  1. Nice shoot KJL !! I have been working like crazy but made the trip up north for the opener . I hunted solo this morning, my buddies didn't want to go to the back of the swamp so they stayed up front. Lots of birds flying saw lots of teal and wood ducks but the widgeon and gadwall were flying good . Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  2. Yeah really , I think your choke can do better honestly I've seen way better tss 410. That's why I asked after I gave a compliment on it being "not to bad" at 40 ...... Butt hurt? Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  3. 17 pellets in the head for a 410 at 40 not bad wouldn't recommend 40 tho"yes it can kill at 40" , did u try any others? Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  4. Longbeard XR at sportsman was 25.99 a box , it's up a bit from last year but every time I go I pick up a box or 2. I'm glad I got 2 boxes of TSS last year I never use them tho. I think I'm good for a bit. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  11. I thought a couple years ago ( 4) when this was all going down at the meeting they said our reproductive numbers in the States are not good? Now all this Canada stuff is what we're going to base it off of GPS birds in canada ? I could see more birds in new York and pa being GPS trackers on to see where these birds are going and reproduction and breeding because those are the ones we are losing the breeding pairs too correct??? Those are the ones we're concerned about? SMH Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  12. Nice job kill all them "bird nesting destroyers" #savetheturkeys . Crows kill lots of turkey nests each year. 1 crow could be a flock of birds ..... Can't beat a good crow hunt !!! [emoji23]. It is a good time! Not bad for a bait pile hunt. Get on a flight and it's a blast. Scout bird , it doesn't matter if u shoot the scout they will come back to the dead 1 if they are going to come back . Give it some time out there could be a lull between flights. Decoys are good to have. Make them look as real as possible , as in how they are sitting . Do some reading and u will be amazed how smart these birds are . For a call try feeding frenzy or a destress call . Got out a couple times this year but not as much as I would like to. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

They never chase like other lakes " as fast as u can reel". 1/2 oz tube jig thread a smelt on the hook coming out dorsal fin and put a stinger hook by the tail . Jig that like a tube Jig. It's called" Hemlock candy ". Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  16. Went out solo this morning to the public swamp. I would have had more shooting but I didn't want to move where they wanted to be. I had only one bird come in and it's a stud of a bull !!! Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  17. My buddy and I went down to the creek today , slow first light then 745 to 830 couple birds started flying. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  18. Hit the public swamp solo again. This morning was a lot more of a duck day , high winds, overcast with some grit mixed in. More ducks flying today than yesterday. Unfortunately most of them were mergs , a couple nice size flocks of mallards going out to feed but some stopped by to visit. I gave a 3 pack of geese a couple honks to keep them inline looking and down my 1 [emoji23]. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

  22. My buddy and I hunted a public swamp this morning not many birds but the ones that came did it right. With all my puddlers mounted time to start them all in a dead mount. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  23. My buddy and I hunted a corn field this morning . Waited for the rain to stop then set up. Had 1 flock come in and we left. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
  24. I did some scouting the past couple days in the swamp. I saw about 20 shovelers feeding a couple days in a row and with most of the backwaters frozen today was the day to try before things open up again and they feed elsewhere . The Mallard's wanted another spot than us but my buddy and I had them shovelers fly over and we dumped 2 . I lost sight of them 2 nice drakes in the flock as they were coming in [emoji107].
