Title: a Marlin Watkins....MASTERPIECE
Post by: jmck on October 19, 2010, 03:56:36 PM
Here is one I thought I was going to have to fight Bullock over. We were up at Marlin's, and he made the mistake of letting us in his storage cabnet.....you should have seen how long these ole rednecks played calls. Looked like two women in a half price sale at the mall ROTFLMBO!!!
We were both rambeling throught the calls when we both played this one....and we both wanted it. What a delimma!!!! And ole Watkins kinda had an eye on keeping it too----what a perdiciment. !!!!!
Bullock decided he really had no buisness spending the money ---after his theift of his vehicle----bad luck for him.....but great luck for me. Marlin slept on it that night and surprised me the next morning before we went to hunt---he decided to let it go south with us !!! Horray !!! Thanks Marlin---its one of those calls ya pick up and run....and ....you just know you have to have it.
Bullock---when ya think about missing getting this one---holler at me----I am always willing to send ya a picture of it !!! *lol* *lol* ROTFLMBO ROTFLMBO *lol*
Marlin---I appreciate you letting me get it !!!! This is one of those calls guys---its a real great sounding one no matter how you run it---it flat out has the sound.

Well Jeff, You went and opened Tim's wound. We both know that he liked that call bad and you walked with it.  Make it a ring tone on your cell phone and send it to Tim.  Hmmmm...Zumer didn't get a chance at it either.  What a gem on your part.  However, Marlin walks away with the prize. He now knows Cutter is a top notch turkey dog and all his work paid off thanks to you rednecks going first.  That sounds like a win-win to me.

Ole Bobble Head... I sure hope if it ends up in your bag, you protect it better than your GPS  *lol*

That's a heck of a caller Jeff!  Congrats on coming home with it!

Jeff, I would be glad to run that call in PA for ya while you and the Amara King have at it.  Might take it right to Zumer and let him run it too.  We would be glad to send it back with some blood on it...maybe.  We will even post some pictures without the dogs.  
We still do it the old fashion way...plenty of boot leather. ROTFLMBO


Tim, If your heading over to Jeff's this spring, bring your snakeboots, I hear he has some MONSTER snakes in his neck of the woods...even by his house.  If you don't stay with him the Chattanooga Choo Choo is a great place to stay.

Bob----if ya can get Bullock up there---I dont know how good his nose is compared to Cutters, but if he can bark anything near as loud as he snores---he will be able to bust up the flocks I am sure. He will scatter em every which way.
And Bobble Head----I have never slept so good knowing this call is MINE  *peep* ROTFLMBO *up* *lol*, AND YOU ARE RIGHT pORTER.....he would leave the call in sight in that game warden truck, and it would get stolen as easy as he is !!!! *lol*

I think this call has the potential of alot of flopping turkeys in it.
Yep----a fast trip would be in order to RETRIEVE this one for sure  *up*

Post by: Silverspur on October 22, 2010, 10:28:22 AM
Heck Jeff when you come to retrieve it buy a license and walk with us awhile.  We have no vehicles or dogs and the walk will get you in shape for your long spring seasons.  We could all bond on a PA fall turkey hunt. :grouphug:
