Lots of Mallards on the roost this morning , jumped them off before legal but they never came back untill we were at the truck. Only action we had was a solo and a 4 pack .

Back to the farm pond this morning, the mallards must have moved on or found a new spot with all this water . Had a 3 pack come in before legal . Then only had 3 Solo's come in .

Today flight was horrible. Only one morning arrival. Buddy's son had a blast tho . Running around with the dog and building the blind .

Today felt like opening day . There were people all over as expected now deer season is over . Had a back up plan the "black hole"... Nothing but black ducks most of the time and today was no different. We got our limit of blacks with a couple peach treats. Then back to the big water to finish out our limit . Couple Mallards and some squaws. Today involves a lot of work and driving around but it paid off.

I hit Braddock's yesterday. Ran flags 20yards off shore at the loop. 2 to 4 in of ice. Had 1 flag, hit and drop. I don't recommend going out there with out a Spud or going out to far.

The passed 2 days have been kinda slow for me . Birds left from 1 spot and today not much water at the pond.

High water mark.

Back to the quarry this morning. A little bit slower than yesterday . Not sure if the weather had anything to do with it !! Cold windy and snowing perfect condition for Mallards. I think the holes going to freeze up ,off to new waters! Taking next 2 days off for deer.

Did a little squaw shoot this morning. Not much flying but enough to keep busy.

Got out this morning on some public. Was doing great till water leaked in my waders and my foot got cold. Lots of golden eyes flying today !

It's all good !! [emoji106] It don't get anymore hybrid than that or it would be a straight black duck.

Sent from my Pixel XL using Lake Ontario United mobile app

First impression is black duck, to me. Be interesting to see what an official might think. Or how to handle it. I’ve gotten some that were crossed, but not quite like that. Have you harvested any before?

Yes I have only shot a hand full of them With good crossing tho .

If one was ever stopped by the law, what species would that fall under for your limit?

Good question . With the white spectrum above and below the blue on its wing , it would be considered a mallard. I bet most wouldn't even see that and call it a mallard anyway. Could probably argue it tho.

Got beat to the spot this morning, plan B not a good one froze out. Only seen 1 and it came in. Cool looking hybrid.

We went to the farm pond and picked a limit of green . Not 1 black in the flocks of Mallards. Got a good hunt lined up for the morning mallards and geese in a field , only thing is the hide might be a problem.

I hear you on that !!! For the most part it's not even worth it but we love to do what we do !!

Back at it again ! Not much wind to keep divers flying but the mallards loved it !
