    Wolf Update

    That Wolf that made its way to Cali from Oregon got whacked by a car. Sounds like he made it down to around Kern before some Yuppie likely hit him with their Electric Car. I actually admired him. All this way solo and people concerned a Hunter or Rancher would shoot him. Instead, he likely got...

    Jan. 16th: Interesting Day

    I worked my dog on a private pond. The owner was out with a couple of friends. This pond is typically straight divers and some Teal. This season, we had everything come in. Mostly Gadwalls today with some Teal and a few Spoonies. It was warm down there. Not much wind. I was not expecting much...

    Wister-Jan. 2nd

    We ran about two dozen decoys and a couple of MOJOs. Ended up pulling the MOJOS. It was a slow day for a good number of hunters today. We got into the Spoonies but had zero opportunities at other big ducks. Here is a sunset picture. John

    Wednesday

    My partner with the low draw at Wister was a no go. Worked a private pond just North of Wister. Did not hear a lot shooting going on at Wister. The Teal seemed to like us and responded well to the call. One big Drake Gad. Otherwise, Greenwings which is good for me. I like them. Not a lot of...

    Duck Opener

    I hunted an area North of Wister. This spot is normally a diver pond. Today, we had everything coming in. Pins, Redheads, Widgeon, Mallard and tons of Ringnecks. We ran about 50 decoys. I called and worked my dog for the owner. The ducks came in on the call really well and came in hot. The Pins...

    Wister-Jan. 26th

    Wister was packed. 80 plus on the sweatline. Wind was up and there were some ducks buzzing around. We had fun and the dogs had a great time. Mix of Teal, Pin and Spoonies. Never saw a Snow all day. That was highly unsual. Beautilful sunset. John
