wind was kicking but it did not stop us from getting a limit of 30 ducks. we had to keep at it because the wind was playing tricks with the steel shot and it made getting a criple very difficult. the big ducks did not fly much today because of the wind.
24 ruddy ducks
4 mallards
2 blue bills.

Nice report but what the hell are you going to do with 24 ruddies? We usually don't shoot them. Poon

Dem ruddies are actually pretty good eatin, much like a blackhead. They were a preferred duck back in the good ol days. You could fit more of them in the boat. Hope they were at least flying.

If we shoot undesireable ducks, I'll cook them up and serve them as dog treats, my dogs love them.

they were flying and they have been eating corn so they will taste very good.

OK, this is the second time I've heard 'Blackhead'. What species of duck is this?
