Had a great morning, but failed.
By what we talked about after, is I don't think he saw the walk up memory bird.
He went and got the flyer, but went about 3/4 of the way I had him lined at the walk up bird and switched to the live flyer fall area.
I should have handled him too. Soon as I realized what was going on, I should have whistle sat him, and cast him back.
Oh well, tomorrow is another one, so we'll see.

Are you hunting out of that box?

I'm not going to lie, I'm surprised you kill anything out of those things. Do you leave them out all season?

Trap must hate his picture taken. I just can't seem to get a good manly picture of him. Anyways, got a beautiful redhead drake this morning. ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v631/splattermatic/20131117_141753-1_zpsb1aea068.jpg) He is frozen, awaiting a trip to the taxidermist.
