We would get set up and with in and hour or two we would have our limit of ducks and a few Canadian geese as a bonus. We didn't hang out long enough to limit on the geese because we didn't want to burn the area totally and scare them out of there. Usually done shooting the birds by 0900 and then headed out onto main river and caught a limit of walleyes by about noon. One or two of the 6 days in a row we did this, it took until about 1400 to get the limit of walleyes. That was one of the most unbelievable hunting and fishing weeks I have ever experienced. The first 3-4 days we were the only ones hunting the spot. By the end of the week there were a few others in there hunting, I guess hearing the shooting may have given us away. Man does that bring some old memories. There were a few years back then when the river was better than lake Sakakawea has been the last few years I was and am still a river rat. dukgnfsn</p></blockquote><p></p>
