I have spent the off season working on the trash bag and tape method, I dont have river crest money over here. the key I have found is the tape, has to be good tape, the silver HVAC duct tapes works good

Scouting looks like more of an average BWT opener. Still week away- didn't see big buildup yet like last year. Saw only group of 8 birds yesterday flying. Nada on water, but wasn't out there @ first light

Rumor has it most of the rice fields in SETX are loaded up. We typically don't get any birds in the marsh until people run them out of the rice.
I'm with GK because I like salty old dudes.

Seen a few flocks down here in Victoria/Calhoun counties. Getting water pumped into our back ponds as we speak so hopefully theyll be back there come time for the opener.

saw more than a normal amount in early and mid august, but numbers as of today aren't quite what they should be in this area anyway. but we do have five days until opener and one day can make a world of difference with bwt.

We saw flocks with hundreds in them around Katy on opening of day of dove. Didn't see but 4 doves but massive flocks of teal were in the area.
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.

We saw a few hundred jump off the lake driving out to the dove field two days ago. It was around 5pm. I'm hoping by Saturday there will be more. I'm going to scout Thursday because I can't Friday.
Opening day the last two years has been the best of the three weekends.

Had zero teal until yesterday as I was roller chopping to open up water. About an hour into it I had about 50 birds land in the open water behind the tractor!! First birds of the season! Need a few more to show up before Saturday. The past few years the second weekend has been the knockout weekend
