We were just gonna stay out there all night and hunt this morning, so we went ahead and threw out the decoys and everything(big "no no" to some on public waters I know. but this spot is deep in the sticks and it was a sunday night). Getting your truck stuck was direct result of leaving your decoys on public waters unattended. Your transgression was duly noted by the Duck Gods and a penalty levied. Mother Teresa (of Waterfowling) saw fit to intervene on your behalf. Your good fortune on the next morning hunt proves only that the Duck Gods are a benvolent bunch and should not be construed as an endorsement of your top water methods. Hopefully you have learned your lesson.

we wrapped the chain around each of our receiver hitches. It took a pretty good tug, and when Dave tugged it it bent his hitch a little downwards somehow.

The problem is you keep buying trucks that don't have a blue oval on both ends  H-birthday FD...
Don't let your ears hear what your eyes didn't see, and don't let your mouth say what your heart doesn't feel As much as I hate to admit it, I do like my truck

I wanted to a least give it a shot. But I got a hell of a deal on this. It helps when you're girlfriend's uncle is the GM of a dealership.

I'm like the mother Teresa of waterfowl YOU?!??! I'm the one that needs to buy a new hitch receiver! not my fault you boys dont know how to hook up a chain haha  That chain was stout but what is it with you guys with the big chains, little hooks? It was pretty much our only option  Anyway the hitch thing isn't broke, but since it's bent now it might eventually develop a stress crack since the weight of a trailer will be pulling along the short axis of the metal instead of the long axis. It's one of those things where it works fine now but maybe worth getting ahead of the curve on .
