I had a big group of mallards come in from nearly outer space yesterday. Unfortunately They dropped in from high enough for another hunter to watch them. He pulled his boat almost close enough to flare them, then He watched us shoot, pick up birds and chase a cripple down. Watched us get back to our tree and then waited about 2 minutes before flying into our hole full speed just to bottom out about 15 yards from my decoys. All while there were more birds working my spread. He then had to get out and push his boat out of the hole. Just when I think people can’t get any dumber, somone does something like this.

Had something like that happen except didn't bottom out, ran into a row of t-post barely under the surface. Needless to say It kinda ruined his day and we didn't see him again the rest of the season.

Man these are some crazy stories. I guess I feel pretty fortunate. I’ve never had anything like that happen as of yet! I hunt only public and have only had one instance that rubbed meWrong. I invited a group to hunt with me opening day instead of competing and they moved around so much they flared all the birds.

Fortunately this year I have not seen a soul where I’m hunting public. I’ve heard shots way way Off but have yet to run into another group. Been a great season with lots of birds so far.
