Title: Ducks for Sunday
Post by: Wagner on November 28, 2009, 01:46:49 PM
  We have a acess to a farm with lots of sitting ducks. Put out a winduk today and got a few. Tommorow we are going earlier and putting out some decoys. We have room for one more hunter that can call, we are new :P. The propety is in Snohomish county so let me know if you can help us. The farmer says there is hundreds of mallards every morning we saw plenty around 10am.

I told myself I was going to work on steelhead this year since I missed most of it this year, but every chance I have to get out is really dedicated to ducks. I'm not giving up on ducks until I get a band!! additionally, I want mount worthy birds. a Woodie, pin, harli, and old squaw are on the list for this year ;) I got a decent pin drake a couple weeks ago, and located my harli, but the drake was a little young and I'm waiting for a seaduck trip I'm taking to hopefully bag the harli and old squaw together.

Yeah hear ya on staying hunting ducks. But live 2 mins off the skykomish river and there is some good fish running, so kinda hard to resist when it is right out your door! :)

"PJB"  Does that stand for peanut jelly and butter?? :)

I think I'll take the steelhead, the family likes them better than ducks.....  I once got a double on geese while trolling for salmon on the Umpqua River in OR, best of both worlds!  The birds don't seem to flare away from fishing boats as much as they do camoed ones.

Congrats on the birds.

I'm about 15 minutes away from the sultan launch. Didn't catch one myself seen a few caught though. Was more or less goofing around with my fly rod. Would love to hit the river in a sled. Been awhile since I've been out on that stretch. :fishin:

man the hunting was hard and slow today. tossed 120 deeks for a reward of one immature wood duck. at least i got my first wood duck, LOL. Hard work on the water though... given, we passed up a lot of pass shooting, but even if we had gone after everything we probably wouldn't have had more than a total of 6 birds between the 2 of us.

Yeah did some checking around and seems a lot of birds flew south. The normal holes that hold a lot of birds were empty. But any day hunting or my case fishing is worth it.
