Post by: Dustin07 on March 02, 2010, 02:34:26 PM: seems like there are a high number of scoters that are banded. maybe it's a higher ratio? only scoter hunt I went on this year yielded a banded drake.

Post by: Dustin07 on March 02, 2010, 04:41:56 PM: it was a good launch. that's not my boat, a friend took us out. my only bay worthy boat is a 20ft lund. it is painted green, but I would never molest it with camo. I need to figure out how to build a nice removable blind for it by next season though because I'd like to spend as much time in the big bays as I do in the tidal flats and marshes. that sea ducking is addictive.

You are so right! These days all you need is $20 and a computer to become a "seasoned duck hunter".

Post by: h2ofowlr on March 20, 2010, 08:18:42 PM: The good thing is the seasoned duck hunters can pick them out pretty easily 95% of the time. ;) The non-seasoned duck hunter posts a pick of fakes not knowing better. :bash:
