knobby Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 The past 4 days were very action packed and full of fun for Ross and I. Ross started it off on Friday when he shot a nice Southern Iowa buck with 15 scoreable points. Then Saturday it was off to the flooded cornfield with Al, Tyler, Curt and Steve. A total of 24 ducks and 4 honkers were taken on this day. After scouting Saturday evening we found a nice field hold several big honkers and lots of little hutchies. We knew the honkers would work but skeptical about the hutchies since they never seem to do what you want them to.Sunday morning rolled around and needless to say they landed in the spread a 3 were taken, 4 more honkers filtered there way in and we ended the day one goose short of a 4 man limit. Thanks again to Al, Curt and Christian for joining us. Sunday evening it was off to the marsh for our annual marsh hunt with our dad and family friend Bob, with the way the Iowa weather has been we weren't sure how it would turn out. The outcome was much better than expected, Monday a 4 man limit of ducks and 1 goose were taken and it was a mixed bag, teal, mallards (one banded), gadwall, pintail, bluebills, ringnecks, and even a couple of spoonies. I even had a chance to set down the camera during the rain/snow and take in some of my first ducks of the year, I think I'll stick to running the camera though, obviously not shooting has taken a toll on my accuracy! Tuesday was a bit tougher but managed to scratch out another mixed bag of 14. The rain moved in and we had to head home back to our real jobs but all in all it was a great 4 days.
