What the report?? Any killing going on?

Pretty sad around Crenshaw

Lot more birds last weekend scouting than this weekend hunting

That is an understatement.

On the bright side there were plenty of large Mosquitos and loud frogs in the rice field yesterday to keep us entertained until about 8:30 when we decided to call it a day.

Too hot anyway. Birds might not mind it but I sure do.

Quietest opening day on here or in the fields!

Didnt hear a shot either Friday or Sat morning at all, and we usually hear a fair amount. A good number of early wood ducks, but limited number of mallards. No geese moving around either. Lady bugs out the ying yang and lots of mosquitos. Need a couple of weeks.

Sucked

Did not pull the trigger Fri or Sat, so we cut our losses and came home.

Lots of skeeters and snakes.

worst opener i remember in a while.
can only improve from here!

A band was seen. ------ of mosquitos carrying a sweaty, neked, duck hunter over the Ms Levee

Worst opener in 51 years.

4 groups at camp went out. My group knocked down 13 - lots of bwt, another shot 5 man limit, 3rd group had 12, 4th had 7. Not many mallards. Saturday went over to LA and grinder out a 2 man mallard limit. Sunday I slept in after the Egg Bowl celebration...

No ducks to speak of on any of our places. It will get good, just needs a couple weeks and some cold weather.

Yeah, I never get too excited about the first two weekend hunts. I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than mostly disappointed. But, I will be there this weekend, just in case!

My youngest son fired the only shot opening day and killed a banded green head around gwood. Lucky rascal. He got a woody band last year. I've hunted 40 years to get 2 bands and he gets 2 in 2 years. Yeah I'm jelly.
