No story to write about. Should have stayed in S Tx shot Whitewings which were everywhere!!!

Jan. 10, 2017 - ducks were there in profusion; lots of different species. Bitter cold but no wind; had to break ice out to the Cadillac Blind. Much to my delight my host gifted me a 25-round box of 2 1/2" Kent Tungsten Matrix #4s which he had brought back from England. My newly-restocked X/DE Fox really liked them! The ducks, not so much.
