Here are some pictures of todays hunt.Same trojan with me and Chris has the same Dickinson.Birds seemed to be everywhere today.Had one area that was covered.Every step I took seemed to flush a bird.Dog just stayed on point as I missed repeatedly.Finally gain my composure and started knocking birds down.

I had a grand trip planned down there the week between Christmas and New Years. Canvasbacks on Lake Catahoula in the mornings and woodcock in the afternoons. Had to cancel at the last minute due to lake of either bird in the region. I'm glad you boys got into a few.

Destry we got skunked last year no birds anywhere.But as you can see we hit it just right.Woodcock were a little difficult but we found birds and some real good pockets of birds.We flushed over 30 birds in an hour in one.

Now this year the ducks were there for sure.Lots of mallards and greening teal with some gadwall and pintails.Hunting was great for the last week of the season.Birds decoyed well and plenty to shoot.
