Day 59: And one to Go

Duck season 2018-19 is about gone. Kind of like the ducks. Here today. Gone tomorrow.

There were some guys shooting ducks Saturday, but again it was just here and there. A huge number of geese came in and there are some big ducks. But a lot of the hunters were mainly seeing teal.

We killed 10 this morning, but it wasn’t anything to brag about. We had one blind that didn’t fire a shot and our other blind killed four. Next week when it gets super cold for a few days, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a lot of flight ducks out in front of it, but I won’t be going out to watch them fly by when we can’t hunt them. I wouldn’t even bet on that the way things are going.

We’ll have our last report of the season tomorrow. You might as well give ’em a shot. It’s a long time until next November. Be safe.

Day 60: A season we won’t miss

The best way I can describe this year’s duck season is that it began with a whimper and went out with a whine. I can’t think of many times I’ve felt this way, but I’m glad this one is over. It wasn’t a good one. We kept thinking it would get better, but it didn’t. We had just enough good days along the way to keep us interested for a while, but Day 60 on Sunday ended just like most of the rest of the season — not many ducks.

I appreciate all the loyal readers of the Duck Report and we apologize for the technical difficulties this last week. I’m glad we were able to pick up with them on Facebook. If you enjoy reading the Duck Report, make sure and give us a “like” today.

We’ll be back next year. Let’s hope the ducks will be, too!
