Well my first weekend of hunting was a big learner for me. I did not get a goose but at least I learned a in two days.

What kind of got to me was yesterday after I setup my decoys and get them a little better looking them Satruday I had ducks just landing in my docoys with out even a call.

The first one landed about 2 min after my dog and I got out of the water. I just got out the water and I was putting Mongos stake in the ground and I heard a spash and I look up and there is a young duck in the decoys. It looked like this was one of this years chicks. It was in their for a little and then took off.

About a 1/2 hour latter anouther young chick came into the decoys. Then about a hour latter a full grown hen came in. Durring this time I had a flock of 3 mallards come flying inbut did not land. This also made me come up with a questionis it safe to shoot at aduck that is less them 5 feetfrom your head and at eye level. (yea that is how close they came to me Iwas shocked)

Then I had (I can not remember thename of this breed) a duck with a red head on itcome lowbut did not land. This was all with in 3 hours.All I had was 4 goose decoys and 6duck and a goose caller. I did not even have a duck call. I have a total of 12 duck decoys and I think I am going to try and get anouther box of 12 so I have a nice spread going when season opens on the 12 of oct.

I have to say I like duck better then goose so I am not moving my spot that I choose with this much action for the ducks.

To my shock it seems like the ducks fly lower and like decoys a lot more then geese do. Now I have to get a duck call to get that down. I am just wondering is this normal with ducks where they just do not wise up as much as geese do?
