2008-2009 season
Well, you missed one of the greatest duck hunts ever. Everyone at the
club shot limits on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. In addition we shot 4
Specs and 2 Snows. One Mallard and 2 Specs were banded. We shot
mostly Mallards and Teal. On Friday morning and afternoon, there
were.....just on conservative accounts at least 5,000 ducks and geese
sitting in our rice checks. If you have ever seen a flurry of Snows
getting up...that is what our rice fields fields surrounding our two blinds
looked like. I shot my limits on Friday in 15 minutes...and that is
because I was being very picky about which birds I wanted...Greenheads and
Teal. I made a mistake and shot a Gadwall that I thought was a
Mallard...low light conditions.
And....to top it off. We sat around playing dominoes and replaying
our shots while drinking the BEST BEER I have ever drank. You could not
have picked a better beer to give me. It was perfection! Thanks.
I attached a a couple of photos of Thursday's take. the ten year old
boy is my cousin's husband and her son. Two weeks ago he shot his first
duck...a banded bull Sprig. Thursday, he shot his first limit, (his
father's also), his first goose, Mallard, (he actually shot two with one
shot), Teal, etc. He is one fired up 10 year old.

Yellow lab is Nellie---She made 48 retrieves this weekend.
I suppose she deserves a mention.
