SEMO opener was better than last 3 or 4 years----not great, but better! Last year took us 14 days to kill 30 ducks! Got 34 in first three days this year. Dang few migratory ducks yet, primarily locals. Kill had one Sprig, 2 Mallards, 4 Smileys, 7 GW and the rest Gray's. Same field as last three years leased but this time flooded after harvest corn.
Ol Abe did well for being born in early Aug 11 years ago, retrieved 18 of them including a couple of wounded he chased down full speed like a 5-year old! Blind are tuff for him when he strays off line as he can't hear anymore but when he looks up, he takes hand signals as well if not better than ever.
We are breaking in a new BLM that my SEMO bud has had a couple of months----16 months old, first hunting experience. He is doing fair but work still needed.
