Anyone going for ducks?

Got permission to hunt a private pond loaded with waterfowl.
Should be fun, will post pixs. Good luck, John

    Hi John,
     
    Hope all is well with you this season!  I'm going out to our blind on the bay tomorrow morning for a bit.  Fourth time out this year (once at Geneva, twice on the bay).  Hopefully the Mag10 can fold some ducks.  After that, it's off to the streams I go to get my line wet.  Need some smoked steelhead for bear camp!
     
    Good luck!

    Good luck Tim. Dress warm, its going to be a chilly one.
    Been thinking of getting a steel for the smoker also. Bear,beer, camp always love them. ;)

    Ok Dave. Mika had one retrieve. I only had one duck come in and it was moving, a ringneck.




     
    That was one fast bird. Very little shooting going on around me. Did see a few good size flocks of geese but no where near me. They are in the cut corn fields I guess.
    Had fun , hope you all did too. God bless, John

    pretty duck,I've never got one,only woodies,malards,black ducks,teal,blue and green,and one lone female pintail.The corn fields of Ohio offer geese and fat malards,and that where I hunt mostly,would love the hunt P.I.and shoot a bunch of odd ducks,yesterday I bow hunted Ohio for deer and wonder why? Saw and heard flock after flock of geese till after dark,I may have to talk Jr. into a few more goose hunts and bonus malards

    john, nice duck. sure do miss hunting them, but again this year, i could not motivate myself to get my stamps. still scan the skies looking for them every morning though. guess i am destined to get back into it once my daughter starts college.
