This year they're still running a few ahead of the mallards that are usually our dominant big duck. Gather they're a particularly early migrant, as even pintails remain sparser than normal. Shoot, we've killed 56 bluewings since big ducks opened, as opposed to a total of 18 during last year's regular season.

Up there, if gadwall lock onto your spread, 9 out of 10 times they finish. We had a pair this morning booger for no reason. Flaps up, no mojo, no calling, suckers went straight up.
Just seems like they are a little more finicky in the marsh, all species.
