    And that's it for us. All plucked gutted and in the freezer.

    Worked out 81 ducks for 11 hunts this month between 3 people but mostly just me and dad as granddad only went on 2 hunts and my brother came with us once.

    Me and dad are rapt with the season.

    Yeah best season I've ever had. Best season dad and granddad have had in many years too.

    Just until the water stops driping so just a few hours.

    I'm glad ours has come to a close. I went out for the 3 mornings of the long weeken (being the last days n all), and not one duck came into the wetland (23 possies). Took the surfcasters on Monday, but no fish either. Bugger.
    My wife asked what I was going to do now that duckshooting has finished as an excuse not to talk to her. I said "actually, I was thinking of going into the bush". I know one bush I won't be going into for a while!!

    Fortunately there's plenty of other bush out there Lentil

    Some of it might even be virgin bush.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
