well it was icy and cold. And very snowwy on sunday.
Saturday was very tough as we were set up near some guys that scraped at everything... mergansers that they let float, GEs, geese, cormorants... you name it, it got shot at. Most of the time at 75-100 yards. YIKES!!!
We ended up with 4 ducks and a goose before we had had enough of that and took off. Spent the rest of the day jump shooting for a couple more birds.
Sunday i went back to the same spot as before as i really didnt have a better place to go and the same clowns were there again. So i stuck around for an hour. saw 2 flights of geese that didnt want to look and had one mallard working in until they opened up on their calls and blew him out of there. These late season ducks were so spooky. And the snow had most of the birds not moving so i went and did a little more jump shooting and ended up with 5 ducks to close out my season, including a banded drake mallard.
Tough last couple weeks but I can't wait for next season to do it again.
