Here in Southwestern Ohio it has been 0 degrees or less for more than a week. We still have been hunting ducks in the local rivers with great success. I actually have never seen it better since I have hunted ducks in Ohio. The low water levels and extreme cold weather has kept birds in our area. I believe we have actually shot every species of puddlers and most divers. The griffon I use for retrieving has done well even though the freezing temps keeps ice in his whiskers! Today we took the pointing dogs for upland birds and found 3 pheasants and several quail. I am always amazed at the range you can from a DH Parker with tight chokes.
