We went this Saturday. Arrived around 4:15 AM and checked in. Went to put on our waders and found out I had grabbed Julia's set and they wouldn't fit. Went back to check in and said take us out, we had the wrong waders. DNR guy said "how about you use mine, I have them in the truck?" So we did and had a good time despite no ducks. It was freezing snd below 33 degrees the whole time. Harry wanted to go to the Waffle House. I told him the Waffle House always tastes best after duck hunting. He later agreed I was right about that.
