No Ducks
« on: January 02, 2012, 07:06:09 PM »
Hunted one of my favorite spots today near the Long Beach area.  Only ducks I saw tried to land by me as I was picking up my dekes.  :(  Go figure, sit there for three hours of nothing then have them attack when I'm unarmed.  :)  That is one of the reasons I love duck hunting.  Have one more trip this year, hopefully with better results.

Never fails setting up decoys or picking them up always ducks flying.

Not to many ducks in the last week for me either  :dunno: More ducks should be coming soon though  :tup:

only saw 2 pintails for 3 hours of sitting in the grays harbor mud flats this afternoon, both of which should have been easy shots, and both of which i missed terribly.

those were the only 2 "good' ducks i saw the whole time, absolutely nothing flying despite the wind and rain storm that was blowing in.
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun

Shot 1 mallard and a pintail at Ridgefield.

There are almost no ducks setting on the refuge.
It's not true that I am good for nothing---I can be used as a bad example!!

Yup....best time to see ducks is when you stop hunting.  :bash: Good luck with the rest of the year  :tup:
