I hope you got plenty of sleep, I don't think I would have kept you awake from where I was shooting but I know it's a bugger when you are doing shift work and someone keeps you awake.
I got 15, 7 on the river then 8 stalking ponds and home by 4.30 pm. I would have stayed for an evening shoot but I guess old age is catching up with me because I was buggered after all that walking....
Yeah as you can see from the photos of my spot there isn't a ripple to be seen and the forecast is for 20 degrees, I mainly get parries flying around but I do get some mallards with the biggest mob...
Usually like shit, I get most of mine stalking stock ponds a bit later in the day. I think it would shoot better if we had bad weather, it's way inland and the ducks head in the opposite direction...
I just got back from putting the decoys out, here are some pic's

You made a great job of those decoys Bryan, I should have got a few of those as there are a lot of parries out my way
That looks interesting, let us know how it goes
If you can't beat him join him :thumbsup:
Yeah and we had a storm today
Batteries for head lamp, for battery operated duck call and battery in mojo. You can't take anything for granted, I even have a heap of spare batteries. I'm probably older than you ha ha :thumbsup:...
Yeah nothing like getting all the gear sorted. I have been checking batteries in everything, and giving the gear a once over. It only comes around once a year so you don't want anything letting you...
I checked the battery in my mojo today, ran it for over 4 hours and it was still going strong so put it back on the charger and it should be all good for the big day
That's good, mine has none on it :oh noes:
Not long now Fellas, just the finishing touches to go and then the big day :thumbsup:
That sounds pretty clever, I bet it works well :thumbsup:
I'm not feeding this year just too lazy. Probably won'y get any on my main spot but just hope the stock ponds are full
I was the same as you last year I gave it a miss in favour of going hunting deer for the weekend however the freezer is looking good for deer this year so decided to knock over a few ducks.
Checked out the old spot this morning, on the way eight ducks lifted off a wee bit of water then landed on a wee pond up further which is good news as once I have shot the river I then stalk all the...
Sounds like a plan
I have been using elley and that other stuff can't think of the name but I have gone to Winchester as it has always been good ammo
Sounds good bigbear I was thinking about feeding out some acorns but I haven't gathered any up yet
Duck load I think, the box has a picture of a duck on it. 2 & 3 quarter inch 1500 FPS velocity 34 Gram 3 shot
I'm shooting a river so I won't want too much rain but just hoping for a windy opening day. I bought some winchester ammo this year so I'll see how that goes and I might just use a three quarter...
I just got my licence yesterday and was quite happy with the set of ear muffs that you get with it this year from hunting and fishing. I'm heading out to give the mai mai a once over in the morning....
