Headed out to North Dakota in the morning for a week of duck hunting and possibly some pheasant. Will be interesting after the blizzard they just had.

Missing 1 for the picture but had a great time yesterday on the water. 9 dead, 2 went missing. 1 hen mallard, 1 blue wing teal, and the rest woodies. Lots of laughs and the dog did very well. Good times

First day in ND. 15 on the day between 7 of us. Pretty slow. Lot of ice/slush on most waters.
Mix of mallards, gadwall, bufflehead, shoveler, redhead, and teal.

Oooo. Thats not a good ND report. Where in ND?
A friend of mine that hunts by Ottertail MN had a decent day Saturday. 7 gads, 2 woodies, 1 ringer, 2 spoonies, 1 mallard, 2 mergansers....
I have hunted Ottertail county for 40 years now.... never shot a gad or spoonie there. The ND storms and snow must have pushed them east.

We shoot gad up here occasionally however more common towards DL from my experience. Always wanted to try Gourd Lake near you. Looks like a good area...

My friend is on Tamarack Lake, right across the road from Gourd. Gourd drains into Tamarack.
Gourd.... good luck getting access to that lake. I have wanted to hunt it for 30 years. Cant get access.

The sheriff in Rugby came knocking on our field parked pickup topper window 20 some years ago with a fist full of flu flu arrows in his hand. Wanted to know if they were ours? I got my arrows back and he let us stay at his house for the rest of our trip.

Slow slow slow. Skunked a couple days. Limit one day mediocre rest. Only a couple hen mallards.
Swan is delicious though. Swan heart isn’t bad either.
