I'd take those 4 over a pile of coon any day.

Nice work.

The part of the story I find compelling is the local Indians apparently preferred their own native "tobacco" plant over the Virginian strain.

I've never had blue crabs... so that makes us even I guess Buzz.

Either purchase or goven one or research and cut one.

With Google Earth it makes it easy to see open country!

Once you have one use is the best way to keep it.

Ive done all those kinda things in past, hang sausage, weiners. Spacing on most smoker and oven racks dont work well for some size item The racks I use now are actually called cooling racks. Only thing I would like better is if they were stainless. I have them in two sizes some fit smoker some my commercial warmer. They are 1/4 mesh anf I can smoke or dry pretty much anything on them. I find it simpler for way I do things. Your right about cleaning can almost require pressure washer. These 3 in photo I took in slop sink with stiff brush.

I like to use clear vinyl tubing and #9 wire. I put a countersink on the end of the tube that will accept the wire, and I taper the end of the wire on a belt sander. The taper is about the same as the business end of a chopstick and rounded blunt at the very tip. Doing it this way ensures that the wire will get started on the vinyl collar and it makes for a very tight connection. I like the fact that I can push the wire in the collar so it's good and tight, and then simply rotate the collar in either direction if the snare needs the angle of the dangle adjusted. I think this setup would probably work with #11 wire also.

I will ask my wife .

Lots of folks use cereal rye as a cover crop. Hard to tell the difference until it starts to stem.

How do you set them, do you stand on the springs? That can ruin the springs, mine seem fine. I have not noticed any issues. I will go set one and see if mine seem slower than they should be.

You know Im not sure what the little pump is. Just now looked at it again after see your post. I didn't open it so I'm not sure if it is diaphragm or some type rotorery? I also have a 12 volt suction pump I saved off an old ambulance. I had it rigged up at one time and was using gallon jars from deli. Was to much messing around with lids for small batch items. I do wish I could find wide mouth Mason style jar in gallon size. But most every thing I marinate I can get in half gallon jars.

This is pump in.litte jar unit.


This is the 12v pump I snagged off old ambulance. Was actually thinking of getting rid of it and out of my way. About time I do the piddler n me would regret that. I have we a hard time not see value or use for to many things.
