Mike and Paul are amazed at the size of these huge honkers. Back in Pa they shoot lessers much smaller birds thatn here in Canada. But one hunter told me “” Everything is Bigger in Canada even signs of deer crossings”” NO that is a good story dont you think??
Greaters and Cacklers

Just look at the difference in size of these birds. A Greater Canadian weighing anywhere form 12-18 lbs this year the average size was 13.5lbs. The birds were not in great whape while we were hunting. The cacklers weighing anywhere from 2-4 lbs with no extra fat on them not much bigger than a NOrhtern Mallard..

Pouring rain, fog and a bunch of shell. then as we are pulling hte decoys the flock comes. But they put in enough time. These fellows were looking for a good snow shoot but because of Mid oct snow , snows had left. There was a large flock of Cacklers on this field day before so that is what they were trying for. but weather was a bummer TIM shot his first eagle had.

Widgeons, teal, shovelers, gadwalls these birds are just a few Mike and Paul have never shot. The Marketing pond did a good job even after it was froze over once already.
