There are probably 20 or more that are not in the picture. When you are forced to start packing for a move you begin to realize how much you have.

I hear that, it is a fun conundrum to have though.

Indeed it is. Getting stuff boxed up just in case, bought some totes a different color so I know which ones my calls are in.

If not for my car accidents I sure would have liked to have tried fly fishing, not tying though, my eyes are bad enough as is!

Thankfully, no. LOL I have never been a collector of anything. My call collection, after 40+ years of turkey hunting, would probably be laughable to most of you guys.

I have the addiction.  Mine is a little more focused on specific call and striker types.

I have enough Calls + Strikers for an Army- LOL!

Which Gun

I have a problem with fishing tackle and rods. I'd be lost with that many strikers.

I have been collecting one thing or another my entire life, started as a child collecting football cards and was still collecting those until they started to disrespect the anthem and the flag and then I stopped and won't even watch or wear any sports merchandise anymore until they start to use their heads again.

I have a large movie collection over the last 20 some odd years and of course turkey calls and books as well as books on The American Revolution.

The one thing I have not seemed to be able to collect though is my own hair!

Nothing wrong with that. I know I was going to get a Mesquite call from Noel Gonzales before he passed, (I was not on his list but had intended to contact him) I have to find somebody else to make me one, liked the idea of him making it because he was from the area where it grows and had such a great reputation with that wood in particular and of course others. I some sound files I had heard of his calls as well. I also would like to get a couple of Holly calls in the future as well.

I am not there yet, maybe for a couple of squads.


I have to go fishing this week, I do not have a lot though. Have you ever used one of those fishing backpacks? I have been thinking of getting one and since I am going to have to be on crutches for a bit after my surgery on my foot on the 29th I am really tossing the idea around.
