Badass Marcus! I'm hitting the Ohio on Weds and Thurs with a buddy at one of his spots.

Crazy how many birds are here right now.

Hunted tonight close to home and had 5,000+ ducks in the air at one time, several thousand geese, and blew a shot on a specklebelly. Joker caught me off guard, came in from behind me silent until he was right above me and then made that god awful squeal. If they stick around they are in trouble, I've got them patterned now.

Not much to show for a dark to dark hunt. Long day. Mallards are avoiding the decoys like the plague.

Hunted a field by my house last night and saw at least a thousand geese and a lot of ducks too. Shot my limit pretty early and had multiple birds try to land as I was walking around picking up decoys.

Good stuff Justin!

Thanks for the scouting report Marcus. I was consideirng onk6 going with one decoy this weekend, quiver butt in a small hole. Let the open water do the work.

Finished out duck season on a good note. Mallards actually decoyed. The lone can came in wind walking over decoys at about 15 yards. Pretty sweet finish. Four sky carp also made a bad choice. Wish we could of stayed longer but it was a real fun day.

 

[Curran]

That's a great day!

 

[Hortontoter]

A great day for sure. The duck hunters on this site know how to get it done. You fellas all impress me.

 

[GoetsTalon]

What a awesome day!!!

 

[bowhunter1023]

Well done dude!

We scratched out 2 geese and a drake mallard. Seen close to 2K geese and 400 ducks. The sheer number of birds we had fly over us was amazing. From 7:10 to 12:30 we saw groups of birds every 10-15 minutes. Unfortunately we weren't where they wanted to be.

 

[Mao]

Even though they didn't want right where you were that's cool you knocked some down. It's awesome to witness that much waterfowl.

Been a rough year.... finished out the last few days decently. Mallards avoided dekes like no ones business. Had close to 300 mallards land 50 yards outside our decoys on a mud flat yesterday that made for a long evening without a shot. That many birds within 75-100 yards from us on the same mud flat sucked!!! Got word of some cans down south and they didn't lie. Had cans in our spread ALL day that we couldn't shoot. Blew a few opps on some GE's and redheads by not being ready. Didn't setup til 830 and left at 230.

Good stuff Zach. Hope to one day shoot a Can myself.

 

[Big_Holla]

Nice!! Great colors in those birds!

 

[Mao]

Those are some pretty birds. Congrats! Love the first pic.

Took the old man for a river hunt this morning. It was -2 and we killed a limit of geese. Didn't even bother taking a picture of the birds. Just the old man.... blows my mind at 10 years old he still doesn't give a shit about getting in the water over and over to get geese in those temps

 

[jagermeister]

Leo is one tough sumbitch. Even as crazy as my dog is, I don't think she'd do what he does.

 

[Mao]

That's awesome Zach! It was cold out there today! We killed 4 geese after school. Had to watch pintails land in the goose decoys. I've never shot one and that's the top of my list. It was hard to watch lol.
