Thank you Mr. Kass. Much appreciated.

Here's a pic of my ducks for the weekend. Can't figure out how to just add it to the pics above. I think I counted 12. The really light colored ones, which is most of them, all have at least 1/4" of solid fat on the entire body. Incredible. I'm drooling already and am going to put an impact split pintail in the roasting pan in a couple of hours...

Wow, cool picture!
I wish I was eating as well as you:cheers:

I just roasted and polished off that split pintail in front. There's enough grease left over for the axles on my Conestoga wagon! Gotta love these fatty ducks. Most of these ducks had 1/2" of fat on their paunch! On another note, I just had my first ruffed grouse of the year picking up sunflower seeds under my feeder; winter is coming.....

Richard,

Good work as always, glad you're getting out so often this season. Sorry you won't be making it down to Michigan this fall. Our last outing was a bit of a bust, was hoping to make it up to you with some better shooting.

We'll do it again Destry; just not this year.

Brown Federal and a bag of green Remington 3 1/2" ten gauge once fired hulls on their way to Fairbanks via USPS Priority.

Thank you Don. They'll get used.

I shot my Ithaca 10 NID Magnum twice last week in Quebec, I still have 1280 rounds of factory 3 1/2" non-tox left... I went on a reloading spree 2 years ago for the short 10s and I have about 225 rounds of Bismuth on the shelf. I don't think I am going to need the extra hulls for quite some time:shock: Enjoy 'em!

looks like they need all that fat, with the lack of feathers they have to go south :rotf: scott
