re: Duck Season in Review

Mostly marshes of SE La public, one on private land, also two hunts in fresh marsh below Lake Arthur. Tallied up my season totals below:

80 grays
61 GW teal
27 BW teal (24 from early Sept season)
19 shovelers
12 mallards
5 mottleds
3 pintail
6 redheads
4 wigeon
5 ringnecks
4 dosgris/lesser scaup
3 buffleheads
1 woody

206 ducks regular season on 29 hunts, 230 with the early teal season (8 hunts) included.

Was far better than previous season (just over 100 birds), and more on par with previous few seasons ranging from 220 to 270 birds. Daily average of around 7 ducks is deceiving, though, since we had a decent many limit hunts but also a good many at 2-4 birds. Many days saw plenty but had hard time really getting on them more than a day or two in a row.

Can't wait for September
