 Hey guys welcome back again to another reaction video. This time it's going to be Matt from High Prairie Sportsman going to be reacting to his video and it says 10am three man Mallard limits. These guys I think they do it to me on purpose. They know how much I love Mallard so they always send me the good Mallard hunts. But it's a 28 gauge Mallard Duck Hunt in 2021. I know this video. I watched it when it first came out but it's been several months since I've seen it so looking forward to reacting to this and watching this video. So I hope you guys do too. Hey don't forget to check out Matt's channel for my High Prairie Sportsman. Go subscribe to his channel. I'll put the link down in the description below if you haven't heard of him yet. And let's get started. I've already got fistfuls of Mallards. These guys they always have good hunts together. Oh man. You know what's frustrating to me is I was buying that 28 gauge back in December and that gun store really hosed me on that one. There was three left so I ordered one the exact same one Matt's got. And anyways they said they ordered it and I checked in. The California has a 10 day waiting period. I checked in about two weeks and said is it ready to pick up? They're like oh I'm sorry Mr. Headings we forgot to order your shotgun. And then they were all sold out so I got really hosed and I was pretty bummed. So I'll have to. Now it's almost impossible to find the gun to buy. We'll see what happens. Heard some ducks talking. I've always wanted to hunt small water like this too. Hopefully we get some Mallards in here. Just a good moving water. Small water. It's all iced up. It's almost time. Already they're cut. Right before shooting light we had some Mallard Drake's dump in including this one here. He went and landed and as soon as it was shooting light I jumped up and looked for him and it turned out he swam up just a little bit out of ways. Already dumped him. But I decided to wait for a better shooting opportunity and I didn't have to wait very long. Right in the face. Smoked him. I love that 28 gauge. Like I said I wish it was so bad I had that gun. Good shot. So I was first on the board and as I'm going out to pick up my Drake here comes another couple birds in and Tyler just makes a great shot on this one duck. Smoked him. And just like that we had two Mallards down. And then we had to wait a little bit. This pair just dumped in from sky high. We thought they were going to keep flying past us and all of a sudden they put the brakes on and cut in and Tyler got the Drake and we let the hen go. And this is pretty much how it was early on in the morning. A few singles. We had that one Drake land before shooting light and then he got out and he saw a few other you know pairs and singles up high and a couple other bigger groups. But they just weren't looking to land. The other guy is shooting with guns as far as if it's a 20 gauge or a 20 gauge. But such an awesome setting. Just a bunch of Mallards. Got some full bodies floaters. We just lined it right here in this little bend. And they've been trying to decoy here. We've had some decoy back here. Perfect. Small water. Beautiful country. Snow. Probably a lot of other things were frozen up. So this group of three came around and they just never would come close enough to commit in and they actually landed a few hundred yards away from us down on another part of the slew we were hunting. So Tyler and Jack decided to get up, go after them so they're not pulling future birds away from us. And the old adage about someone being out of the blind during duck hunting held true once again. Oh, they're so close. And all of a sudden I look up and these two Mallard Drakes are coming in and I look up in the sky and there's just thousands of ducks. This guy is literally black with ducks. They don't even care. Boom. Boom. Haha, double. Mott took his head off. Matt's lethal with that 20 gauge. That's for sure. Good shot. Good lead. Took feathers off. That is why we decided to leave one guy in the blind and as luck would have it that happened to be me. Had those two birds in tight. Super tight and got the double. Picked them up as Jack and Tyler were coming back. They each shot a Mallard Drake. They were rushing back to the blind after they saw the massive amount of birds flying overhead. And we jumped in the blind as fast as we could and it wasn't much longer before we had some more ducks come by. Fistfuls of green, there ain't nothing better. It just kind of makes you wonder how many birds were in the spot like the prior days, you know, like how many thousands. Because the more that stack in there, the more that are going to keep stacking. Alright, only about an hour in. We got three green heads. That's not a bad day. Not a bad day at all. I hope we get a few more. Alright, we put some spinners out. We're seeing some ducks, but only a few are giving us the look. Let's see if these spinners can't bring them in. Shortly thereafter, we decided to make a move and set up straight in front of us as the slew curved around. And there was actually like a little peninsula with thicker cattails. So we decided to set up there. And as soon as we got out there, a group of three or four flew by once again and dumped into that same spot that the earlier three had. So Jack decided to go and jump them. Crazy, they don't just dump in here and land by themselves in a pocket, but... That sounds like an old jar, though. They like to be separate. Those are some big old drinks. Good shot. Who shot that? Nice! Tyler got his limit. They don't decoy much prettier than that. So Tyler was done with his mild limit. Tyler, that's his name. Yeah, I've talked to Tyler. He decided to grab some decoys and throw them on the other side to try to really get them to center up on us. And right after we got done doing that, here comes another wave of mallards. Alright, almost nine o'clock and we are three mallards away from being limited out. I need two myself. Jack needs one and Tyler is done. He's just waiting on a bonus deck. And then it's probably like nine o'clock. When they come and decoy, they decoy in super tight, but a lot of them are just keep going up. I'm guessing we can hear them actually. So a lot of live decoys we're competing with. But I don't know, I think if we wait long enough we'll get her finished out here. It's getting really chilly though. We got a nice little wind. I bet it's cold out there. When Matt has that hat on with the little ear flaps, you know it's cold. Oh, perfect. Perfect shot. I'm assuming that most of their shots are five to 15 yards away. I should go down there. All right, we'll do that. I mean, you can just tell on the shot camera. I'm the always the last one. I mean, I can from looking at them long enough how close these birds are. They're close. Jack finished out his limit on that wave of ducks. I was just too awestruck by all the birds and couldn't pick one out. So, wanted to note, the pressure was on me once again. Luckily though, I didn't have to wait long. Oh, the sky's black. Look at this. Oh my. That's right. Another wave once again descended upon us and it was probably the biggest wave that we saw all day. And there's just ducks everywhere. Once again, they were right over my head and I just couldn't pick one out until I finally saw a green head cupping in and I dropped him and then Tyler and Jack shot at some Widgen. They didn't get him though, unfortunately. And then there was another green head that dumped in and I pulled up and shot him too for my second double of the day. Look at it. I mean, unbelievable amount of birds. It's wave after wave. Oh my gosh. That'd just be something just cool to see just to be a part of. And we were done. Meaning that you're not shooting our atom. Just to see that sky fill up is incredible. I figured we'd count our blessings and go home with a Mallard limit before 10 a.m. I'm good with a Mallard limit. That's a good day. Yeah, I would be too. All right. That's a day all bands are made of. That'd be something. One day left in the season. Tomorrow's the last day and we got a three man Mallard limit before 10 o'clock. Not a bad day. Had to do a little jump shooting. Had a few groups that would land a little far down. Beautiful big old left up birds. For the most part, most of these birds are decoying and decoying close. I had my improved cylinder in my 28 gauge and that was pretty fun. These are real big old nice Mallards just great day. All green limit. Can't really beat that. That's awesome. Great way to send out the duck season. But that's all I have for you guys today. Thank you so much for watching. I enjoyed it. Check out his video guys. Definitely a great hunt. I hope you guys enjoyed that as much as I did. I never get sold. I've watched that video more than once. I can tell you that.
