I am! We have a field lined up up by webster that is holding a ton of ducks and some geese so it should be a good shoot!

My group of 4 went out again this morning and got our 2nd consecutive limit of ducks and honkers.  We had all but 2 of our ducks in the first 20 minutes of shooting.  What a great opener.  Now we're heading out to Madison to get some more of them perch.

me and a buddy limited in about 20 minutes yesterday with a mixed bag of ducks and today we hunted a silige corn field for ducks and 3 of us shot our limit of 13 drake mallards 1 pintail and 1 woody. this morning we got rained on all morning long with lightning all over in the area but it was worth it. We had tons of mallards working us but about the only time you could tell drakes from hens is when it would lightning and it would shine on the ducks or they would land in the decoys so you could get a good look at them.

Probably not the most intelligent thing you could have done this weekend.   

Lightning is nothing to mess around with.
result = (effort x determination)2

Definatly not the smartest thing ive ever done let alone this weekend! The only thing i was really concerned about was lightning hitting the lucky duck although that would have been pretty dang funny! I was really thinkin about packin up but the ammount of ducks bombing into the field kept us out there. Atleast we werent standing in water like i know a few people were!
