Foggy Morning Not So Good...
Permalink  
 


For the crows! biggrin Skeetshooter and I killed 94 this morning before 10 and then packed up and headed out. It was very foggy and most birds stayed low. Strange wind direction and only set available to us in this area made for some challenging shooting. The slow moving birds and heavy fog really messed with my depth perception. I shot in front of a ton of birds before I forced myself to choke up on the lead. Even when I started hitting birds it seem strange. Finally stopped thinking about it and just started shooting and things came back quickly. It's all good now. Sorry for the lack of pics. Once again, the place was too recognizable.

Fog can be a good thing or terrible. Tends to delay the morning flight. One of the most spectacular crow shoots I have ever had occurred with heavy ground fog conditions, crows were flying above it and would materialize out of the gloom to my calling. Had to stand ready, almost like shooting trap. Thanls for sharing!

I would think 94 in the fog would be AWESOME! I have had very little luck hunting foggy morns.
