feeders have been out for a couple of weeks now awaiting their return

take some of the rusty shells you have now and cut the ends off. see what they look like, cheap steel with no plating will most likely be rusty. some may be a solid chunk.

we had the first one of the year here in NJ saturday. hope they hang around all summer, neat birds

DON'T SHOOT THEM, YES I AM YELLING LOL I used to do this to the old shells left over from the year before. get the rust off of the brass and shoot them. then one day it happened, as I shot at a blackduck the end of my barrel exploded, I went home and cut the crimps off of all the other...

depends on the pattern. IMO. a flat bottomed decoy you should leave a 3/4 or 1" solid bottom board to put back onto the upper half. on a round bottom style I always try to split where it will be less problematic. like not on the centerline of the tail or a wing if it will be carved in detail later.

the outfitter was Cal's hunting and fishing, I believe we hunted zone 18 both trips south central part of the island. the owner was supposed to credit me $500 for the second trip because I did not get a shot. this was the deal. he never sent the money so I did not rebook. If he had honored...

I made two trips to newfoundland in the early 90's and killed a bull moose with my appalachian flatbow on the first trip. long shot 55 yrds , the second year up I brought two other guys with me and the outfitter really screwed us over. put us on an island basically, couldn't walk more than a...

I have a pair of smokejumpers and I agree they are great, most comfortable well made boots I have ever had didn't know a member here was the ceo. just makes it better.

I have had really good luck with one spread of decoys I made by sealing the cedar with west systems epoxy, after fully cured sanding and putting a coat of gesso, then finish painting with goldens acrylics. they have stood up to some heavy use and are now 10 yrs old with only slight wear.

I have a pair of pliers like that, must be 30 yrs old, use them for fishing, cutting mono, taking hooks out. they keep on going. you can find similar ones for sale new, never heard of using them for making decoys.

I have a pair of beretta silverhawks . one 12 and one 20 they are modern guns that can take steel shot and you get a lot of gun for the money when compared to some others in their league .

you found a lot of stuff, but where do the tape measures go. I would think if I cleaned the shop, I would hope to find at least 20 of them. you didn't even find one tape measure?

I'm going to have to do it then, always wanted to make my own soppressata. maybe a structure like a smoker on legs insulated box with a small heater thermostat, humidifier and humidifier controller. then a cooling unit like I have in my walkin with a coolbot controller and small chiller. do you...

Yep! Was going to try some cured solid pieces like Bresaola and then some landjaegers too. do you know of anyone that makes a unit already set up for fermenting dry sausage, I have been wanting to make up a unit for years and never get around to it. some of the bacterial cures want to...

I received a survey this year and sent in my preferences to a later season. so there is one vote there already.

I've been there twice myself, not much fun, the first time my lab exited a second before I did, chasing a wood duck that I flushed, he swam to the bank and sat there looking at me standing in water up to my neck. he knew he was in big trouble second time was in a two man duck boat paddling down...

I did a dozen black cork cans and buffleheads around 25 years ago and they are still holding up well I took all of the black cork dust and mixed it with thompsons water seal. made a paste and filled all the voids. when it dried I sanded and then primed and painted with rustoleum. I know...

have had glasses since 13, contact since 15, I never wear my glasses now. 2 week disposables and they are always in great shape. just keep your glasses in your duck bag or on the boat in case you loose one during the hunt. has never happened to me, but loosing your dominant eye contact in...
