Texas Second Split Opener

[BArmand]

Hot, foggy and calm conditions on opening morning, but it didn't matter. Eight hunters killed 48 birds on Saturday and 7 hunters killed 30 birds on Sunday. Lots of pintail, grey's, teal and a few mallards. Made a quick hunt with a friend on Wednesday and killed 12.

A few of us made a goose hunt Saturday afternoon killing 5 specks. If Sandhill Cranes would have been in season we could have smashed them. I bet they all leave before it opens on the 22nd. It was hard to get into our laydown blinds after we ran accross a 4.5 foot rattle snake close to where we set up.

Good luck to everyone in this weekend. There should be some birds down after this past front and 2 weeks of resting.
