Well you did much better then us. We shot 8 ducks and 4 geese for 4 people for the weekend. Great to get out again though despite the heat and mosquitos.

Here in Iowa, we had ducks a plenty this opener. We had a higher than normal amount of mallards in the dekes this year. Bluewing teal were everywhere. We all shot limits in just an hour. I hope everyone else had equal success, it was just phenomenal!

Opens Saturday here in Wisconsin too, everywhere aroud here is always such a nightmare on public land opening weekend that my dad and I decided not even to go out, were going to try it early during the week and hunt a canal on private land opening weekend.

Just got back from a horrible opener, just happened to be in the wrong place, managed to get a nice drake woody and mallard, and a goose.

I'm almost jealous of you northerners early seasons, but I find solace in the fact that I hunt in Arkansas, mallard capitol of the world!

Hunted North Dakota near Devils Lake for Out of State duck opener. It was great. Did some Marsh and Field Hunting and had great shooting the whole time. The only draw back was I was to eager at the begining and took some widgeons and gadwells. If I would of passed on them I could had a few more mallards instead, they were everywhere.:D:D:D

Hunted the horicon marsh and got nothing. People skyblasting left and right. Some people are stupid. Lets shoot at a duck that you will not be able to hit. Then there was this guy that had this whole marsh to go around us and cuts right through our spread. Then it was 25-35 mph winds out there. Knocked the wing off of the mojo duck. (Word of advice if you have spinning deoys, keep your eye on the wings) we almost lost the wing. Thank god we found it laying right to the right of the duck. Got only 3 shots off the 12 hour day. Opening day did not go well at all. But that was only one bad day. Now time to have good days. Hope other people had a better time than me.

Didn't make it out opener here in wright county MN. Went out the 2nd weekend sunday only and didn't take a shot. Such a bummer. Not much for ducks around at all in this area. 2yrs ago they were every where until the season closed. I want to find some good spots west of here. I miss eating duck cooked in crout.
