Report for weekend hunting from Mike Jolley: "Yea it's been a couple of good weeks. Anyone staying out longer than a hour are getting their limits. It's amazing when it rains how many teal show up out of no where. Monday we had flocks of 200 and 300 ducks landing in the decoys. Pepe lost the title of "Hen Killer" this week. The prestigious title now belongs to Rockie Martin for that mallard hen that got in his way. It's all in good fun, and that's what counts. These next couple of weeks will be good for catching birds going back North!"

"North Zone Duck: "Duck hunting has been fair at best for puddle ducks like mallards, gadwalls and teal. Timber hunters have been able to score their two wood ducks. Hunters willing to shoot diving ducks have filled their bag with the five-bird limit. Lots of canvasbacks, scaup and ringed-necks have been taken on Lake O’the Pines. Toledo Bend hunters have shot canvasbacks, scaup and a few mallards. Caddo Lake has been fair for ringed-necks and gadwalls. A few mallards have been taken on Sam Rayburn. Some hunters hunted in freezing rain and snow early in the week. Conditions remain dry along the coast. Good hunts were posted in the Trinity River National Wildlife Refuge over the weekend for wood ducks, gadwalls, teal and a few mallards. Prospects are fair to good."
