Opening Day 2022 at our marsh with Nellie

[Craig Larter]

We had a great opener at our marsh in the Montezuma area of NY. Nellie is a happy Lab. Nice weather with a strong SW wind.

Nellie does indeed look happy. You look pretty chipper yourself. Looks like a good day all ‘round.

Do you anticipate a model 11 D , E or F out there this season ?

Most likely I will not use these guns for waterfowl. Normally I switch guns for every hunt, but this year I may mostly shoot the M 21 for waterfowl. Late season ducks will see my Parker DHE 12ga 3 frame and my Super Fox C-HE.

Great pictures! I have never, ever hunted ducks, maybe one of these days.

There’s hope for you ! I’d never fired a shot at a duck until I was 60 .

I have hunted NY from the St Lawrence Valley down to the Finger Lakes region the last two weeks. I started duck hunting 50 years ago and have never seen the number of wood ducks like this year. Our marsh is holding 1000 woodies. The numbers in the St Lawrence Valley which is a major breeding ground are unbelievable. So you guys in the south get ready. We are still killing blue wing teal in the middle of October.
