Pheasant and/or ducks?

I had to be close to 40 hunts last season. I got lazy after the first couple weeks of the season and didn't keep up with my journal, so I don't know for sure. For the record, if I hunt for a couple hours in the morning, and then go out again later in the afternoon, I count that as two hunts.

I have never hunted waterfowl before, but I've been considering it lately as a way to get more hunting time in with my dad and my son before pheasant season starts. I believe my youngest springer is trained well enough to make a serviceable duck dog. My parents have a couple ponds on their properties that I could build blinds on. I think I just talked myself into another hobby.

that dog is hauling as*! big wake.

He's got a big time drive and the motor to match! When he runs he sounds like a thoroughbred. It's like he's trying to punish the earth with his feet. Can't keep weight on him either. He's up to 3 cups a day of Inukshuk 30/25. Vet says his body score is perfect, but he has a lot of rib showing.
