Saw quite a few. New hunting buddy overslept or turned off alarm. He showed real late. I got some shooting but damn my gun is up to its old tricks. Didn't shoot straight ! A pair came in and kept going after three shots. Next pair came in and I dropped one, but it fell a distance away and started swimming hard. I lost sight in some waves a few mins later. I hate losing them. Tomorrow morning 11 year old nephew is going to join. Hoping for good shooting and reasonable weather.

I was out Sat morning, Sunday morning and Monday morning. Some shooting, but not great. The very worst part is Saturday morning my trail cam picked up a nice buck with fat tines walking under my tree.... If I would have gone for deer instead of ducks I could have jumped out of the tree and rode this deer around. It was that close.

 

Nephew and my brother showed up and we did get one coming in. It was screaming!! Tail wind and moving fast just above the water.  That was it in close. Saw a ton flying that day and lots of geese. Nephew enjoyed this I think.  Took him in the afternoon for deer which I don't think he liked. Didn't see anything. 

 

I am going to hang up my shot gun for a while though and exchange it for my x bow. Until I get something. Hopefully Ill get something soon with the xbow and head out for ducks again.  Good luck out there.

After owning both types, I would never buy a sit in again.  My sit on top has way more storage, is more comfortable, you aren't sitting in water all day if you take a wave, and I can use it for snorkeling, diving, spearfishing and fishing easily.
