I take a shot at an incoming pintail. I was using a 12-gauge Benelli Vinci that morning. What a nice-handling gun - it won Field & Stream's Best of the Best award in 2009.Jay Cassell

Some shots from Bay Flats. What a great way to kick off the holidays. Duck season ran from Halloween to the first Sunday after Thanksgiving, then picked up on December 12 and ran to January 24. Now is not too early to book a hunt for next year. Check out www.bayflatslodge.com for details.Jay Cassell
