Good numbers of ducks down here. Only finished our new maimai build three days out, fresh earthworks and minimal scrub around it. Still, we managed an about average shoot for us, 160 for the weekend. Thought we'd only got 159, but found one in the paddock on the way home to round it off nicely. Only five shooters this opening - two of the guys couldn't make it out this year - and we just filled our bag limit on Saturday evening. Sunday we had steady pairs and singles all morning till lunchtime but they were a lot more wary. We pulled pin and lifted the decoys right as a small front came through and could've picked up another 10 or so. Great weekend once again. Stoked with the new maimai, all we need to do now is pour the floor and install the fireplace. It was the 14th year in a row our crew has shot together, the only time we all get together in the same place at the same time these days.
