I went into the season with expectations set exceptionally low on purpose, and it made for an outstanding year. I wanted to see how bad at duck hunting you had to be to only shoot 6 ducks a year. Turns out you have to be flocking terrible. I shot over 6 ducks ducks walking in to areas to pass shoot ...

Thanks PH. was kicking around the web site and discovered we can take the Bus from the station 1 mile up the road from our place in Chan. It's the same run they make for the State Fair. For $4.50 each, pretty certain we'll rock the public transit :-) Haven't been to a game in a few years and hadn't...

All I will say is to many A%% clowns on every point, along with being 3 in the state park and in 2 in a city park all no hunting areas to make wanting to hunt the lake for 2 birds worth it..... did watch some clown try to hunt out in the open out of a small Jon boat this evening all I will say is I...

It would seem that there are risks getting in and out of the layout as well as being in the layout itself. How much wind can handled without incurring s...

Banged out a limit this morning in the metro on a slough that hasn't seen more than a spoon bill or two in weeks, bunch of birds showed up yesterday evening. Surprised I didn't die in that wind today though. The 1/2 acre floating bog I was in broke free from whatever it's anchor was all season and a...
