They used to row out on the ocean , back in the day. They would line up perpendicular to the beach, coots and old squaw. Fast and furious. That’s the ducks you soak in milk with a brick, throw out the duck and cook the brick.

Amen to that. I remember when I shot my First scoter in Humboldt bay, when I picked it up it was coughing up fish!!!
 
Had 2 trick or treaters in 31 yrs. Used to love duck , goose , pheasant and rabbit hunting. Forgot, deer too. Now I have a hard time killing a bug. Rats on the other hand are a different story.
I was ready to give up duck hunting a couple seasons ago when my hunting partner moved out of state. But his grandson lives a few miles from me, and wanted to go hunting, so I got him in a class and he got his license, now he hunts with me almost every weekend. I rarely shoot, I let him shoot and I work the dog. Last weekend he got three, and his first “Scotch Double”, 2 birds with one shot. Here’s a pic:

I’ve hunted this area for 55 years. I’m Lucky, I live on a slough, and have my own pier/dock, I’m 15 minutes from 15,000 acres of marsh that’s a refuge. My grandfather used to hunt this area when he was a kid in the teens and 20’s. Here’s a picture of him in front of his “ark” and with a bunch of ducks, in 1917!

Are those canvas backs?
 
Yes they are! We still get a lot of them in the area. Of course now the limit is two, back then it was 50!
That’s the thing about duck hunting! You need to be able to identify them before you shoot them! Some there are a limit of two! And some more! Different limits for different strains!😁🐒
 
Its about 80°F today here in Denver today. Probably break record. We haven't had a snow yet. Another record probably being set. West set to get some moisture!?
Yeah, it will be heading your way! But not a lot! It may not make it over the mountains! Going to be 80 here today! Probably for the last time for a while!
