Closing weekend here in southland. Destruction of the old mai mai begins in the next couple of weeks. Digger in for renos and driving in new poles then construction. Looking forward to next year.

Got a few this afternoon. My 6 year olds hooked.

Got 3 last night and went out again this morning. Another dozen between us. It was old school cold in Southland this am. Had to smash ice for decoys and for the dogs to retrieve. About -5.

Try it in an oven bag . the skin is crispy but inside tender and moist. Doesn,t dry at all. Just spray with oil before you grill

Nice one. I do mine like that because I stuff them then roast in oven bags. I then cut the bag away and put them under the grill for the last ten minutes on a high heat. Works a treat

Picked up two tonight at home. The drake must have been close as I shot his head clean off. Made a mess but plucked him anyway :thumbsup:

Dundee get an automatic feeder . You will get much better results than just dumping bulk feed into a pond .

15 mallards on saturday and thats all she wrote for this year . Average season

40 mallards and 1 Parrie . 2 guns . 2 days . Not flash

Some average opening weekends then. We were down on previous years. Only 37 mallards and an eel for two days. Still three months to go. There will be more swat ups.
