Well, here they are finally... now that you've all forgotten my report. Here are the pics from the week after the opener when I went out with TW and tried to get on some birds. I shot like shiz but he shot well with both his shotgun and mine. :lol:

Tumblingwings and Syder in the blind.

Pics of the small goose spread... but good enough. :wink:

Looks like a great hunt and nice set up riverratt.


What did it take to get you to set up over the decoys and take a day off jump shooting :lol:

Not much really.... just great company and the promise that we'd see a few geese. :lol: The fact that the place is a long, long way away (at least for me) was also a nice bonus. I actually have five dozen decoys at my home, but I don't have a boat to take them out in.... so I just use "people power"...meaning my legs. 8) I really love jumpshooting but this was exciting because it was a new hunting place to me with the chance for quite a few ducks and geese over TW's dekes and mine. It was a good weekend and could have been much, much better if I'd been able to hit the broadside of a barn. Sundays hunt went much better. :lol:
