I get the dekes set and get the boat set and blind up. 5:30 now, got an hour till LST, time for some coffee. About half way through my first cup a huge mat of grass comes up the river with the tide and wipes out the dekes.
Ok, calm down, this is all part of the duck hunting experience I tell myself.After getting all reset and looking at the time, 20 mins till LST. Cool, more coffee.
10 mins till LST this guy paddles up to me and asks if I've seen another guy float buy. I say no and then he asks if I mind if he sets up on the next bend up river? I say works for me cause that is about 200yrds away.
LST comes and no birds. About an hour into it I hear geese coming. I start calling and get 3 to break away from the flock and start to circle. All of a sudden BOOM BOOM BOOM I'm like what the F*ck? The geese were still about 50 yrds high and the dipsh!t next to me starts skybusting. It was at this point I also figured out he didn't set up 200yrds from me, he was maybe 60yrds from me!
Now my wife is freaked out cause there is shot raining down on top of us. I am pissed because I've got an idiot set up next to me skybusting (and missing) geese that I called in. So I decide to start messing with him. I would randomly hit the call and he would chime right in with his every time I did it. Then I took it one step further, I would lay on the call, wait and then fire a couple of rounds and in a loud voice say something to the effect of "wow! Nice shot honey! You got a double!" I then sent the dog for a swim and when she got back said " Holy Sh!t honey! Your first duck ever and you got a band!" He could not see anything coming up the river from where he was set up.
This continued for a while till we got bored. I then exclaim " Well hun, that's our limit!" and proceed to pick up the decoys.
As one last f*ck you, I trimmed the motor way up and waked the snot out of them sitting in their little gheyaks.
ok, rant over. Just needed to get it out!
