FINALLY got some open water! Had to break ice the first hundred yards out of my cove to reach it today, but got out. Mainly a scouting trip this afternoon to see what's around, but saw plenty of divers the last half hour. Only fired one shell, but that's all it took to get my daily Canvasback. ;D It's on now baby!!

Dave, I can't believe you still had ice. It must have been stacked in there from the tide. I shot plenty of cans this week so that won't make me jealous, however a limit of puddlers from the marsh would (not that you need inspiration to bother me at work).

Don't worry, if we shoot the green headed chickens I'll call you at work! Geez, preferring puddlers over divers, I can't believe I hunt with you. Might as well hunt with that bonehead at Deal Island...

Not really preference, I just shot my limit of cans and bb's everyday last week. Variety is the spice of life you know.

Had to break some ice on the way out this morning, but what a great day. Uncle and cousin joined me, came in with a pair of cans, 4 bluebills and three pretty drake redheads. Tons of birds flying today, wish they all would have worked the spread for us. Guess I'll have to get out in the rain tomorrow and do it again...
