Good catch.   Changed "absolutely" to "completely" so as not to use "absolutely" twice in the post.  Unfortunately, forgot to change the accompanying article.  

But it was indeed a nice catch and not a bad diversion when you can't dispute the era of irrelevance that began when the piggies fled to the SEC ;)

I feel the same !

goodbye arkie

goodbye aggies

goodbye tigers

goodbye to all

Spoonies are not fish/clam eaters!

Shovelers most definitely feed on shellfish and other crustaceans bud. I let them pass and wait on good ducks such as grey ducks, widgeon, pintail, and the occasional mallard. I even let teal pass. If you're shooting spoonies, you need to find a better hunting area or learn how to set up decoys and call. Each to his own though. You probably eat Grinnell too. ;-)

I have been hunting and killing ducks for over 50 years. So you can not impress me by naming gadwalls, baldpate, sprigs, and  mallards. Spoonies food source is the same as other puddlers. Which include all these great ducks you named. 

I never stated to killing spoonies on purpose. I need my bag for bull sprigs.

I had to smash their head to hide them in the mud  

Have you ever seen a spread of over 300 bull sprigs?

And you must be an idiot to pass on teal. 

You must use an auto shotgun too. 

And Grinnells are good. But not as good as Poulans!

You'd figure after "50 years" of hunting and killing ducks, you'd get better at recognizing them on the wing. Especially a spoonie, my god that's one of the easiest. Smashing ducks you kill in the mud is pretty unethical, also illegal. I shoot teal on occasion during the regular season, but prefer to fill my bag with big ducks, usually mostly greys. I use an 870 express btw. I've had it for about 30 years. Autos are too heavy and prone to jam. Good talk. :-)

870 is a good gun

I have mine for over 40 yrs. 

It has never jammed

Mine jammed once when I accidentally cycled a piece of cane lol. The good thing is they're so easy to disassemble, I did it right there in the blind. I even dropped the bolt assembly in the mud. Put her back together and went right back to hunting. Good hunting to you sir. I'll forgive your burnt orange affinity. ;-)
