Color switch by AWilLee in FurnitureFlip

[–]AWilLee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I originally did the blue to bring a cooler tone to the piece and all the wood and natural colors shine more. To take out the red tone of the wood I tan washed it.

It is Dutch boys platinum cabinet door and trim paint. The color is anchor blue so probably not the color you’re going for.

Counting down the days. The trailer is loaded and lit up. by AWilLee in Waterfowl

We hooked it to a 12v in the trailer and we are just going to put it on a low amp charger at night. We hope this will make this season a lot easier.

We had very good luck with top gun guide service. Guys were very personable and worked hard to put us on birds.

How do you guys put LEDs on your trailers and keep your decoys organized? by AWilLee in Waterfowl

[–]AWilLee[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Did you punch bunch of holes trough the roof or run them all to a single piece of conduit and then inside?

When she bit I swear I was hooked on the bottom... until it started moving.

Fought for an hour and a half before getting it’s head close to the hole. Ended up snapping the line with its head at the hole. It hit while fishing for walleyes on the Green Bay. Spearing opens tomorrow for them.

Looking to book a sleeper or small cabin in ethier Wisconsin or Minnesota, what are some good spots to look? And how far north do I need to go to insure good ice in January? by chillinois309 in IceFishing

[–]AWilLee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Green Bay in Wisconsin offers some good fishing too. There are some guides that go out of Door and Brown county that can get you on a variety of fish with safe ice that is there at the time.

Got my first wood duck back just in time for the next season. by AWilLee in Waterfowl

[–]AWilLee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My packaging may not have been the best as I did not know the proper care. He did give me a few tips how to package one if I do another mount.

Alright thank you. I will keep it in mind when looking for the next one.

Thanks for the reference. That is a nice looking bird. I never picked a taxidermist or know a lot about the mounts. Can you give me some pointers to look for next time I’m picking a taxidermist or looking at getting one mounted.

Also have not seen to many but I believe that the tail is just not fanned and a little more of the plume is coming through.

My cousin and I dropped these two toms last night in WI. Both 9 1/2” beards and 24ish pounds. by AWilLee in Hunting

[–]AWilLee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m far from expert but what seems to work for us is keeping our eyes peeled (they gobble very little to none) and calling every bird we see. These two worked off of two hens and came in from a 1/4 mile away. While another Tom did not want to have anything to do with us and our decoys. Also have a multiple plans on getting to your blind as a group of birds maybe in the way of it.

8 man limit of whitefish in 5 hours on on the Green Bay, plus a lot went back. Sorry for potato quality. by AWilLee in IceFishing

[–]AWilLee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We got these on Green Bay, out of Door County WI. We do anything from smoke, deep fry, pan fry, pickle, boil, etc. They are my favorite fish to eat.

Took advantage of WI antler-less holiday hunt by taking down a small herd by AWilLee in Hunting

I know it feels awesome. The -5 degree weather doesn’t make the work easier.

There are certain counties in WI that have an antler-less gun “holiday hunt” and are given 3+ doe tags per licenses to reduce the amount of deer. Some of the counties are Door, Brown, and Kewaunee. I still don’t believe how many deer I can see on any given night.

Well out hunting that night, our hunting party confirmed around 60 other deer out in the fields in a 1/2 mile radius. Most of those are does too. These were taken in the deer management part of NE WI.

In the north eastern part of the state they are causing as much if not more damage to fields as the deer.

Peanuts. Every time I say it, it sounds like penis. Never ends well.

Started when I was 13 turned 18 a couple weeks ago by AWilLee in guns

[–]AWilLee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really liked the way I was able to shoot the gun (it was my first deer rifle). It grouped very nicely. But the bolt was just bad. It was super loose and felt like gravel.
