[font "Impact"][#ff4040][size 3]Good luck out there Jethro. Wish I didn't have to work or else I'd be hunting pheasants on some private land my buddy is going to. DAMN WORK!!!!!!! He says that the guy told him that his land is right next to a club and all the pheasants usually get pushed up into his fields. Maybe next weekend.[/size][/#ff4040][/font]

Thanks...
I'm working tonight so the public pheasent fields I hunt in Logan would be covered by the time I got there...
So I decided to chase the ducks...
We should go hunting sometime...
I hunt every weekend and Mondays...
That is if you can get the coveted kitchen pass....[

The weekend sucked...
Went out sat and mon...
Two birds Sat...
One Bird Mon...
Both days started cloudy then the sun came out and wind stopped...
Mon two hunters showed up next to me in 1A and started calling....
High balling at everything with a call that sounded sick...
Scared every thing away....[unsure][unsure]
Oh well I will try again next week in a different unit...

[font "Impact"][#ff4040][size 3]Don't you just love it when people do that. Well I will let you know when I can go out for sure.[/size][/#ff4040][/font]

I hunt ducks and geese also. But that I am not a god at. If you ever want to go let me know and we'll get together (open to anyone). Believe me, I'll make your wing shooting look good.
Not a duck shooting god.
We should get out again Jethro. How about Monday for a half again?

Monday sounds great...
Meet at the same spot at 0530...
The swans are here and a few are flying over the dike into 1A...
We could head out there if you like...
Let me know...

[font "Impact"][#ff4040][size 3]Hey Jethro or OEJ did you guys go out on Monday???? How did you guys do?[/size][/#ff4040][/font]
[signature]
I went out Monday...
OEJ was going to go but fell and hurt his knee...
It was windy as all get out...
But still managed to get 7 ducks and 2 Snow Geese...
Here are the pics..
5 Greenheads
1 Buck Pintail
1 Widgeon
2 Snow Geese
The widgeon came last...
I was trying for all greenheads but wind was howling and nothing could land so the widgeon dropped in and he became the 7th duck...

Awesome job! I wish I had been there. Next weekend...
How were the swan flying? Any more activity out of them?
[signature]
I was in area 9 but while I was driving back past 1A the swans were up and flying...
I saw one in a truck on Fri afternoon...
Going to take the wife out Sat afternoon and see if she can get her swan...
I will post after and report on how they are flying...

[font "Impact"][#ff4040][size 3]Now you had just made me jealous! Wish I could get a snow goose. I already have a spot on my wall for one of those. Great job. Snow geese and a buck pintail on the same day, now that is what I call a magnificent day out in the marsh.[/size][/#ff4040][/font]

There is more pintails in the bird Refuge than any other duck...
I could have shot all buck pintails in the decoys...
If you could shoot 7 pintails....
