I hunted around Duvall Sunday, and saw more birds then I have all season.. was as good day.. water was rising and coming pretty quick but I just set up in a feild that was in about 1 foot of water.. put out decoys and had a blast.
If there is a bass in it I will catch it.

The water wasn't in the valley yet on Sunday. Shoulda seen it Monday afternoon or Tuesday.  :yike:

ummmmm....You will need a boat to jump shoot anything in the Snoqualmie Valley right now unless you want to jump shoot highway 203 and the corn fields everywhere are currently lakes.

 I know there was someone who lost a lot of decoys this flood.... GHG Canada shells, Bigfoots, GHG mallards. Sucks for who ever it was. I guess if your going to leave your decs out, you should at least pick them up during a flood. Because it was an early Christmas for any duck hunter driving on 203. Free pickings on the road side for at least 2 miles!

Maybe whoever it was learned to not leave their dekes out. Isn't that illegal anyway? If so I'm glad they lost them.
That'll learn them.

It is legal to leave them out on private land just not public.

hahah  so i'm not the only one who saw those dekes on the side of 203.. i was might tempted the last few days to stop and grab some but just felt bad.  for the last few days I've seen about 7 or 8 dekes still floating roadside mostly drake mallards that look pretty nice from a distance.

Between Fall City and Carnation? Line of trees on the tight turn with a blue locked gate? Those may have just been stored in the field next to the blind on private property, not left out for hunting if they are who I think they are-------
