Go to Arkansas and 20 minutes later it's snowing. That happened to me the last time I went to Tennessee! Don

It took the guides the biggest part of the day to get 2 holes opened up so that we could hunt. One group of guys went out about 11 and the group I was with got in the blind by 2. We saw several hundred snow geese and blues flying together and one flock of ducks that numbered probably 60 or so. None of the flocks were close enough to shoot. Tomorrow shows more promise. I have made several pics of the trip and hopefully will have some pics of some kills. I do know that the group that went out early had a flock of ducks that numbered in the hundreds try and land in their water hole and nobody killed one. I think they killed 3 ducks and possibly a goose.

Back with no kills. It appears that I was in the wrong blind both days. We shot at a flock of geese right off the bat Tues morning and within 30 minutes, the birds had stopped flying. We sat there all day and didnt see hardly any birds. They started flying again at about 3:15 and were done by 3:30. We left at 4 and I am sure that they piled in after we were out. I have the pics loaded on the computer and I will load some up to photo bucket tomorrow evening and put them on here. I would love to go back before the season ends and hopefully with less ice.

I've always wanted to try out duck hunting. Watching Benny Spies on Versus makes me want to travel up north and take the plunge.

Well Doc, if you have shot anything this year, you have almost done better than me. I have on teal and that is about it. Headed to East TN of all places on Wednesday.
