The duck season ended Mon
day in this area with some
hunters reporting a successful
season and others (poor hunt
ers like the writer) calling it
only mediocre. There is talk of
cutting the 1947 season to 20
days and a limit of three ducks.
That would be alright for us as
We only averaged one-third bird
per hunting trip, but to some of
our local nimrods who always
get their limits, it would not be
worth getting out the old
smoothbore.
