Today I guided Glenn and Chuck for ducks. We got to the blind 20 minutes before shooting time and could hear birds in the air but could not see them through the thick fog. As it neared legal shooting time the North wind started to pick up and a clear spot developed above us. Right at legal shooting time we had a pair of sprig come in and the guys nailed them both. Before the dog could get them both back to the blind we had 3 widgeon drop in and we killed them all. Shortly thereafter a pair of widgeon dropped in and the guys smoked them to. It was fast and furious but we were soon fogged in again and the waiting game began. Every time that a hole would open up in the fog the birds would start funneling into the field and we would put the smack down. By 7:15 we had 19 birds but got fogged in again and had to wait until 7:45 for our last pair of birds. It was a great hunt and nothing short of fast and furious. Hopefully the trend that we have going will continue!
