It's Wigeon... dang man you made it harder to spell than it really is! Nice spreadsheet, I think I need one of those too... I have my data scribbled on a DU calendar.

Pretty obvious that Gadwalls were the bulk of our early split success. Mallards historically have been a mid-December and later bird. Of the 85 ducks and geese harvested so far this season, the break down of retrieves by dawgs is:

35 Remi
44 Rusty
6 Guest dawgs

Very nicely done ya'll!!!!!! up

I think this for me is the first year I have ever hunted "EVERY" single day of the first split...

Today...is the day I figure out all my totals, I know we shot consecutive limits every day this week...of 3 to 4 limits (in my group) Shot another 3 man limit yesterday to finish off the first split. smile

For some warm weather everyone looks to have done pretty good! smile
