My records show that’ on an opening day (Sent. 1st) in the early 1980's I checked 16 gunner! at Blooming Point ponds and their kill averaged 9 ducks per mah- They were mostly blacks and Blue- wlng teal, with the blue-willie pr!- dominatlng by a slight marlin- There was the odd Green-wing teal and scaup observed that day- Oniy the odd gunner had lell than 4 ducks. Today its the other way round....only the odd gun- ner hast birds.

O O

Up until 1989 I had no trouble securing my daily quota on the opening ‘day i! I really went ai- ter the limit. In those years be- ginning in i900 the daily bag limit ﬂuctuated between 10 pnd i2. In the early 1920's the daily bag limit per gunner was as. This was lat- er-. ducod to l5 per day and then around i040 it was cut to l2. It was nothing unusual tor two gun- ners to bag d0 ducks on the open- iﬂ! day when this number was legal. _

O O O -

My records show ulat since 1M one has had to really hunt and have good luck along. with the hunting to bag any ducks worth while. Talk about getting the llmlt on the opening day this last iew years-mine fest is rarely ac- complished. ,
