Congratulations- well done!
I frequent the stalking forum and was quizzing them about taking an 8 over for waterfowl . Seems ammunition isn’t readily available there and if what they told me was true you can’t even get 8’s loaded with bismuth . They told me if I ever went to bring my own .

Well now, that looks like a heck of a lot more fun than sitting here with no bird season open in below freezing weather!

Glad you got to go and had such a great time...and thanks for sharing your trip with the rest of us.
