Title: Got into some specs today!!!
Post by: BIGBULLBALLS on October 12, 2008, 08:46:27 PM
Myself, headhunter and another buddy snuck in on a flock of specs today and were able to kill some nice birds to mount.  First ever chance at the little clown faced buggers and pulled a couple of limits.  We figure these are California birds on their way south but got hung up here for a little too long.  Talk about a good opening weekend.  These birds were taken on the lower Skagit flats.

Looks like you guys nailed those suckers good!!   :tup:
Nobody seemed to believe me when I saw some last year.
Damn I am jealous.

Damn nice specs. I ran into a bunch down south the last 2 weekends. This last weekend, I just could not connect on a shot. Guess I should have spent more time on the clays this last year instead of on work!  ;) :chuckle:

I'll trade a basic open or closed reed predator call for a dried specklebelly skin if anyone is interested. I've got a friend who's looking for fly tying materials for his club.

Well done. We ran into a few specks as well on the opener.  The matures look great.
