained dogs as well, guys I invited and they show up with this "good" dog. Never once asked to bring the bastard with. Couple things I hate are dogs that break..... And for good reason and also a dogs that does not stop whining the hole time. If your dog breaks then tie it up. Okay my small rant is over
I am in the la crosse area.

I went to a place in Ottawa, Il. Yesterday called The Bone Shed. It is the headquarters for Bone Collector Hunting and Hard Core Decoys. It was awesome. The have a huge display of mounts from a Russian Brown Bear to Deer. The store is very big. I bought some Wood Duck decoys, some shirts and some other stuff. If you get a chance, you should go. Here is a picture of some of the decoys.

Gander isn't very good around here either. Not what it used to be.
