Finally…….

….. A little better hunting weather to get the excitement level up a little. Seeing a few more birds along with it too.
Everyone ready?

I haven't even fooled with hunting opening day around here the last couple years. Our lease is 3 hours away so we don't usually make the trip until the Friday or Saturday after thanksgiving. Told the 5 year old today we better start scouting because we may be hunting before we eat turkey next Thursday.

Been seeing and hearing some geese not sure about ducks yet but I'll keep my eyes out for sure.

Had a call yesterday that a bunch showed up this week

Idk about big ducks but I deer hunted around my brother's duck hole this morning and it was slap full of woodies. Opening morning will be a beatdown for him and his buddies if they all stick around.

Some places might need to run a ice eater for opening morning.

The water we need for our lease continues to trend the wrong direction but maybe we'll get some precip this week. If not, this weekend will be a work weekend instead of a hunting weekend. Still better off than the last several years at this point so I'm holding out hope.

Any birds showed up for anyone that does have water yet?

Saw a fairly noticeable increase in numbers after last week's front. Mainly wood ducks before but the mallards and gadwal showed up. Hopefully, with the forecast they're giving now, we'll all see more.

Heard good numbers around West TN and we still got one more front to go...

Still been mostly warm this fall I don't think ice will be an issue. Skim ice at best.
