Duck and Goose Hunting near Bruce AB, Sept 04, 2006

Bob Beck, Jim Beck, Lee Foote, and Dixie the Black Lab.

A very enjoyable morning hunt (thank Lee!) on a little pothole lake, a few ducks that flew better than my (very) rusty wingshooting, but plenty of geese coming into the decoys thanks to Lee's excellent calling. We took a nice pile of Canadas and Speckled Geese with a few ducks thrown in.
