I have a dream...
Or perhaps a vision, or nightmare or false hope or whatever it is that one hangs on to when the N wind is blowing and there's weather coming and it's late October.
With varied success across the bottoms and further South, just what will tomorrow bring? 3 ducks in the Ditch today, all teal, and quit by 930AM. 3 ducks out of the South Ditch today from 1PM to close (gaddy & 2 mallards) and no one hunting at the G'Ditch (we don't think). Who knows whats gonna happen. I'll tell you this much, turned down a "on the X" goose hunt for the morning with promise of completion by 9AM just to hunt this wind and what appears to be a good push of new birds. Observed just a small push of birds today until the clouds came in, then it was prevalent, maybe just cause we could see 'em with the clouds in the sky. Just after dark the captain of the Hay Ditch was giving me play-by-play on Geese and Ducks piling into fields near his killin' spot. Also mentioned specks and snows, those are definitely, without question, new birds.
We are fully committed for tomorrow with breakfast and a croc of chili for lunch. Hoping to get to the chili! The skies are supposed to clear by morning and don't know if that's good or bad. Wind is favorable and a bit more "workable" than today with those gusts we had up to 50mph. A guy can live with 15MPH but 50's a bit out of control. Tomorrow should be a good shootin' day. Got a funny feeling it will turn into the first all day "rot" of the season. And don't worry...we will be discussing the 930AM leaving of a certain hunter, who knows better than to leave from the Ditch on a weather day like we had today. Didn't even have to common courtesy to roll back up there once the clouds came in. Amazed he's still married with that extremely low level of COMMITMENT!
