We have water pumped in and duck numbers are reported good on our farm. I dont wish ill on anyone, but hoping that having water will take our hunting from being fair to pretty good this season.

As long as I get an east wind a couple days a week, I’ll have water, even if it doesn’t rain this winter.

Anyone hearing any reports on Venice? I'll be out there Saturday morning.

Not a drop, and I rely exclusively on the rain.

We'll have to hunt public water until we get a couple good 2 day soakers to start catching on our private property.

Some, will probably pump in more before the open but we'll see what happens Friday. Couple of ponds are thick with sorghum sudan and the ducks were hiding all in it. At least 100 in one pond and 250 in the other. Lots of spoonbills.

I can see a couple ways of looking at this. On the positive side, I like being the only game in town so to speak. OTOH, all those slightly flooded fields made sure there were plenty of ducks in the general area.

As long as diesel is for sale we’ll have water. Ducks on the other hand are subject to higher power approval.

I have water but it's low and will be hard as hell for the dogs to get cripples. Lake is down 20".

No water in our usual holes. I'm wondering if my fish pond might draw in some ducks. I was on the stand last week and saw several groups heading toward it.
