Posted By: Muddy Bud Guest Zapata, Texas 12-10-2008 20:43 Sunny & Clear, High Winds – 45-50 Degrees Just got back to work this morning and every tank in the ranch was covered in ducks. Looks like the front last knight brought in more than sleet. I have never seen so many gadwalls in one place. Gads make up the majority of the birds but I also saw Canvas Back ”they have been down here since early November” blue and green wing teal, widgeon, blue bills and pintails. I could actually see ducks dropping in all day to the tanks from the rig floor. I think these birds are roosting in the big water at night on nearby Falcon and coming to the tanks in the late morning and through out the day.

The front due in Friday should really put a few in the rice fields.

But thats duck hunting in Texas. I am at work at the moment but will be returning home on the 5th. I have booked a trip to Choke Canyon with 1A guide service on the 7th. I hope the front blowing in on Thursday will bring some ducks with it.

We didn’t fire… Continue reading

With 3000 dead cattle to munch on… There should be some nice weight gains. Problem is the entire area smells like death. Old cattle heard took it on the chin. Posted By: Muddy Bud Guest Valley 09-19-2008 20:52 Sunny & Clear, Winds Calm – Over 70 Degrees Working down in the McAllen area though I have seen a couple of bunches of teal flying late in the evening to some nearby water tanks,they just are not as present here as out on the coast. The doves are another story. I have seen some huge flights of white wing in the early morning and just before dark, ”man they got some doves down here”.
