no BS, that kid posted up on DHC telling a guy to get up with him that he knows all about hunting open water in NC.

a couple days later, i get a PM from the same kid wanting to know about hunting eiders and old squaw in NC. i've never even seen a eider in NC and we get VERY few oldsquaws.

I can tune with reed adjustments, that's all. I don't fuck with tone boards.

Exactly AT. Seasoned birds or not, if you think a mallard isn't going to commit because you are using a syncronized super bubinga with seals oil finish over an acrylic your smoking something. High end calls are for the callers, not the ducks. People used to kill hundreds of ducks a day using a call that to me, sounded like shit. Ducks didn't care.

You can get inserts from any call maker. As well as corks and reeds.

Only if it's from freshly maimed seals.

Wish I was a skilled clubber. Still waiting on the invite from flight control to go up and club me some baby seal.

Don't worry about that. I will club until I am sure it is gone. I need to borrow Assa's wifes hammer.
