Worst Opening day in years
Don't understand that as we saw a lot of birds the last 2 weeks in the marsh. We hunt South of Vinton south of the Intracoastal around Burton's Ditch area. |

So for so good for us in the Kaplan area.
Opening morning 4 of got 24 teal....mostly green wing Today 4 of got 23 teal and 1 mottle duck and we shot like crap.....most of the teal were green wing like on SAT. Tomorrow should be another good day if it can stay over cast with a light rain. |

Cool pic's Raymond, looks like it was a good hunt. I need to put my old digital camera in my bag for such moments that you are sharing. Pic's must be from the Sat. hunt, short sleeves and short pants....That's what I call a tailgate party!

we shot 16 birds between 4 people in johnson bayou, was out decoyed by a guy 200 yds from me using 6 dozenish dekes while i was using only 2 doz, figured action was going to be fast and furious after seeing over a thousand birds around my blind friday but that was not the case, saturday got to hunt with fool at The Specklebelly Hunting Club in Welsh and had a 5 man limit of specks. What a good time that was, it was my first time actually targeting specks and what a rush it is haveing dem big bastids circling, surely fool will post with the pics because he got some real good ones.

It was a little slower for in in Kaplan this morning.......3 of us got 10 gw teal and 1 redhead. Saw a lot of birds but with no wind it was hard to get them to work. Also, we have big open water field about 1/2 to 3/4 mile for us which is now holding atleast 1K birds......

Dang teal are notoriously call-shy after ONE day of hunting them!

man the ducks in Pecan Island at least around my lease look like educated late season ducks already!

I know, our birds seemed well educated to. We actually quit using a MOJO today. Granted, we have done well so far this season but it just seems some of the birds are very leary of passing close to the decoys and the season has been open only 3 days...

i didn't use a mojo all last season and so far this season used it only during teal it makes a difference the big ducks flair on it almost every time they get close

Ya the birds in our area were real educated they would just circle and circle.The blind right near us only got 4 said they every group would flare on the second pass
