As the waterfowl season is open, after work yesterday I grabbed the shottie and headed for a nice pond on my friends property. Got 3 mallards, 2 drakes and a hen.

The name of the dog is Flash and belongs to my friend. Its is an excellent water fowl and pheasant dog and a pleasure to hunt with. The gun is a browning silver and I used Federal 3 1/2 inch steel loads.

Good going! Looks like you had a real fun day.

Herb, great pictures! Looks like you had a very nice time, and Flash looks pretty pleased, himself. Thanks for sharing. It is always nice to get the "lay of the land" from pictures taken in the field.

You are one tough Dude, water fowl hunting in the americas is cold and damp, could not bring myself to do it, back home in the late 60's and early 70's it used to be cold and damp till the sun came up, but here its diffrent.
