Happy Thanksgivings from down south. Me and Pearl finally had a good hunt. Drove to the hole, sat on the bike for 15 minutes cause we were early. Five minutes till shooting time I walked in and loaded my gun. 6:15 came and a minute later 3 wood ducks commit to the hole and 3 shots rang out. Pearl goes on command and brings back the bird. Tell her back and she brings the second, and repeated for the 3rd bird. Pic was taken at 6:19. Love it.

It was still kinda dark and these new phones take a few seconds to take it. She was moving, she hates picture taking. The pond pic was still dark.

Hunted Friday on the property seeing 6-8 deer, all does and fawns. Got out around 10 am and went to the camp. At noon I felt like I was relapsing and getting sick again. Here I am, and finally feeling ok and it’s Sunday morning. Didn’t hunt nor leave the camp.

Weird. Ive been fighting something for and 2 weeks myself but nothing to the extreme like you. It does come and go. Mostly sinus and loss of energy.

Well pearl woke me up around 4am insisting on me getting up and go hunting. Told her to lay down and soon the 5am alarm went off. Looked at weather and decided to take pearl on a duck hunt since she’s been cooped up w me since TG morning.

Decided to go to the river where we have had success, usually second split. Walked the 500 yards through the woods stopping twice to shit, I guess the antibiotics are getting to me as I had the bg’s. Got to the buck brush that lines the river and noticed the river was up from the recent rains. Walked out to our spot and waited 40 minutes to shooting time. Pearl sat in calf deep water and never moved. Heavy overcast and 12 mph north wind blowing, I hear wood ducks squealing but don’t see them till they jet past me doing Mach 30. I faced to the north and they had swung back surprising me and was out of range. Not much flew but what did if I was facing that way we could’ve managed a limit. Walked out after standing 30 minutes after the flight, tail tucked and made my way back to the truck. It’s been raining at the camp since 10 so looks like we getting the much needed
