bronco1 Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 Skunked Sat and Sun. Killed 5 bluewing teal Mon. Gonna try again this weekend, and every weekend til its over.
superman84 Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 we limited out Sat and Sun in Anahuac. Sat took 30 minutes. Sunday took 4 hours.
tvc184 Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 Up until the early 80's (when we could still kill 10 birds per hunter) I would normally hunt with two other guys and we would limit on opening day in about half an hour. That is 30 birds in 30 minutes. A big difference was, back then we actually had a lot of ducks to choose from, hence the big limits. Even late in the season, we would usually get our limit of 30 birds in about 3 hours. Oh how times have changed.
superman84 Posted November 9, 2006 Report Posted November 9, 2006 We had 3 hunters each day. I don't like the 5 bird limit now. Any less than that and it's hardly worth the trouble unless you just like all the work.
bronco1 Posted November 12, 2006 Report Posted November 12, 2006 Me and my boys got 3 Gadwall, 2 Greenwing Teal and 1 Scaup this morning at the Wallisville Project. Saw lots of ducks.

Saw lots of ducks.[/quote'] Was it like pulling leather off of a wild boar trying to skin that Scaup? The Gadwalls and Teal are great. That Scaup on the other hand.....
GOBIGBLOO Posted November 12, 2006 Report Posted November 12, 2006 Hey what about the wood duck harvest, have they come down yet? yesterday and this mornin i didnt see anything
bronco1 Posted November 12, 2006 Report Posted November 12, 2006 Well yeah see its like this... I am bulding a collection of species to mount and display for hunter education and fortunately I didn't have a hen Scaup yet. So it is in the freezer whole.
bronco1 Posted November 12, 2006 Report Posted November 12, 2006 Hey what about the wood duck harvest' date=' have they come down yet? yesterday and this mornin i didnt see anything[/quote'] Well that all depends on where you hunt. They are here, you gotta be were they are.

So it is in the freezer whole.That is a very good use for a Scaup. If I can think of another one, I will let you know. Then there is always the Smilin' Mallard, also known as the Spoonbill or Shoveler. A heavily seasoned gumbo is about all you can do for that bird.
BHdb81 Posted November 17, 2006 Report Posted November 17, 2006 this past weekend, me and 2 others shoot r limit in trinity bay in about 2 hrs..... pintails, redhead, teal..... lots of birds... and geese
bronco1 Posted November 20, 2006 Report Posted November 20, 2006 The big kill from Sat. 11/18/06 4 Woodies and 1 Gadwall
bronco1 Posted November 27, 2006 Report Posted November 27, 2006 Well, Duck hunters it is time to take a short breather as the split is upon us. The first half wasn't to good to Ole bronco1 and his bunch. Hopefully the second half will be better.
