Bull Cans like that are waterfowl trophies in my mind. Awesome picture and awesome hunt. Good for you.

Very nice ! I’ve not killed my first duck yet , but hope to soon . And ever since reading James Michners novel “Chesapeake” Cans have been high on my list of ducks I would like to take .

Cans, number 1 on my bucket list of ducks! We have very few to none here in N H . Great pic!

I’ve always wanted to take a can but never got a shot at one. I’ve taken most North American species but a can is the one I want the most. There was a reservoir in Maryland near my home and it usually had cans on it. I used to joke with my friend Jeff M. about making a suicide run on them just to take one. I used to park and just watch them. One shot in that area would have brought the police for sure and I would never hunt where I wasn’t supposed to. But those ducks sure did taunt me.

Great picture.

thanks for the picture,

never had a chance at cans - that is one species I would love to hunt, several of my old decoys are cans, they fascinate me for some reason

and nice gun- love my grade 2 short ten as well - way too much fun to shoot

Canvasbacks
 
Rick.…. There are hundreds and hundreds on the Niagara River right now and on Wednesday we will be banging them...….Not to far from you really...……. Naturally weather and ice dependent….Have to draw a blind to hunt the West River....Info is online for drawing but I assume you are familiar......Let me know if you have any questions..

Merry Christmas....Marty

Congratulations! A bull canvasback with a Parker is the "Turdy Point Buck" of shotgunning.
