Felt like closer to sleet than snow. With a 30+mph wind it smarted a little

That snow/sleet was awesome. Resulted in 14 mallards and 2 shy of our 4 man limit in about 10 minutes. One of the most unreal hunts I've been on for ducks.
I'd rather be fishing!

WOW!!  That's gonna be a lot of snow!  My wife's friend in Nebraska said they got hit last night.  Can't believe someone would go through on a motorcycle!  But good for him if it is his only way to get to work!  Wish I could find guys to hire like that in the oil field.  Like they say, "It's hard finding good help!!".
The next time you think you know it all, try telling someone else's dog what to do.

Still deer hunting here but thinking a LOT about first trips on the ice as I sit in my blind. Seeing a lot less deer the last few days. Only saw 17 this morning and only small bucks. Glad I have a good deer herd here to help time pass waiting for first ice!

We got a foot of snow yesterday. This morning about 5:40, a power station blew and we haven't had power since. I like winter but this one is starting off wrong
Every plastics manufacturer claims plastics outfish livebait. So now I use livebait just for the increased challenge.

About 6"-7" of real heavy stuff on the ground at the moment. Radar shows we're only about 2/3 done with it. 50* and rain by Thanksgiving.

Drove in to Lansing last night, there must have been 10 accidents, police cars and tow trucks were out. You know how it is with the first snow.....
I'd say we got about 5 inches here.

We got between 8-10 inches and guess who was too lazy to get the snowblower out of the shed in the back yard.
You can observe alot by watching.
