Default Ducks!

Just got back from a short little duck hunt this morning. Finished my finals yesterday and went out this morning to throw out some dekes on a flooded field. I've been hunting this area for many years, but I have to say, this is the best I've ever seen it. I had mallards raining down on me. I was by myself (which was probably good, cause my shooting wasn't too impressive) and was able to shoot my limit by 7:16. Wow! All mallards except for one shovler hen that tricked me. She was right in there w/ the mallards, I swear. Really guys.

As a bonus, the Clackamas river is only 10 yrds away. Can you say: steelhead? Had about 100 geese land out in the field after I'd loaded everything in the truck. Might need to work on them too.

I think I'll be out there for the next few days. I know there are several of you out there who I owe trips. This might be a good time to cash in on that. Can't promise that it will be as awesome as it was this morning, but I think it should hold up for the next few days anyway. If you're interested let me know and we can set up something. See ya.

Ben
You dont owe me a trip, but if you got a spot open I can shoot holes in the sky with the best of them.

If you need a grunt to pack dekes or the like let me know, I will probably be just hanging around the house this weekend.

Birdhunter,

I'd trade ya for some of that extra time you have! What do ya need??

I'd love to get out during the weekdays like that! Two days on the weekend just isn't enough to get all the hunting and fishing in! Work just seems to get in my way! :tongue:

Wow, sounds like your living right. Makes me crazy just thinking about it. I know it's hard to remember to pick a bird out and aim when they are thick like that. Wish I had that problem.
