tried hunting up by conde today and didnt do very well. Tons of birds up there probably saw half a million birds but none wanted to decoy. Lots of water up there and birds all over the place.

Yeah, Preston area is holdin a few on sheet water, but the few big groups the last couple days been flying high and fast.  Herd good numbers in Clark and Spink county but lots of water lots flooded roads accessing them is tough.  Bo
