Lone Star Hunting Forum

Went Teal hunting this morning. Left Lubbock around 5:15 a.m. My friend set up the decoy last night and we have blinds set up. There were 3 of us and it did not take long to hit the limit for a total of 12. The last teal had a band on his leg. Wish it was mine.

Congrats on the limit and on the band, a BWT is a trophy to me with a band its just that much better!

Why is there a band on the leg?

At DieselCash - They track them the tags. If you call in or enter via internet the tag information, they can tell where the duck was first released and track the migration patterns. This tag read, "Laurel MD" and I believe the year was 07.

Cool, great job and it sounds like yall had a great time.

Cool, hope you reported it so they have the information.

Thanks for the information!

At slimpickins: Yes sir. It was reported proudly my friend.

Cool deal.

Congratulations to your buddy for that band! That is awesome. I am still looking for my first banded bird. Someday......
