2001-2002 Duck Season

I'm looking forward to this years duck season. I'm not a big duck hunter but do enjoy going. I've upgraded my waders to the Cabela's Ultimate Hunting Wader that has 1000gr Thinsulate boots. I've only worn them once but I think I'm really going to like them. Jim plans to carry me to his hunting club in Arkansas this season and I'm looking forward to that.

December 15, 2001 - Jim Childers and I went duck hunting on Alabama's opening day. We saw around 40 or 50 wood ducks right after daylight. We harvested 3 and could have shoot many more. The morning was very warm ... around the 50 degree range. I tried a new recipe and for the first time the duck meat was edible. The entire family enjoyed it. I plan to start a recipe section and will put the information there.
