The opening day was insane. Counted over 400 Honkers flying high to get out of Dodge, once the shooting started. Myself and a sidekick headed out early to sneak in on the honkers. We got to our spot and it was foggy. The water was you and were able to walk out to a muddy sand bar and set up. The fisrt group to come in we each dumped a banded bird. The next group that came in I dumped 2 birds and 1 was banded. 3rd group to that locked up 1 bird took a dirt nap from my hunting partner and was banded. The 4th group to that had there legs out and locked up, I went to shoot my last goose and dumped him, and winged another and yelled to my buddie only shoot 2 and he was able to do it. Walking over to get the that folded I noticed a little jewelry on his leg aswell, making 10 birds dumped and 5 with bands it was a very exciting hunt.
