Metal reeds for Reelfoot
« on: October 06, 2016, 09:12:56 AM »


Got to give a big thanks to Fred Roe first off. His tutorial and jig are what I used this year for the metal reed inserts that I made. I no longer dread having to make these calls. I don't make a lot of them a year, but now I don't mind it if I have to make a few more.

You won't get money rich in this hobby.  The richness is in the culture, the craft, the friends you meet along the way, and being able to call in a wary game animal with a call that you made with your own hands.

Outstanding calls as usual!  It's great to see some of your calls again.

Nice Job.... :yes:
Of all the things I've lost while call making...its my mind I miss the most.

Great calls Brian and that flat top checkering is great "old school" traditional.

Reelfoot, the original duck call. What's on your lanyard?
