The best ag land reports I've heard have been doing their good in the afternoons, but I also heard of one of those that's "always" strong drying up. What we have in ag land went to crap along with the rest - unless someone's remarkably tight lipped. Know we went from 13 Sat to just 2 Sun where I tried afternoons.
DIL from Creole just walked in and told me the kids' spot there took a dump after the weekend, too, but Oak Grove has some Little Chenier blinds that are still killing well. So maybe Bcorey has the honey hole...

Reminds me that Erwin Cooper and Boo were here (said hunting went to crap quickly down the river for their friends) and passed along the Dee has had a tough go with bad burns on both hands, forearms and across his midsection from a steam line/hose fitting letting go while redoing Bourbon St. pipes. Said he's recovering well, but still must have been hell.
Re: the duck derth, I heard an interesting theory, attributed to a biologist, this morning. That being that the week or so of north winds we had earlier in the month carried birds that then had time to rest and fatten up enough to feel ready to continue on south across the Gulf when guns erupted all around them last Friday, instead of still being tired from getting here and needing to stick it out. Dunno, but it sounds plausible and fits what we've observed.

Haven't tracked our hen ratio but it's been such that I'm more than confident it's the highest seen since I've started paying attention.
