Hunted Wister ended up with one hen widgeon and one drake pintail we packed up at 11. Had a real hard time getting birds to fully commit. Had a lot circling the decoys but they always stayed at that perfect height where you cant kill them.
Lots of sky busting out there as well I am sure that plays a role in how high they were flying. One guy a dyke over killed 3 birds out of flocks I was working multiple times. I would be working the birds getting them in circling slowly committing and then boom he would sky bust it was a great strategy for him but frustrating for me. Got to love guys sending pellets 100 yards up at the snows as well lol. I was going to hunt on Sunday down there #35 draw but we are going to stay home. I have draws the next two Wednesday so I will hunt those dates. 5 draws in three weeks between me and the boys at Wister lol.
Gonna go to less than a dozen decoys next time, the birds seemed decoy shy for sure. That jerk rig sure does get their attention though.
