    Thanks, but look at the gun. Beretta Ultralight. 5 lbs. Great to carry all day but only chambers 2 3/4 shell. Steel shot is not common. Got to shoot them in close and fast cause it won't reach out.

    A little wet in that pic, but he's a great dog. Family dog that is a natural at both water retrieves and upland.

    Part of a decent hunt club with multiple locations. Most of the green triangles I've hunted. Olney was best last two years, this year locations by Montague and Whitesborro have been best.

    Okay, let's get this straight. You got your wife and daughter up at 2:00 am in the morning to go sit in a freaking boat to shoot two or three foul tasting birds just to prove that you're a man?

    Screw dat.

    I have paid all the dues I plan on paying.

    I'll never forgit. It was daybreak, in Illinois. Me and the old man were sitting in a jon boat. It was about 28 degrees. I was freezing my ass off. The ducks were smarter than we were. That is, none of those damn ducks were stupid enough to fly near us.

    But, then, in the corner of my eye, this really dumb duck, musta been a democrat duck, comes swimming around the corner. Well, let's just say that this was the last time that particular duck swam around any corner, ever. Snick, BOOM!, snick BOOM! Chicka boom, chicka boom, don't you just love em. No mo duck.

    My old man got so freakin mad. He said that it wasn't sporting to shoot a @R@%$@# duck on the water.

    Me? I couldn't care less. I just wanted to go where it was warm.

    I hunted ducks with a passion for 20 years. Private hunt club, 300 acres. Half flooded timber, half 3-4 ft. deep marsh to wade with floating bogs of cattails that became instant blinds. Then on a 3000 acre lake we had a floating blind for when the marsh froze. Every year we would pull it to refurb with new cattails and natural camo. It was cold getting there but we had propane heat, seats, and a dog door at water level. I remember our decs freezing in the ice over 4 hrs. Nobody took many pics but I can find a few like the one above.

    But like I said in the gun thread, I'm taking pics now. You get to stay closer to the truck. Living by a lot of water. Stopping somewhere once a day, waiting on it to get cold up north to drive down the canvasbacks, buffleheads, goldeneyes. I'll be back with my bag.

    That's funny. A few years ago in Stuggart, Arkansas we were getting skunked. Late afternoon we see this duck standing on the ice 20 yards from the blind. We left it there for an hour as a decoy, but to no avail. Finally drew straws in the blind to see who would shoot it.
    The next day, the sky was black with ducks and we could not keep up, quite an amazing turn about.
