Title: Our opener
Post by: misfire on December 07, 2008, 10:18:21 AM
Three of us in the boat, one duck shy of a three man limit. My son, Mitchell, killed his first mottled duck, gadwal, ruddy duck and green wing teal. The final count was one black duck, two widgeon, two mottled ducks, one ruddy, two blue wing teal and the rest were green wing teal.

That is a nice mess of ducks! Great job! What kind of blind is on that boat? Looks like half of an Avery. :wink:

Season opener...man thats a long wait. I think I might have to find a place to hunt down south so I can extend my season more. Ours only has a few weeks left in it up here.

Looks like we may have missed a couple...good shooting :yoyo:

That is a Flyway Specialties Blind. Works great, I cant stand the Avery, just too boxy looking for my taste. This one can blend in to most anything
