Last three times we went to our wetlands to do some pre-season work, we saw a lot more ducks than this morning. However, we ended up with five including the first two ever for little "Emma" a friends diminuitive yellar female. Very sweet girl with a ton of go and prey drive, she's going to be a good one.

Emma on the way out to her first ...



She's got it and on her way back ...



Cappy and me outside Carol's blind. Carol was under the weather and this was the first opener she's missed in 15 years.



Back home with the four yellar dawgs: (L to R) Ria, Emma, Remi and Cappy. Remi stayed home with Carol this morning. Here she was using her feminine charms to make me promise her a hunt tomorrow morning ... By the way ... couldn't be happier with the Jeep's perfomance with the new mudders on ... went through some really ugly areas without so much as a wiggle.



After a wash down and lunch, the three tired dawgs that hunted this morning decided to take a snooze together ...



End of report.

Nice pics Cappy. I bet your friend was super pumped about his girls first retrieve

I love the pile o dogs.

congrats on the good hunt, sorry to hear Carol missed the opener. Lots of yellow there

Sweet pick Cappy. Luv the three amigos crashing together.

Looks like a good day and it made me feel good to see Cappy back out and going with you.

I hope your wife gets better.
