Hello again all my technologically advanced and well connected waterfowl enthusiast friends. It's official, the season has opened. We have until December to keep the blog full and active. We will see how long it lasts.
The first morning was a bag of nothing. The plus side is that we laid down a handful of groups but were not set up for the South Wind. They went all around us and away from us landing on the water. We did fire a marginal shot and even with 3 guns we couldn't find any feathers when the smoke cleared. Lots of first light shots around the area that we could hear. Saw a fair amount of ducks moving and some Can's too. All staying on the river. Seems like there are more birds than we have been accustomed to the last couple years on opening weekend. Things slowed quickly and we were OUT by 930AM with nothing to clean. The dogs got some exercise, the Polaris got the cob webs cleaned out and we're off to the races. Another season upon us and with it comes early mornings, over-thinking, blogs, stories and fights with the wife. Ah, the life of a waterfowler! That's all I got for now, check back for the latest and greatest and thanks for all the hits.
