JeffB Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 For my wedding I went to Feet Farm and bought bait buckets and started putting in some of my favorite jig heads and hooks till I felt I'd spent enough on each. When I got home I took out a black magic marker and wrote our names and aniversary date on the bucket. You wouldn't believe how impressed the groomsmen and father of the bride were. You could take the time tie some lindy rigs for them. Collect wine corks and write your names and wedding date nicely on the corks then fill the corks with your favorite jigs. I had one guy in my group that didn't fish so I threw a couple pair of leather gloves at him and he was happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Foss Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 These are some great ideas. As the wedding photographer, I sometimes get asked advice on this kind of stuff, and I'll be filing these cool ideas away for next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muskie456 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 I got married in the spring. I negotiated with a game farm for the rest of the pheasants they had in the pin. We went out and had a ball. It was fun to hunt the day before your wedding. Funny thing that was close to ten years ago and I haven't been since.

BP2 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 The best place to get customized duck or goose calls is C&S Custom Calls. Just do a google search and you'll find him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icehousebob Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 My #1 son gave each of his groomsmen a Leatherman tool with their names engraved on them. That low life, red haired, (bad word) he married left him while he was in Afghanistan, but the guys still have the Leatherman tools. Some things last longer than others.

rattlem'up Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 The duck calls are in the process of being made! I would have gone with c&s calls but little to spendy for me to buy 6 calls. He does great work though. The guy sent me a sample of the call done the way I had asked and it turned out beautifully! I'll be sure to post up pics when the calls are done.
