Sunday in California....Big ducks are in.

Brian, down here we call those dogs Chiweenies.

[Richard Flanders]

In Alaska they're called "breakfast dogs"..... for the sled dogs, of course....

I too am in my sixties and my feeling is that you just gotta keep doing it while you can. Duck hunting is a commitment of time, gear, energy and work to add up to a real sense of satisfaction. It takes place in a world that not many people see and the swamp gets into your blood. I too can relate to feeling in my 20s and figure where else can you get away with painting your face and carrying a big gun.
Nice post

Eric, you are right. Keep moving or rust, and all the things we do to keep duck hunting prevents a lot of rust.

I would like to see that BHE that hammered those ducks, that sounds like a nice gun.

Is that a grasslands hunting area that we hear so much about?

Brian, I appreciate your posts about duck hunting in the Colusa Sinks, one of the prime waterfowling areas in the US. Very nice and well done. Thanks.

I lived in Merced when stationed at Castle AFB, and had a German shorthaired pointer. We had wonderful pheasant hunting there. Those big great fields and marshes with the snow covered Sierras in the background. Had the old 16ga PHE and a fine bird dog, what could be better?

Lots of fine hunting places along the West Coast, and a rich tradition of quality hunting and hunters.
