That’s too bad. Hope this weather pushes them down. Thanks for the report.

Jim,

Duck hunting has been pretty brutal everywhere....I was told Wister averaged .6 of a duck Saturday (heard it wasn't any better today).....San J was below 1.0, if you take out ruddies, buffleheads, and coots.

I hunted the best club in the IV this afternoon and sat in the blind for over 4 hours without pulling the trigger till the last 45 minutes.....2 doubles on mallards and a single pintail gave me my 5 birds.....The owner got one shot and got 1 pintail.....Slowwww is an understatement.

Thanks Steve,Sam and I still had a great time getting the lake and our gear figured out.I haven been to Berrett since I was his age,sneaking in to fish for bass.We are going later this month and maybe this weather will push some birds.Meanwhile I see a trip to the desert in our future to work on some 30-40 yds fast passing shots.

The last time I hunted Barrett we had some fun pass shooting ruddies from the boat. We'd motor to a spot, cut the engine, and wait for those low fliers to speed on by at 30-40 yards. Not a typical duck hunt for sure but we had to make the most of it after having no action in the morning.

How many blinds does Barrett have open? I used to hunt it a lot years ago and stopped due to the last couple of years with low water.

13 blinds are open water is a little lower than last year. Get there early as they let you pick you chip for the lotto in the order you arrive.

wow, 13 is down. Last time I was there it was 18 and that was down from 20.

I do remember the chip lotto every morning. It could make or break your hunt.
