				Checked on some of my early season spots this afternoon...bird numbers are about what I expected.  Should get in a few good hunts before we hit the big water in Mid October.

				Good looking spots, Dan. Are those private holes?

				All public, have hunted them for years and have never run into more than a handful of guys in all that time. 
They are all within 2 miles of each other, so if one spots occupied, I just move to the next, but again that's rarely happened.

				Old squaw water for sure.  Poor things fly into the stumps and you can pick 'em like cotton.

				Finally the great Dan slips up and gives us his hunting spots. Before you know it, it will be a tourist attraction on opener.

He's trying to throw us off his trail.

Public holes that pretty down here in Louisiana would be overrun with yahoos, would have to spend the night there to get a spot.

				Watched a hundred or so mallards working a cut corn field this evening. 
Found 50-60 using a marsh with a half dozen ring necks and a dozen or so teal and 150 honkers...so the question is. 
Where to hunt on Saturday??

				Yeah - but all those holes I posted above will probably frozen over in 5-6 weeks.

For our sake down here, I sure hope so! Good luck this weekend and let us know how it goes

				The conundrum with that is, pretty sure they are roosting on public land, which means some opening day Duck Commander hero will probably blow up the roost...then you get nothing.

That changes things.
