Lone Drake Waterfowl Outfitters - Hunting Reports

We had another good week of hunting. Saturday we managed a five man mixed bag limit ducks consisting of gadwall, widgeon, mallards, and Greenwing Teal. In total we took 42 birds for the day, as we also shot 8 mergansers and 4 geese. Sunday was a little slower but turned out to be another good day as we shot 12 ducks in the morning and then the guys had to head home. Bird numbers haven't built up quite as much as I would have hoped but it looks like the weather this week should bring in some more new birds.

We had an excellent first week of hunting. In five hunts we killed 77 ducks and 3 geese. Half the birds were teal, about 1/4 mallards. The heavy rains coming over the weekend will probably slow things down. It's not the most fun to hunt in the rain, but it sure is beneficial for the ducks. I still have some opening in the beginning of November. Give me a call or send me an email for more details.

It was great to finally get back out hunting ducks again. We hunted a smaller lake that had a large number of ducks using it. We ended up killing 30 ducks consisting of primarily Green Wing Teal. We also had a few Mallards, Wood Ducks, Blue Wing Teal, a Gadwall, and a Ringneck. A lot of the potholes were low and many were barren of ducks, but others had a fair amount in them. It appears that most of the Blue Wing Teal have already migrated South. I expect a good number of ducks to migrate into Minnesota on the next North wind. We're off to a good start!
