Okay Season

 This was an okay year.  Twenty-two ducks was below average, but not horrible.  Most of our hunting (with Mike T.) was out of his layout boats. We did hunt out of his small Go-Devil boat a couple of times.  I reached for a decoy, slipped, and almost swamped his boat.

The place we hunted was non-motorized until this year. Wow! What a zoo. The gates at the ramp opened late (late for a duck hunter at least) and there were often more than 50 boats waiting to launch. We had the same delay for launching our layout boats. At least we had a separate launch area.

The floating islands I had scouted before the season were all blown away by opening day. We hunted in a small grassy, fixed island repeatedly. As the season went on, the hunting got harder and the island got more mashed down.

Did get a new species: a redhead. That was fun.
