Another sunny calm November day, be we are still out in the field putting in our time and being rewarded with a few birds. I headed up North this morning to see what was happening. Prior to legal shooting time we could hear geese all over but not many ducks. As legal shooting time came the geese took flight on the neighboring properties and it was a sight to see! The sky turned black with thousands of snows and specks but unfortunately they left the fields they were feeding and made a B line for their roost ponds paying us no attention. As the morning went on I kept calling at the small groups of specks but couldn't get them to cooperate. They would lock up and come bombing down to 80 yards and start to circle but they kept getting pulled off by the non stop cross flight of big groups of specks jumping between grinds. The ducks were few and far between but we managed to decoy 5 birds on three different ups and the guys shot 100%, killing every bird that came in. It was pretty slow but that's to be expected with the weather we are having!
