You still hunting Thunderbird? Our spot near Markham is vastly different this year - 30 acres of millet instead of 200 acres of rice. Been predictably slower.... just hoping the birds show up eventually.

Yes sir and our northern ponds, near Markham, are pretty slow right now. Birds are all down by the coast.

Aransas Pass was super slow Sat/Sunday. Hoping that this front pushes a bunch more birds down.

Got a 1 man limit on Saturday with my two boys in tow. Spoonies, gadwall and whistlers. First time seeing the whistlers down there. Overall very slow, only managed a limit due to some uncharacteristicly good shooting (triple and a double).

That pic has a Black-Belly Whistling duck so assume it's those. I did see about 10-12 Fulvous whistling ducks on Saturday. They're still down here too, which is pretty rare (this time of year).

Know someone that shot 3 fulvous in Bell county a few days ago. Never heard of one that far from the coast.

Only place ive ever gotten them was Sabine NWR.

Saw a bunch of black bellys super high and hauling butt south, after the front yesterday.

I'm out of town but know some guys going out in the morning. It sounds like a bunch of Pintail and Gadwall showed up with this front.

Shoot straight boys!

Don't you love that!

Some turtle somewhere snapped that thing off when he was a wittle duckling.

Can't wait to start tracking ducks live in real time.
This will be the most hunted ducks in America.

What could go wrong!

They've already been doing this. We received some intel in the past about avoiding a specific sex and species of duck due to a GPS bird being in the area.

I'm sure there are wingshots who can look at a flight of ducks in dim light and avoid the hen gadwall.

I sure ain't one of them....

It was actually a pintail, but your point stands. Only way to truly avoid that is just shoot teal for the first 10 mins of shooting light or only shoot big sucks that have white on them or giant bills when they're on the water lol

Report from rockport. Birds still tough. Friday much better than today. Redheads starting to show in decent numbers. Pintails scarce.

Some ducks to be had
