Opening Day

Headed out to Ogden Bay at 4 a.m. with Todd, Steve, and Darin. Hiked a little over two miles to try and get away from all the people. Ducks were few and far between. We need a little migration to start. Steve did end up shooting a goose though. It was really cool to have them bombing us out in the middle of the marsh. We ended up with 10 ducks(mallards, pintail, and gadwall) and one goose. It only took us 4 hours to walk back in. My uncles and Dad are getting old, but I'm glad they are willing to walk out there with me.

  1. It was a fun day being out with the family. Ducks are fun but a goose is a bonus! Thanks.
