Winds not bad. just one duck taken. new choke and some hevishot #2's worked very well, dropped like a rock at 50 yards.
Get the feeling that the pond I was at just not a real duck hangout. kind of a duck baptism today, lol. New Waders worked well. New Jacket not waterproof. oh well. Looking at my Nova pump gun, all wet, the surrondings, really it all felt good.

It was raining here..if it was snowing I'd have gone hell or high water..plus I was planning on hunting a lake..if I was hunting private I'd have been ALL over it...just didn't feel like competing with 6 foot waves...can't afford a surfboard right now.

i went out. me and 2 other guys fought the frezzing rain and some hard blowing wind. we got 3 redheads and 2 mallards. but the wind made for a fun ride back to the ramp.

Hunted your neck of the woods cuttinreds. Wind was fierce on the way back in. Had Pintails, Wigeons, and a Shoveler. No redheads to be seen until the ride back.

Blowing snow and a couple of gusts of about 30mph, but it was great. Not a limit but I think we ended up with 10 birds between the 3 of us.
No bad days hunting
