Everybody decided either
a) they werent going to go with me
-or-
b) they werent going to go at all
SO I went bymyself down to a spot like 3 minutes from my house on the river. About 30 yards across the river, and the deepest stot across the whole thing was about 2 inches over the top of my knees. I didnt have a dog, but I had my waders on.
Got there about 1/2 hour before shooting time, heard some guys and a dog down river. They are usually there, they are pretty cool guys.
About 8:00, They start blasting away, I watch carefully. Nothing.
10 minutes later, more blasting, then a groupp of about 10 flies my way, way to high to get. After they pass, a lone mallard drake, 10 feet off the water, coming right up the river. Coulndt have asked for a better shot. And I actually got him too.
About 8:30, another mallard dropped from right over my head, and he was gone before I realized what happend.
Thats it. Usually when Im down there I see or at least hear some geese, but I didnt today.
Not as good as REV, but good all the same smile.gif
