best day ever (updated,Round 3, final day)
« on: January 19, 2013, 01:41:55 PM »
Thought it might be tough today as we got to our spot a little late due to slow pokes on icy roads. Got in right at hours and they were already there. We jumped them and they never gave us a chance to even drag the deeks out of the bag. 15 minutes later, we were done. Have never seen that many birds continuously pouring into a spot while being shot up. Got our birds and backed out real fast and they just kept coming. Only bummer for the day was having it over so fast, and not being able to keep shooting! Will be back tomorrow!

Went back for round 2 this morning with 3 shooters this time. Almost the same results as yesterday. Had a 3 man limit by 8:30! They weren't pouring onto the pond quite as hard as yesterday but had a constant stream of birds coming in. The fog really makes them commit, pretty impressive. Taking my 11 year old nephew in there tomorrow to see some action. He's not hunting, just along for the ride. He is doing hunters ed this spring/summer and I want him to go out and see some birds taken and the dog work, he's going to love it. Probably the last day I'll hunt all season so hopefully its as good as the last couple. Its been a great way to end the year.

sorry for the terrible pic, didn't realize it was blurry and REALLY tough to see the birds among the leaves.

So final day of the season for me I believe. Took my nephew Kobi out for his first duck hunt. It was brief to say the least, but he loved it and I think he's hooked! Bonus of the day was my first banded bird. Kobi thought that it was awesome and is super excited to hear it came from.

Just submitted it on the website, looks like it was banded on Sauvie Island, down on the Columbia back in 2010.
