Sounds like you have a great bird on the wall with a good story to go along with it!

That is a pig of a blue wing. If swimming is all your option then you were out of options. You gotta do what you gotta do. Congrats on the bird!

Nice BWT and good job on the recovery. A lot of people these days wouldn't have put that effort in to recover that bird.
Even a broke clock is right twice a day.

Hardcore!
Good looking bird though.

You need to invest in a dog.
Congratulations on a pretty bird.

NTX - was looking at your stuff yesterday. Would really like to go with you for this Bird, but cant see making the trip to Dallas for it. If you or someone you know from your area would be in Houston anytime in the next few months - please let me know!I'd love to have you do this.

Thanks for the compliment! I have done shipping as well if you are interested, I know that adds a bit to the cost though. Another option closer to you worth checking out is Lowell Shapely in Houston at http://gulfcoastwaterfowl.com/ . Let me know if I can help you out. Thanks, Chris

Nice bird but IMO kinda cheesy mounting a bird and then putting a band on it from another bird. I would just leave it the way it is.

Looks like a good retrieve from the pic, but my guess is you ran the bank
