Getting out early for opener?

[vandeman17]

I've always just spent the night in the duck blind this year will be no different.  Maybe just a bit wetter.

Done that plenty of times as well and also thought about a tarp. Forecast has changed a bit and looking like it COULD be dry tonight and through early morning hours. I am fine hunting in the rain but just don't want to sit in it for hours waiting.

Yep go early. I usually pack a small tarp with and make a little shelter to try and stay dry under.

I was thinking about that this year.

Definitely worth doing if you're gonna be there a while.

Nope, not early for me.  I'll be in the boat, so can move if need be. Hunting close to home on the Columbia as I have to make it a quickie with work at 11.  Scouted up a few nice spots the past two weeks, but who knows what the weather is going to do to the birds.

I'm stuck baby sitting my 5 month old niece and 3 month old daughter with my wife so I'll be trying my best to sleep in. If I was hunting I'd be up early. My 2 cents.

With a 5 and 3 month old you'll be up before anyone else!

I just pulled the plug for the opener.  70mph winds for my hunting area.  I've got enough openers under my belt and am retired and can hunt anytime.  I see no reason for risking not hunting ever again by hunting in those type of conditions.

I'll be out there getting soaked nice and early... the way I look at it is that you have a warm shower to go home to after it. So embrace the misery, blood and feathers!!!

Just drove through skagit hq and there is already a truck and empty trailer in the parking lot.

I heard a guy ask a clerk at outdoor emporium today if they carry marshland camo umbrellas... true story.

[bulldogs40]
