A little humor for ya'll.  Back in 2001, we were hunting our lease on 1985.  We were sitting in the grass on the levees.  My buddy had a one year old black lab, who had good potential.  The dog was bolting into the water when he heard the safeties go off on the shotguns, and he flushed the ducks away.  My buddy decided to chain him to the bucket he was sitting on.  A group of teal flew in and the dog bolted, tightening the chain, pulling the bucket from under my friend.  The bucket, attached to the chain attached to the lab went into the water...all the contents in the bucket went into the water.  My freind went into the water on his back, filled his waders up, dunked his shotgun, lost his shells, calls, binos, his cap, etc.  We expected him to shoot the lab, but his gun was submerged, he was wet and cold and then he let out a barage of expletives.  The six of us laughed the hardest we have ever laughed to the point of crying!  Have some fun out there.

Rumor has it (OR just my wishful thinking!!) that much of the marsh grassland has been salt water killed so the ducks will stay further North. PS Dear Ducks,,, Please come back to Rayburn!!

Teal season has been one of the better ones so far.

Good Luck to everyone.

Hunting is good at Rayburn, how about a little heads-up for a Dayton boy.

Heard reports of limits both up north and down south. My cousin had 4 of the best hunts he has had in 20 years while he was on Tealcation from IKE. 10 minute limits. He said one limit took him 30 minutes cause 15 were taken up by his "puppy" getting after his first crippled bird. He wishes he had a video camera. Said he also saw several flights of greenheads one morning.

Maybe the action will continue and i can find time to make a hunt.

The actual refuge will remained closed throughout the season BUT middleton and pace tract are to open back up to the public December 13 ..

They reccommend you going to scout them if you are going to be hunting due to debris they will have most of it either removed or marked .. You will be able to scout Thursday December 11 and Friday December 12 during daylight hours only.

      What the writer stated wrt crossover votes in the primary/runoff: "Covey and his supporters Paxton and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said Phelan only won because Democrats crossed over to vote in the Republican Primary for him. Paxton said Covey’s campaign identified “at least” 1,442 Democrats who voted early in Jefferson County in the primary runoff. Texas does not have party registration, but a voter’s primary voting history is public. The Covey campaign has not released its methodology behind its claim, but  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up  by The Texan news website found that 9% of Republican voters in the March District 21 primary had voted in one of the previous four Democratic primaries. However, only 5% of that group had voted in all four previous Democratic primaries. What Phelan’s opponents did not mention is historically Democratic Jefferson County is undergoing a political transition towards the Republican party — the county judge switched his affiliation to the GOP in 2017 — so many residents have a mixed primary voting history. And Phelan’s allies in the House dismissed the idea that liberals swung the election. "I knocked on doors, hundreds and hundreds of doors, made calls for Dade,” Republican Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano, said on Mark Davis’ radio program Wednesday. “I did not speak to a single Democrat down here in HD21. Not a single one." "

      He's with it enough to do what he's told, beginning day 1 when he signed the order to revoke the Keystone Pipeline project.  But more recently, he's protecting the DOJ, as well as himself ...  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up

      Most 75-80 year Olds have some type of cognitive impairment. If you are asking if Biden has dementia then my answer is no. That is a Republican talking point. If you all think he has dementia what type do you think he has?
