Hey guys and gals. Its been awhile since I posted a kill shot so here we go. Hunted a local spot yesterday and managed to limit out (lost one bird on the hike back ). The morning was great with lots of GW decoying in but for some reason I couldn't connect with a single bird. Around 10Am after blowing through a lot of shells I started to get hits and nailed two wigeons and a gaddy on a flock that came in. Next up was a flock of wigeon and took two out that group followed by another single wigeon, a pair of drake green heads that I winged (lost him in the middle of the lake), and ended it with a spoonie. Took me all day to do it but managed a decent limit of quality birds with a less then great hike back through some nasty brush. On another note, just as I was gathering up all my honker dekes, I had a low flying group of dozen canadas fly right over me with my pants down.
Now this lake was never a super popular spot but now its literally nuts to butts out here. I used to not have to worry about sky busters and guys who would set up next to you but now the horrible crowd of people that makes duck hunting less then great infiltrated the local spot. Last week there were two dozen geese working towards my spread (still about 100 yards up above) and a group of guys decided to shoot towards them from across my spot literally 200+ yards away. I hope these guys go back to wister soon ;D
