It was a great summer, but now it is time to park the bass boat and roll out the duck boat. I just want to talk about bass fishing one last time before I move 100% into hunting mode. My last four tournaments went ok. Ron and I finished in the money on our last two and we ended up in 2nd place for team of the year. It’s good…but not what we were striving for. I had a fair showing at the year- end Silverado tournament and then a great day at the Silverado championship. Unfortunately for me...one other angler had an even better day. I brought in a 6 fish limit that weighed 21.41 pounds and he had 21.62 pounds. First place was a brand new ranger boat valued at $30,000 and 2nd place paid $1,500. That’s about a $9,000 per ounce! But... that how things go.
I am going to spend the next week doing some intensive scouting. I have found that it is better to wait to scout until right before the season starts as the ducks are always looking for new food sources that were not even around a month ago.
I still have a couple of weekend days open during the month of Oct. The live internet duck hunt through www.oasisoutdoors.com is still on. I will post up next week to give more info…specifically what time we will be starting.
