Not to bust your bubble MM but there are far better deals on Craigslist. I bought over 300 near new dekes last yr off the List at incredibly low prices. Lots of guys have quit club hunting due to the economy and a whole bunch are cash starved. Check out the ATV listings….unbelieveable!

From the hunters I talked to the Junior Hunt this past weekend was generally poor. Lots of ducks have returned to the north valley from the flooded bypasses but their scattered in a large area where most of the rice fields have standing water. Some hunters did far better on specs than ducks. Saw one field that had to be holding upwards of 3000 specs.

On the bright side, we continue to get precipitation w/ rain forecasted for most of this week. So far we’re slightly ahead of the normal precip for this date so let’s hope the rains keep come’in.

The survey is poorly written and doesn’t fully explain what is going on behind the doors.

Looking over the proposed AHM framework, in the last 10 years, we would have had a closed season twice. How this is going to help us, I’m not sure. They are still basing all of the framework on the total US/NA population and not breaking it up by flyways.

If you have not received the CWA notice regarding the CA DF&G Pintail Survey please go to the CWA website for info on how to partcipate in the survey….www.calwaterfowl.org

The survey is being conducted by F&G to find out hunters preferences on how the pintail daily bag limit and season length should be determined based on hunters preferences. The results will be presented at a March, 2010 meeting between F&G and interested parties such as CWA, DU and Federal agencies.

Well, we went out w/ nary a whimper this past weekend. Birds never returned after the series of storms. Too much water in the bypasses and there was never a good north wind to bring them back. Llano Seco, Howard Slough and Little Dry Creek refuges were completely birdless incl some of the larger private safety zones that had been holding birds all season.

All in all it was a pretty good season and consistent until the past 10 days. Let’s hope the Prairies and Dakotas have more snow and good Spring rains and we get over our drought hump come April. AND the Feds keep us into a 2 sprig zone for next season.

Everyone take care, sharpen your fishing hooks and ready your turkey hunting gear. April 1st is just around the corner!
