Im telling my age now. Back in the early 80's when pintails were 10 point ducks and the limit was 100 points per hunter, my friend/co-worker Minos and I took 20 drake pintails. We were hunting Pass-a-Loutre in Venice and it was an incredible day in regards to the sheer numbers of pintails we saw and decoyed. I had a picture of the birds, we placed them on the bottom of a flipped over pirogue, however my picture was destroyed by the wicked witch of every direction (Ex-Wife) so I no longer have visiual evidence. It certianly ranked up there as one of my best waterfowl memories and made a beautiful limit. I hope for all of us, a safe and productive opening weekend. Be sure to enjoy every moment with whoever you choose to share a blind with this weekend. The picture is just for effect...
