11-28-12

Today I guided Louie on a duck hunt. We got into the blind and had overcast skies and a slight breeze. There were a few birds leaving the rice and heading back to the refuge but the flight was pretty dismal. Right off the bat we killed a couple teal and got back doored by a few others and then things went quiet. We sat patiently and when the rain came so did the birds, but when the rain stopped, so did the flight. We stuck it out until 10:00 and then called it quits, ending the hunt with 7 ducks and a speck. Not exactly what I had in mind but that is how it goes sometimes. Hopefully the Northern ducks are on their way down!
