Late ducks

[Kevin J Legg]

Anyone out after ducks for the opener this weekend? Headed down to Western zone on Monday and wondering if there are many birds around.

Kevin, we were out on Seneca, only a few divers not many mallards where we were, couple big rafts of reds but that was about it. I'm guessing the lack of ice isn't helping. There was some shooting on the east side, but may be in the fields after geese. Was good to get out though.

There was a bunch of shooting on the east side of Canandaigua this morning and a couple of guys with a nice blind on Squaw Island but they only fired a couple shots and I didn't see anything fall. There were 3 prs of mallards about 100 ft away from me on the west side but I was fishing for perch and not hunting.  quite a few geese flew over me also in the early afternoon and they were about in range too   Guess they new I'm harmless

Thanks for the update. We are going to scout Seneca and Canadaqua on our way to Honeyoye on Monday.

South east corner of Seneca was loaded with ducks n geese today just south of Hector Falls. I was out there trolling, bunch of shooting on West side.

Hunted Owasco Lake this morning. There wasn't much shooting and not a lot flying. We took a ride and the area around Montazuma is all open including the marsh.

Thanks for the feedback. Will scout a little torrid and hunt midweek.

I hunted Skaneateles yesterday and today. Thousands of canadas and snows rafting offshore, but virtually no ducks (no divers at all). The warm weather has messed things up.

I hunted skaneateles saturday, only saw one group of ducks all morning. Saw a ton of geese though.

Hunted the east side of Skaneateles for four days now. Very few dabblers, and, apart from mergs, no divers whatsoever. Canadas and snows abundant, but distant. Loons attacking the rig have provided the only entertainment. Hopefully this cold weather will bring some ducks back to the lake.

Anyone hunting Skan, Owasco, or Otisco? How's it been?
