Today was a day for all wisconsin duck hunters! with temps at 30s for lows 50s for hi's at least where i was at. in the southern zone of wi. day light broke and the skys came alive with ducks varietys from woodys to shovelers,the ducks were working to the roto ducks.it brought flocks of 25 to 50 birds into our decoys, we were running about 75 duck decoys, 3 roto duck decoys and 48 goose decoys. at 7 am. big flocks of geese rose up out of marsh. it seemed like we had duck & geese move, over night into the marsh . if i was to guess i would say we seen 500 ducks &1000 geese. we shot 6 green heads, 4 woodys, 3 widgeon, 3 gadwalls, 1 norther shoveler drake & 3 geese between 3 hunters and 4 retrievers.plenty retrieving for the dogs,they were passing each other while fetching and retrieving, and ducks were still coming into the calls and the decoys. oh what a day for the books.
