What you fellas seeing as far as migration numbers? I'm trying like crazy to get a buddy of mine to go hit a deep pocket of water in the woods in the morning. Hoping it's one of those mornings where birds pour in while you're standing in the dekes picking up birds!!!!!!

Steering rod was locked up. Primer bulb valve fell out. I slipped on the boat ramp flat on my back. Motor would run then starve for fuel.
Saw 10 wood ducks at the boat ramp all morning. Not the morning I was hoping for. Going to thaw the boat out this afternoon in the garage with a propane space heater. Will try again.
At least I didn't have to watch mallards swarming the skies while soaked in gasoline at the boat ramp.

Well, yea. !BUT!, had I laid in bed it would have been open with 50-11 banded black ducks sitting on it.
Just should have gone to bigger water. There was lots of water open, relatively. We just went to the wrong place today.
