Monday's duck hunt

Dan, Bill and gunner hunted a new spot for ducks today. We hunted from 8 to 11 and killed five ducks. One hen Pintail, one Shoveler, and three Gadwall. We are heading out to scout for pheasants this afternoon since we are giving the dogs a break. Let's hope our pheasant scouting pays off and we can put up enough roosters tomorrow to get our limits.

Here is a picture of the spot we plan to hunt tomorrow for ducks. The picture quality isn't the greatest because it was taken with the phone from 500 yards away. With that being said, we estimate 500+ ducks to be resting on the water. Every speck you see on the water is a duck. We looked at them through the spotting scope, and identified them as Mallards, Gadwall, and Wigeon. There is limited vegetation around the edge of the pond, so we expect hiding will be a problem. We have now realized that before next years trip, we need our wives to make us ghillie suits.
