104 ducks!!!
 

Well not shot......but netted and released.
My son and I had the chance to work with a DU biologist and a LWF biologist this weekend and we netted 104 ducks......
Banded 102 wooducks and one blue wing......released one Woodie hen that was blind in one eye.

What an experience to say the least!!Attachment 39912

Thats awesome, cudos to you dad, how did land that opportunity?

Stupid question, how do you get the net on the ducks?

Great job to you and your son. That is work that is good for the soul.

Way to give back a little. That's awesome.

We done that up north in Michigan with mallards and other big ducks was a blast...

we have an abundance of woodies on our lease and the biologist have been trying for a couple seasons now.....it just worked out that we were there.

we sat in the blind before daylight and watched literally hundreds of woodies and whistlers drop in.....it was incredible

they anchor it down on one side and fold it accordingly then attach weighted pipes and "cannon" them over the ducks as they feed....

Thanks...........Now just where will I find a net......:eek:



I bet your son will remember that for a long time. Good job dad

Man I bet that was fun......I saw a video one time of how the capture them with the net.

That's cool!!!
I've seen them use the net on Turkeys.

Watched em net a bunch of gulls the other day at Jr's cut

That's awesome! Your son will never forget that, I know I wouldn't!

What a great experience for you and your son...I'm sure that will be a memory for both of you to remember for a llifetime.

Man that is awesome!!!! Ya'll will never forget that
