Home Forums Birds & Dogs Waterfowl Duck Weather

Went out Friday after work to shoot a few ducks - weather was perfect and the teal were flying. Old Tank got to hunt in the cold, sleeting weather and couldn't have been happier. Managed 4 green wings, 1 blue wing and a nice bluebill drake.

That's a great looking dog! I wish we had some of that weather back east. Here in Pennsylvania we've just had our 5th straight day of record heat - up into the mid and upper 80s each day. It's supposed to get more seasonable with temps in the 60s by the end of the week though.

Thanks! He's a Super Powder - Candlewood dog, I traded a chainsaw carving for him back when I was in college. Seems the wealthy doctor that was breeding them musta felt sorry for me. We run a fine line here between cold and so cold the water gets too hard for the ducks. So far this year is shaping up pretty well but it only take one day of bitter cold to drive all of our birds south.

I'll be heading to upstate N.Y.the last weekend of this month for a couple days of duck hunting. It's been warm up there too, but cooler days are on the way.
