Minnesota Canvasbacks
 

I had a fun day hunting on a public hunting area in South West Minnesota this morning and bagging a limit of bull Canvasbacks. A flock of 8, all bulls or drakes, came into the decoys and my friend and I shot a limit of 2 a piece. I shot my 2 with one shot out of my EH 10 Gauge and 1 1/8 oz of #4 Bismuth being propelled by 3 1/2 drams of FF Goex. The bull Canvasback in my opinion is a trophy in the water fowling world.

And they eat real good also

Great shoot Matt. The big 10 has been good to you, beautiful birds.

It's my vote for the tastiest duck.

Two bull cans with one shot. Outstanding!

I love the big bull Cans and drake Blacks. We used to shoot some beautiful bull Cans in late January in Oklahoma.

Congratulations. Taking two cleanly with a special gun — it doesn’t get any better.

Some day, its on my bucket list as is redhead and brant

and what a ducker to hunt them out of too!

The Alumacraft Ducker is a great boat. Mine is one of the last ones built without the holes in the deck for stabilizing poles.

The Ducker after its new paint job.

Shot a drake sprig with the EH this morning.

Excellent

Looking good!

What could be better than a Trojan as the perfect 'fowl' weather gun?!

The color on the wings is beautiful. It says Fall. That is Nature at her best.
