His lease had good numbers of ducks right before we came down but the water dropped out and the birds left when we arrived. Of course they also killed limits the last day of the season, after we had left...typical

Thanks to everyone who responded to my posts for more info on water levels in the area.
We'll get a good season down there one of these years. We just need to hope for wet weather in the breeding grounds and blizzards and clippers in December. Anticipation is half the fun anyway.
