Posted By: Old Wingmaster Guest All over the Country 06-25-2008 16:23 – – – Never thought I would have to hunt so hard to find a deal on Coot Decoys. Was successful though and at $19.50 for 1/2 Dozen if those weighted dekes I think I got a deal on them. Was a close out they are not selling them in the future. Next step, taking inventory tomorrow of all Decoys, repainting them and riggin some Texas Rigs as well as adding some long lines.

Going Hunting without a Trained Retriever is like going on a honeymoon without a bride. [Edited… Continue reading
