This season was one to put in the record books

as the worst in recent years for us. Total take this year was 7 geese (which we targeted more than ducks) 6 ducks (only hunted 3 days for them). I spent 42 days hunting geese and had many days not even seeing one

as opposed to last year We took 28 in 30 some odd days.

Positive outlook on the season is that:
I have a yellow lab puppy that has suprised my expectations in the blind & in the boat. She is to be my bestest huntin partner in retirement.
I was able to hunt with my friends & enjoy many a relaxing visit after the days hunt on my friends farm, he would tell me when the geese came on the property & I would promptly put the stalk on them from the house!!!
I was fortunate to meet 2 members of this board (which they encouraged me to join) Pete (gasman) & rePete (lo97ram) are some good guys. Hope that next season we will be able to partake in some slaughters!!! (limits)
Good luck to all this coming season. Jim Sr
