Posted By: bgallup Field Editor MO River near Miami MO 12-20-2012 11:35 Sunny & Clear, Winds Calm – 50-60 Degrees Tuesday this week was a nice day for a boat ride and since the intent was scouting, not hunting, having a warm day was fine. Did find several good looking sand bars and plan to hunt this Friday. Hopefully todays snow and and cold won’t push all the ducks South.

Posted By: bgallup Field Editor NW MO 11-21-2012 13:10 Sunny & Clear, Winds Calm – 35-40 Degrees 5 days of duck camp with limits of mallards every day last week. Big bunches worked the decoys. The weather was perfect. Happy Thanksgiving all! ben Posted By: kpsriverdice Web Member Bob brown 11-18-2012 16:35 – – – John, due to the lack of moisture the pot holes in Nebraska and Iowa don’t exist.
