I have seen first hand dogs work wonderful in the marsh then u put the in a rice field an they suck or the other way around but when u got a dog that does both yea that's a real dog

I haven't hunted with a dog like this. No sarcasm intended at all, but how does the dog manage? Does he mark 360 degrees around the area and never have to run a blind retrieve? Does he just start the hunt it up process 20yds from the blind and start making big circles throughout the field/marsh until he winds the bird? Or do you just send him back and sit down and wait for him to show up with the bird? I'm having trouble imagining how you control your dog.
I've owned/hunted with rock dogs and ribbon dogs, but it sure is easier to carry a whistle than have 6 lbs of limestone in my shell bucket. But it may be that I'm just not a good thrower, idk.
