Shoot the duck

[In Memory of Vicroy]

Just got back from Venice, LA after duck hunting with our son, the rich and famous Capt. Brent and our son in law Chuck. Yesterday was the coldest day in south LA in a decade, and the north wind blew all the water out of Brent's favorite duck ponds....but he has a new 35 hp Gator Tail surface drive air cooled mud motor on a 16 foot duck boat....a monster in the mud....we got in a pond and all the water fell out by 8 am.....decoys on the mud.....had a robo decoy spinning and all of sudden we got covered up with gadwalls, shot our limit of 18 in a short time, Brent's super black lab Tory went in the sloppy mud and got them all, mostly two at a time. Had a little trouble getting out of the pond with zero water, but we did.....this morning hunted some open deeper water and got covered up with pintails....my shot of the trip was folding up a pintail sprig at 60 yards after the boys missed his ass at 15 yards...the old man can still shoot.

Da Judge and Andre' were heading down there to hunt with Brent for a few days and me & Chuck met them for lunch (oyster po boys) at a place just below New Orleans and told hunting lies, we going, them coming.

My first week of real retirement is working out good. I'm real lucky to have a son and son in law I can hunt and laugh with.

Randall - those funny looking yellow hi contrast glasses I wear help a lot....also some good dark roast coffee with a little Crown in it improves your aim considerably....

Harry - we may be over your way at the Grand Hotel in April....I'll give you a holler.

Heading to the camp to rest up from the hunt....supposed to be in the low 80s.....maybe take AJ for a run.
