Got out Friday Saturday Worthington area, expected to push more birds, most birds flushed were primarily by the dog, others that weren't I'm sure sat tight or ran, at one point I seen two dash through the grass not 20 yards in front of me. It wasn't 20 seconds later they flushed wild about 80 yards up. Managed 3 birds total in 2 days, had a couple misses we should've had. Top freeze over anything with water but still good chance your breaking through when you get into anything dense that doesn't freeze as fast. Seen no other hunters Friday, and a few on Saturday morning but nothing too crowded. Shot 1 rooster out of surprise in thigh high grass, the other 2 out of a pine shelter belt. We'll see how the rest of the year plays out, probably done until next year. Glad to get through the 1st year with the pup, pleased with what he's done. Seeing the first season told what we can work on most in the offseason. Really wanting to purchase a second bird dog to cover more ground, or even add additional help to the current dog so he's not covering as much on his own. Hopefully in a year or two.
