Things May Be Turning Around On Bs

Finally got into some birds that actually wanted to play. Had the opportunity to be limited out by 8:30.but thanks to the fine shooting exhibition put on by all involved we were only able scratch out 14 by 11am before we decided to call it. All gaddies, didn't see a single mallard and only seen one small flock of gwt before shooting light. Did see a few hooded mergs but never really offered us a shot. All in all had a good morning spent with good friends and so far has been the best hunt I've had this season.

I was wondering when it would happen. Lower Taney has been holding a decent number of gadwals for a week now. They've got to be looking for some safe water.

Been seeing them for about a week now, just couldn't get them to work worth a darn. With the lack of cover and birds that have been around for alil while they pick out things that don't look right quick, like the bumps on the mud flats that weren't there before .

Good work John

Every piece of duck hunting equipment I own is completely covered in mud. It's all starting to blend in pretty good to the surrounding areas I've been hunting.

That's a framable picture... awesome!

Thanks Phil. I think I can handle the mud on the equiptment better than all the sand that seems to find its way into everything.

Nice hunt John P. Gadwall are good, I got two Friday morning on a Sac river hunt setting up on a riffle. They made a nice dinner that evening. Mud you say Duane? hahahah Still iced in on ponds but when the frost and slight freeze goes off the fields it is yucky here too.
