We had a great day, a little more wind might have been nice but we couldn't complain about the weather. The strange thing was we didn't have a single mallard come anywhere near us today and they tend to be the norm where we go. We came home with pintails, gadwalls, and a canvasback. The mixed bag was kind of cool. Diesel sure earned his keep with one of the pintails. It hit the water and didn't move until the dog got close, then it came to life and kept diving and coming up in a new direction. The chase must have gone 200 yards before he managed to get a handle on him. http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z134/dwc_photo/diesellooking.jpg

Good day but a little weird.Dave since I have never shot a pintail or canvasback I'd say it was a day for the books:D

We didn't bag a pintail or a gadwal today. Just mallards and widgeon! Had my dad and his buddy, plus 'ol Dan out today. Three guys in their 70's! They all shot pretty well, especially my dad if you consider he lost the sight in his right eye and has been shooting left handed ever since!
Here's a few pics.
