Duck Hunt Photos (12/10/11)

[rsimms]

Here's a few selected photos from Saturday hunt in North Alabama. We whacked 'em pretty good.

My favorite shot is the first of Tommy Hamn and his son William. Later in the morning, as we were leaving, William took a swim. In his waders the poor little guy was floating around like a fishing bobber and he couldn't stand up. At first he thought it was funny, until the water seeped through all the layers of clothes. Then he got a good taste of why you want to stay dry when you're duck hunting. But as I said, it happened as we were picking up to leave anyway so he avoided too much misery... although he was VERY happy when he got back to the truck.

Glad ducks are in N. Alabama. Just got back from Reelfoot and there are no ducks on the lake. Water is way up from the recent rain.

Reelfoot isn't always the duck mecca it's made out to be... at least not for me. Timing is everything in life.
