Some days you win and some days you don't. Very few birds on that river yesterday. However along with sunrise we saw a Bald Eagle cruising the river and oddly enough we watched a guy drive into a field in a pickup truck across the river. We didn't know what he was doing standing by it for 15 minutes or so until a deer came flying out of the woods and he shot it. The drivers showed up in another ten minutes and helped him load in the truck. You don't see that every day.
PS. Frank also forgot to mention the pair of mallards that came in from behind us cupping but going with the wind. 20 to 25 yards overhead and we were looking the wrong way and they were out of range by the time we saw them. Oh and there was the small group of low flying geese coming up the river as we were leaving in the boat. Frank will learn a fundamental law of waterfowling, birds will usually decoy when you are picking up decoys, LOL.
