For this year.
I really had high hopes for this years duck season or at least some hope for a better season than the past few years but once again
I WAS WRONG.This year I replaced a worn out falling apart duck blind with a new and improved blind.
I gave my decoys a bit of touch up and I got my game plan together way before opening day.
The evening before opener I put decoys out so that I don't have to mess with that on the morning of opener and while I was out there I was chasing Mallards out of my way.
The next morning the morning of opener there was NOTHING to found.
We did not have any Wood Ducks this year and no Canada Geese, NOTHING!
I pulled my decoys and put them in the garage where they never moved all the rest of the season.
There is something terribly wrong in this area of our flyway.
I don't know if it's due to the weather, farming practices, pollution or that damn Mexican EL NINO.
There is still a month or so of goose season left but I am not holding out much hope.
The KANKAKEE GAME PRESERVE had a horrible season possibly their worst to date.
