Time: morning
Location: mudhole
Cloud Cover: partly
Wind Direction and Velocity: Southerly nil to light. Again.
Temperature: warm
Barometer: 30.21 rising
Moon phase: half waxing
Special Notes:
Waterfowl Activity: just smatterings of this and that, more big ones and fewer small ones than yesterday
Waterfowl Responsiveness: great, thank goodness. Probably sold another RNT MVP, but also swapped the current Microhen for my old original, more assertive one and had good luck with it, too.
Hunters: 3, Therin, John and Sal
Guns:
Malfunctions:
Dog(s): lost two ringnecks I let slide too long while birds were flying before sending him
Special Equipment: SOS
Kudos: Nice guys who were blessed with working birds on what could have been a very light morning.
Curses: Two of the guys hunt a lot in places where the birds apparently don't work well, because they too often tipped our hand by starting to go, or going, when the birds weren't yet where they should have been, instead of waiting for me to call the shot. One the other hand, they hit most of what was right, which was a pleasant change from recent hunts.
Birds By Species: 1 bw teal, 1 gw teal, 6 mallards, 4 ringnecks, 1 spoon, 4 wigeon and 2 specks
Photo Ops: First speck of the Mudhole's season comes in the back way;
Greed, laziness or efficiency?
Didn't work in any event:
