Sunny & Clear, High Winds – 45-50 Degrees
Strange weather day – clouds, light rain, gusty winds, then sunny with steady breeze. On thing that was a constant though – no birds anywhere. Didn’t see any on the horizon either. Worst day I’ve ever seen for that area this time of year.

Took the kid out on the Blackwater youth deer hunt this morning. Good number of ducks, more geese than ducks.

Puzzling end to early season..had large number of ducks at night in ponds but zero flying even Saturday with high winds….had excellent shoot on public marsh Friday, however, so weekend was not a complete bust.
Still hearing mixed reports elsewhere.

Good two days, managed 8 woodies between three guys. If we had some more water it would have been better. Lots of geese around.

Sunny & Clear, High Winds – 60-65 Degrees
Reports I hear are very mixed but some folks have had decent hunting for sure….woodies in spots with water but not as many good reports as heard about last year. Teal – hit or miss. Most reports have a few ducks being shot at least. Last 2 days of high winds are uncertain benefit in one area where large numbers of teal were reported seem to have moved on. Some pins and widgeon being seen/ shot but not large numbers. Saturday weather will help us all at least see more of what we might have around. In our place in Kent, we’ve had the night time feeding going on w/ the moon and very little day time activity last Saturday/Monday.
Loads of geese have now come in and this looks real promising.
Fingers crossed for a good weekend!!

Went opening morning three of us limited out on teal and wood ducks. Saw plenty of teal not as many big ducks as this last year but still looks promising.Great hunting to everybody.
