4-6 in Redwood according the that map. LOL. I can't wait for tomorrow morning, migrating ducks/geese are going to have blown way off course from that wind. Look for specks, snows etc as a common sight tomorrow am. Last time I hunted a mega wind we had a flock of specks in the kill hole at first light.

Supposedly close to 3/4 million ducks on the Rice Lake refuge this week. Surely some of them are hitting the surrounding lakes. Gotta think there's a good shoot to be had.

Close to 6"-8" of snow in the Iron Range and into the Arrowhead from weather observer reports I've seen.

Was out until 10am in the west metro. No movement of birds that I could see. Whiffed on a couple of geese and all the ducks were rafted in the middle of the pond I was hunting. Nasty conditions, but felt good to feel a chill again. Gonna try a field spread tomorrow I think and see if I have any better luck.

I don't think they leave that lake and have no reason co. I've never heard of good hunting around the surrounding lakes.

Specks are here all the time anyways. There is a reason we bought speck decoys and calls. Probably had 15 flocks fly over last Sunday.
