There's was some shooting between me and RHC. Probably on Lake Elizabeth.
I got out yesterday for the opener, did some hunting on the fox river. It was pretty slow but I managed to get two woodies. It was nice to be out either way though!
Did anyone get out this morning
This was the slooooowest opening day I've ever seen. Didn't hear any shooting (besides shots fired from our blind. Only brought 3 green heads home. No geese. Seen some Woodies buz the pond.
Hopefully others did better. Below are a few pictures from this morning.
Couple goose decoys on the pond
Green heads from N. Il waterfowl 2012 opener
My lab Winston
Wild turkey
I'm almost convinced it's impossible to get the IL threads moving UplandH
Have you hit grouse yet this year? I got out last weekend. #'s were good. Weather was very wet though. Still a great time.
I haven't been up to N WI yet. Im headed up Thurs thru Sunday but Im not sure Ill be able to chase any birds. Taking out the pier etc that weekend.
You chased grouse last w/e? Where?
I was at Woodstock N High School early this morning for a 5k charity run and theres a retention pond next to it and wow were there a lot of geese on it. Flying off of it for 2 hours this morning.
