Never In My Life.....

[GrizwalD]

have i encountered such knee booting (literally) jake legs in my entire life.....So we get to our hole this morning and can hear a fair amount of ducks in the sky then right at shooting time i hear a volly ring out next to us. Ok no big deal thats what you expect to come in conflict with eventually on private land. Well next thing i hear is the worst sounding call in my entire life. Im pretty sure it was like and old Yentzen call that the guy was just blowing air straight through and had the same rapid quacks over and over and over.......not to mention this guy never let up from shooting light until time to go (literally)..... Ok so it gets better i hear another guy shoot down the way from us at ducks that still had on their oxygen masks and the next thing i here are the first group of guys yelling down the brake to the other guy trying to converse with him ( not to mention these slap d@^#$ been talking loud as all get out to each other all morning next to us).... after watching them shoot a box of shells a peice they knock down one duck and i hear " i cant get to it!" Yes you heard me correctly, these guys literally had on knee boots and just left the duck cause i picked it up on my way out. So this goes on all morning and im ready to shove my shotgun square up someones >>> for being absolutely so ridiculous. Well i start picking up and walking out and i realize these guys have obviously left cause the calling stopped. So we get back to the truck and these guys i just pulling out and get this THEY ARE ALL 4 IN A EARLY 90'S MODEL TOYOTA COROLLA FROM SCOTT COUNTY!!!! I mean what the hell has duck hunting become????

Understand your troubles, we got to our lil spot bout 545 this morning on public land. We sat and chatted waiting on shooting time with a few ducks flying over. Three minutes before shooting time I hear a boat, well you guessed it had 4 ducks workin and the dang guys skirted the outside of our decoys, flared the birds and set up 100 yards from us. We still ended up shootin a couple but the whole first flight was screwed.

Total non sense.... yea we still shot a bunch of ducks but could have done better and quicker if they had not been in there

Grizwald meant to say that we were hunting public land. He also forgot to meantion all the fresh (steel) shotgun shells that we found in their tracks on the way out. This lead us to believe that they were so upset that we actaully were killing the ducks that they were TRYING to work that they were just shoting up in the air to try to spook the rest of the ducks in the area. I just wish some people had enough respect for those of us that spend the time and effort to scout and find ducks, and the holes they WANT to be in, not to come in right at daylight and do everything thing in their power to keep anyone else from killing ducks just because there not.
