Got the go ahead to shoot on a swamp we've shot before but never opening. set up 2 blinds.
Had 7 guns. Blind A saw all the action on opening morning, Blind B managed to score 2 and got to watch all the ducks dive straight into blind A. It was entertaining though as most of the ducks got away.
Went to town for brunch and back to the swamp for the evening flight, down to 4 guns so blind B was retired and I finally got to do some shooting.
Returned this morning and had a few more come in. I left my gun empty and concentrated on the caller and the dog for most of it.
We collected around 35 - 40 birds over the 2 days. Young fella's got to shoot some, couple of novice shooters got a couple in the end and even the grumpy old buggers that set it all up were allowed to shoot a couple in the end.
Interesting how the younguns claim every bird they point at, and the grumpy's say 'well shot young fella' as they quietly slip another round into the mag.
