Well that sucked

Watershed locked up.
Opened a hole, fired up my mallard machine / ice eater and waited for them to pour in.

Eating breakfast at hardees.

End of story.

LOL I hate duck hunting!

The only time I've gotten out this year, I walked a half mile in and the hole I wanted to hunt was frozen 1/2" thick. No other pond was even close to frozen over, and this spot was over 5 acres of open water. I can relate.

Won't be that way next weekend with the high in the 60s. Debating if it's worth trying with it that warm.

I know one thing for sure.
I will do all the prep work and more than likely will be building a floating blind this summer, BUT if we don't draw in the top 5 at Gooch I will do ALOT less duck hunting next year.

It is fun and I love it but trip after trip after trip of 1, 2 or 0 birds gets very old.

I have said and heard, "Tomorrow will be the day" so much this year it makes me sick.

I only go once maybe twice a year but found out early how much duck hunters work their butts off.

But then, you are there that "day" and you spend thousands of dollars and a few seasons chasing that "day" again.
