    Todd,
    Sounds like you had some good action at least. Losing game always sucks,but at least you can honestly say you gave it your all.

    I unfortunatly had to work again today, so all I had the pleasure of was watching flock after flock of Specks and big ducks heading south overhead. . I am taking the kayak out in the am to float a stretch of the republican and see if I can do any good there. We had ALOT of ducks move in here in the last 24 hours . Hopefully I can shoot straight and put some meat in the freezer .

    Waterfowler here as well. We are seeing a few mallards, but mostly still blue and green wings. I am heading up north of mullen tommorrow to see if I can bust a few up there. I only wish I was half as good with my shotgun as I am with a rifle and pistol. I am going to be up in south sioux city next week for a few days, had thought about taking the boat up there, but a few of us are going to take some dekes and our shotguns for an evening hunt instead.

    I have never fished either place. So I am open to whichever. Let me know when and I can see if I have it open.

    Brian, I have to stop and think about it when I am talking to a civilian. The 24 hr time thing is just second nature. Dad was Army, now me etc.. We are gonna have to hook up and wet a line this fall sometime. I am not too far away from Lex.

    Brian,
    Yeah its great news actually. We have wanted to move to area for a number of years. The timing just really sucks.But hey if all I have to fdo is deal with bad timing and calender crunching for a bit to live where we want to then its a small price to pay.
    Forgot to mention we already have a house south of town 15 acres on the republican river. Cant ask for much more than that.

    Bill, Did you honk as you passed me? Someone did Just east of Kearney, thought maybe it was you. I almost pulled over to see if I had anything wrong with the boat and trailer.

    Not sure about Merritt as of yet. Work will dictate that. I am planning on fishing the fisher roofing tourney at Mac in Aug though. I may be needing a partner for that one.

    Ben,
    You must have read my mind. I Do love to fish red willow, but with location concerns I would have to agree on Harlan. There might even still be water in it by then with the inflow they are getting.
    Just my .02 though

    You wouldn’t need to even start your truck engine just tie a bedsheet to a pole and make yourself a sail today . Might have to ride the brakes a bit though to keep it under the speed limit.
