Where the ducks are..


Recommended Posts

Opted not to go out this morning due to the forecasted winds. Winds ended to be half of what they said. Went down to check the hunting spots to see how trucks where in the lots. Six in one lot five in the other, busy out there. On my drive back home, saw seven woodies in a small creek, and mallards sitting in every puddle, ditch, or run off pond. Everywhere were there was water where hunting isn't permitted. They're not dumb

Went out to a local lake and shot 4 Green heads and 2 Ring bills. There were ducks everywhere. I limited out in 20 minutes. I think this wind/coldfront pushed them down because last weekend I only saw 12 ducks all weekend and today I saw a couple hundred.

As always I opted out this morning for my honey do list and as alway the hunting is at its best for the week was out three times last week and only one day was successfull. Friday was the worst of all company was good but hunting wasnt didnt see any ducks but heard a hen mallard then packed up and headed home got the boat on the trailer and then saw a flock of divers fly right over the spot we were hunting. I will be out in the morning

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
