Title: Late Season Quail
Post by: Fishnfowler on January 18, 2013, 10:24:00 PM: I've been getting after them the last couple of weeks. Two weeks ago, I couldn't miss and took home 7 with 11 shots. Today not so much, with only two birds for 14 shots. Same gun different day.

I didn't see anybody else and had a mocking rooster get up at my feet in open country. I'm working this weekend, so this was my last go around with upland. October is a long way off.

That is a 20, roosters closed last week. I'm guessing he knew that and gave me the best look at one I've had all year.
