How did the season go?
 
I hunt mainly here in SW Ohio and my partner and I have taken exactly 82 birds this year(geese and ducks). We have shot just about every duck in the book except for a cans. This has been one of our better years of gunning.

I've taken 98 ducks to date and still have this weekend to get up over 100! Our season ends Sunday. The geese have started moving down and we have extended seasons on white fronted geese through March.

I hope to smack a few of those very soon!

The ducks I've taken so far consist of mainly teal, ring-neck, bluebill, gadwald, ruddy and a handfull of mallards. The greenheads are just starting to really show up, a little late though!

We have taken mallards, pentails, buffleheads, teal, surf scoters, widgeon, gadwalls, redheads, ringnecks, mergs, geese, blacks, and a few more I can't think of right now.

I have shot around 40 ducks and 4 giant geese. Would have killed 3 times this if I shot better.

My season was cut 20 days short because of un-seasonably cold weather, so my last day of hunting was novemebr 5th and the season closed on like the 26th I think. On the 5th everything froze solid everywhere so my harvest was down about 25% from last year. I ended up with 75 ducks total and 15 geese. If I could've hunted the last 20 days of this season I know I would've way surpassed my last year total of 102 ducks and 12 geese. So i guess it didn't go to bad.

Best season ever. 163 birds, and we still have till Mar 10. Never broke 100 before. You think being laid off had anything to do with it?

Maybe just a little Goldeneye! Sounds like a banner year.

Not too hot this year. The super cold weather froze my honey holes so the season ended a little earlier than usual. Goose season is still in, but I'm not sure if i'm going out again.

Well Western CO isnt known for its waterfowl huntin, especially on the White River! But this year totally sucked as far as the birds went. My son was born the first week of season, was in the hospital 2 weeks with him, thankfully all is well now ;) then it got cold as all get out and the few birds we would have had high-tailed it to warmer weather. Now my last option is to go over to the eastern slope and chase some geese, more or less till the end of march. Oh well theres always next year right? Gives me more time to bust clays and perfect my allready perfect.....ok not perfect but im workin on it.....shot. Buy more dekes, and just prepare. All aint lost turkey starts soon enuf.....
