drake


i like to set a goal for the duck season. my goal this year was to get a wood duck drake and or a blue wing teal drake. either one would make me happy and would produce a mount for my hunting/fishing room. on the second day out i shot down this wood duck drake. i was so excited that i could hardly wait to go pick him up. unfortunately, when i picked him up i realized he didnt have a full head of hair. he’s not a mature duck so he wont go on the wall but he will still find a cozy home in my belly.

teal time




so there was a little bit of confusion on the site as to what a teal is, so i decided to post a few pics. a teal is a small duck. i believe im correct in stating that the green wing teal is the smallest of all the ducks. there are a few different types of teal. in florida we really only see two kinds of teal, green wing and blue wing. the teal are the first two pictures i posted. the third is a wood duck. all three taste great. on september 23rd early teal and wood duck season opens and i can hardly wait. im having trouble with my boat right now but hopefully i will have it fixed by then. if not i will be crying myself to sleep at night and there will much complaining on the blog, so pray that I get it fixed so that you don’t have to listen to that.

early teal


a pic from last duck season. i had to stay up on land while the boys hunted out of the boat. it was a small cattle pond so it didnt really make much of a deference. early teal season is just around the corner. i can hardly wait. sept 23 cant get here fast enough. hope the teal are out and about.
