Anything hand made, especially decoys. Bean bag boards (some call it corn hole) are a cool prize too. I do like the packages, like previously mentioned. Maybe a dog training package for new pup owners. or a canine travel package. The resin or cast sculptures, DU calls, Avery Decoys, etc...

Confirmed Allsopp decoys by the man himself. Hollow cedar & very light. I've never hunted them before but they've seen a marsh somewhere. Great addition to your rig or buy them for a that lumbersexual in your life. $200 shipped or best offer. I'd like to move these sooner rather than later.

I got out for a quick hunt this morning. I wasn't expecting much, as the hunting has been very slow. However the recent cold snap gave me hope. Lately I've been hunting solo, and I enjoy that; it gives my time to think, and hunt as I choose. Last night I was feeling nostalgic so I grabbed my...

Have you patterned your gun?

I believe A&F was about 60 years too early :)

Yep, "lumbersexual" is the look. My niece was in town from Ohio State and said the same thing... I just told my wife yesterday I was a trend setter! I've heard Bean is back ordered over 100k pairs. Look at where Filson is spending their marketing dollars, it's not on hunters... They don't...

We close in a week and the neighborhood ponds aren't even frozen yet...

Can you see a seam where the head transitions to the neck, at about chin level?

I haven't the slightest clue... I am not a collector so I don't follow Bean prices. I hunt all of my Beans, including the lightweight, so they get resealed and repainted when needed. Value will depend on if that paint is original. I've never seen an LL Bean decoy with the speculum painted...

They look like 50's Beans to me. I've got a lightweight Bean from the late 40's or very early 50's and the head is really similar if not identical.

Thanks for posting this Steve, I believe Mr. Soule would be jealous of those decoys. You've heard if before but... the amount of "imagery" you accomplish with a few brushstrokes is awesome and inspiring.

I was just going to offer the same suggestion. I too forget who told me about that "secret" the only thing I remember was that it happened at Westlake...

You'll be warm in the shop next winter!

It's nice to see you posting again Bob, I'm glad to hear the back is on the mend. I can look at pictures of your frond rig all day. Thanks for taking the time!

Feet - Filson heavy weight OTC socks Bottom - poly pro wicking layer, then fleece wader pants (the ones that look like normal pants) Top - Under Amour, then wool button up shirt, then fleece or wool vest, then Cabelas windproof sweater. If it's really cold my Filson Upland/Waterfowl tincloth...

No they won't, the lifetime warranty on Cabelas brand waders is now 1 year. I was on the phone with their customer service this morning due to leaky seams. The best they would offer me was to send them in "for evaluation" no guarantee of replacement or credit towards new... The customer service...

Thanks fellas! I was hoping for a little more traditional look, but it looks like Nerf is the way to go.

I know a lot of you guys have kids so I am hoping for a little direction. I'd like to get my 4 year old a pump or double barrel toy shotgun. Specifically something that shoots a foam projectile so he can hit his target rather than just pretend. With a 2 year old little brother, I think...

That's probably the smoothest reverse into a single garage slot I have ever seen.

Well, I got the rest of his request knocked out this weekend. The dog logged her 5th and 6th duck species of the year on Saturday afternoon, Ringnecks & Gadwall. Better late than never! Today we found a rooster in a small triangle between some woods, a logging/farming road and a corn...
