Blake got up this morning to go alone and when he saw the clear skies and no wind conditions he went back to bed. Some of the guys hunted the east blind this morning and took (1) teal, and they scratched yesterday afternoon.
Blake's out there now and he brought the decoys to the levee for easy pickins next weekend. He plans to sit out there till LST this evening. There's a bunch of specks on the ground in the area and he's getting to listen to a lot of ground conversation.

Spent an hour making our round, and it was flat eerie. Not so much as a mottled moving in the vicinity and all but four of the birds above gone somewhere when we got back to the truck. Did find a very few other groups on the ground by taking a circuitous route home, but saw next to nothing trafficking anywhere.
Give it ten years. All the hype and commotion will die down and so will the pressure (I hope).DComeaux wrote:Rick wrote:Dogs and I took a spin around your piece this morning.

We didn't see the speck numbers this year as in the previous four years at that place, and none really got a chance to, or did settle in the area. I know the migration wasn't what it could've been, but I do believe the pressure is beginning to show.
