Finally.....after 20 yrs
« on: November 13, 2012, 08:05:10 PM »
I've been hunting for 20 yrs.  For the past 8 years my hunting buddy and I have been heading east to try and get a Drake Redhead, one of the few birds We had not managed to take.  That streak has ended!  It was cold, snowing and couldnt have been better.  Will never forget it!

I saw one of those sunday come in all by his lonesome. He was right at the edge of my decoys swimming in front of me so I decided to wait til he faced me and then scare him up to shoot him. I'm still kicking myself on that decision. Really hard!

Man I missed two of them last Saturday that flew right into our decoys. Wished I would have at least knocked one of them down.
