Elsberry/Foley area. We benefit a little from the MDC's commitment to the big dollar guys to keep BK Leach pathetic.

Another 8 this morning. Not seeing tons of mallards yet but plenty around. So far our bags are a mix of maybe 25% -50% mallards, depending on the day, and the rest are gadwallls, wigeons, pintails, a few woodies and some divers.

We're not in the high dollar flooded corn. Just common folks on a rest lake...

Winds picking up midday. Prolly heading back out to see if the afternoon holds any promise. Afternoons have mostly sucked for us lately but the winds and this little front coming in may stir a few up...
