re: Duck Season in Review

SELA Marsh.

I didn't keep a tally this year, but we guestimated 550-600 birds taken off of the lease this year. Mostly greys, but we killed teal, dogs, couple mallards, saw some pintails one day, spoonies, redheads, a goldeneye, buffleheads, mottled ducks, ringnecks, hoodies, and saw some geese.

We killed a lot more dogs this year than last year. Last year, we only killed/saw one and it was on opening day. This year, they saved a lot of hunts. Less greys were around this year than last, but we still had a lot. The most noticeable difference between this year and last was the lack of teal. We hardly killed any teal this year, whereas last year we were averaging 1-2 per hunt per hunter. We also didn't kill/see a whole lot of spooners.
