i got 1
havent been able to find any area to hunt around my area

Dustin07 · « **Reply #5 on:** November 10, 2009, 03:33:35 PM »

does that 100 include any coot? with a 7 bird limit... that's at least 15 days in the field already

with geese included, looking at like 9 days min? unless you include coots.

h2ofowlr · « **Reply #6 on:** November 10, 2009, 04:43:47 PM »

That's ducks and geese included. Total waterfowl.

Dustin07 · « **Reply #7 on:** November 10, 2009, 04:45:19 PM »

Whitenuckles · « **Reply #12 on:** November 10, 2009, 06:09:57 PM »

Congrats!!!! Thats a lot of huntin'. I thought I was on a role with 56 in the bag. I think I need to get my priorities strait.

Those are crazy numbers I'm just passed 20 and thought I was doing well. Way to go.

carpsniperg2 · « **Reply #16 on:** November 10, 2009, 08:13:13 PM »

wow 18 for me no geese yet just ducks only got out 5 times

AKBowman · « **Reply #17 on:** November 10, 2009, 08:24:13 PM »

I've been averaging 3.3 birds/hunt on very public land hunts.

h2ofowlr · « **Reply #18 on:** November 10, 2009, 08:54:07 PM »

Only hunted private fields 3 times this season. The rest were on public spots. Need more northerns down to hit the other spots.

Dustin07 · « **Reply #19 on:** November 11, 2009, 10:19:55 AM »

I'm hoping to get three days in a row out this weekend. Friday will be up north, start with puddlers, then possibly venture into the salt again now that I have my card printed (see if I can't find that harli), then Sat and Sun stay home and hunt private land in south king county... even with 3 limites i'll be a long ways away from 100 though! (unless I can get into some coot and snipe,hehe).

teal101 · « **Reply #20 on:** November 11, 2009, 01:03:09 PM »

3 days 16 birds. 6 on the opener, 10 the next weekend. A good start for me with minimal days in the field. Gotta get out more!!! Going this weekend, got a few spots that should produce limits lined up.

Watz_Hunt · « **Reply #21 on:** November 11, 2009, 01:06:49 PM »

i have been 3 times and i still suffer from CHS........

Ragged Outdoors · « **Reply #22 on:** November 11, 2009, 09:40:28 PM »

Until Sunday (18 birds, 8 hunters) we have had a pretty good year so far. Before Sunday I think we averaged 35 birds with 5.5 hunters per trip, all public.

I don't do the large groups anymore. I had a spot down south years back where we would hunt 15-20 guys in a long custom pit blind that was in the middle of a flooded corn field. We used about 1000 duck decoys and by the time they hit the ground, you didn't know who's bird was who's. It was a good shoot. The group usually was limited out by 10:00 or 11:00. A large pile of ducks.

Ragged Outdoors · « **Reply #24 on:** November 11, 2009, 09:54:25 PM »

Sounds like a blast, but you're right it can be a lot of work. For us the hardest part was communication. It was raining and blowing, so everyone had hoods on and we were in laydowns, so telling everyone where birds were and calling shots was pretty difficult. Definitely fun every once in a while though.

carpsniperg2 · « **Reply #25 on:** November 11, 2009, 10:06:07 PM »

that pit blind deal sound awsome to me

General Disarray · « **Reply #26 on:** November 12, 2009, 07:16:18 AM »

Good to see someone banging them up over there. Been tough around here so far, need another push of fresh birds.

CP · « **Reply #27 on:** November 12, 2009, 07:35:08 AM »

Season started out good for me and has gotten progressively worse:

7, 7, 7, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0 = 25

Somebody’s been out there educating the ducks (maybe it’s me).

I got 38 ducks and 1 goose so far this season. I made a goal to shoot 200 ducks this season I'm on track so far.

yelp · « **Reply #30 on:** November 12, 2009, 06:26:00 PM »

I past the 100 shots mark ahwhile ago.

That should be 100 ducks/geese you would think right..Not.

duckmen1 · « **Reply #31 on:** November 12, 2009, 06:50:28 PM »

do you plan to eat 100+ ducks
if so what is the secret recipe that makes them so great
i wrap mine in bacon with pepper and they turn out fine
any other suggestions

yelp · « **Reply #32 on:** November 12, 2009, 06:54:14 PM »

Pepper stick duck jerky or summer sausage is the only way to fly for that many.

Trap shooting "clay" birds???

Ragged Outdoors · « **Reply #34 on:** November 12, 2009, 07:52:16 PM »

hey duckmen1, we made some duck last nite and it was awesome, first time trying it this way. Cut them into strips like BK chicken tenders, bread 'em and deep fry 'em and right after you take them out of the oil put them on a paper towel for a minute to get some of the oil off and throw them in a bowl of buffalo sauce. After you take 'em out of the sauce they are kind of crunchy, kind of chewy and taste just like hot wings

Snowgoose1 · « **Reply #35 on:** November 12, 2009, 09:11:59 PM »

Ragged, we do them like you said too. Crunchy and dip them like hot wings. Way to go H20!!! Serious good food.

I fillet the breasts, season to taste, add a little olive oil, and then grill to medium rare.
