Hi Pat...this thread interested me as years back I attempted to attract Ruddys on a lake I hunted which had a Ruddy presence during the season. They always flew around my diver rig reguardless if I was hunting from shore or lay out. I made this rig and was set.....I thought. They still flew...

for Brad B.....Whewwww. I thought maybe you took to the brown water or maybe you got kicked in the head by a mule or something. Glad to hear you are still sane. ;-) BTW no disrespect intended to those of you that climb the mountains. I would if I could. But after serving Uncle Sam some time...

Brad B you would actually stand in line to climb a mountain? OMG!

WOW. I'll miss that mess as I'm traveling. In MN right now. Will you be at the farm house for the weekend?

👍 my go to duck gun is an SXS Ithica/SKB 100 2 3/4 inch with 25 inch bbls. Had the full bbl opened to true mod as the mod bbl was measured IM. Single selective trigger. Wonderful duck gun with 1 1/8 oz of 3's or 4's at 1400 fps. I started shooting ducks with 2 barreled guns back in...

I'll start saving my aluminum cans!

Brad how about a picture of the American Tug you were on?

Yes Brad, I think both Pat and I dream of you retiring and inviting us onboard your converted tug for a few hunts at various places along the coast. We can all dream can't we? :-)

Yes it's a legit letter. I received one. It was widely reported here by the State Game Dept. as well as the local news sources. I don't think any unauthorized use has been detected......yet.

Hi George .... The original materials I used were Al tube and copper tube that fit a little loose so I had to solder a brass strip to the copper and then file it to fit. I also made the joint a little longer than necessary and that all added up to being a little heavier than necessary. I have...

I considered that before I posted these but after meeting Chuck at West Lake some years back I have decided that I could be in worse company. :-))

Thanks for the kind words Pat. I also have finished up 2 canvas Swans with removable heads. That has had a learning curve but I think I now have made the correct jig for boring the holes and the correct materials so future decoys will be easier.

3 cork and one hollow white pine ....... gunners in time for this season One is a donation to a local Great Falls, Mt fundraiser auction similar to "Make a Wish".

Not from NJ but I ordered mine last week from the USPS site and received them in 3 or 4 days

Thanks for the replys and I'll bet you are correct in saying it was a DCF post. Since I don't do face book I had all but forgotten about that forum. Thanks again ... I'll check out the suggestions

A while back...a year or so ?......there was a discussion of pencils and someone on here enlightened us with info on "Made in the USA" lead pencils that were way superior to some of the junk on the market. I have searched but can't find that information so.......can someone bring that info back...

Al's post reminded me that I had a pair of Komorner tumblers, a pair of Blue Baldhead tumblers, a pair of white kings and a pair of brown Modena pigeons along with various local pigeons to start my flock. I believe I bought the fancy pigeons from California from adds in the pigeon journal. I...

I raised several types of tumblers when I was in HS in the early 60's. Just cause I loved birds. At my peak I had about 100. I lived up in the hills about 3 miles from the closest grain fields. In the fall they would fly to the valley and feed as a flock. Biggest problem were Goshawks in the...

Mike .... K and N Electric on Freya (700 N on the West side of the street I think?) is a long standing motor rebuilder here in town if you end up needing a rebuilder. Also have parts etc. I've used them a couple of times over the years for parts.

Joking or not?? it's still a very enlightening experience for some I'd think......sort like a bunch of COPs getting together or retired iron workers I'd guess. :-) BTW...at least one of those guys can cook!!
