      I did this kind of hunt on the 8th of November and it was not that rough. It does feel awful lonely though being out there by yourself. I could see the tending boat still out about 300-400 yards from me. :)

      @@MidValleyMercenaries It was the first time I had done it, but always wanted to. It was part of a Veteran's Duck Camp that went for about 2 weeks. I liked it, but the boat was not comfortable to lay in and hard to shoot from. I think the "sit up and shoot" style needs to be practiced. :)

    The tough shooting is because of laying on your back and the wave action. If you had the ShotKam going, you'd see how wobbly your aim was. ;-)

    Where do you live?? And where do you do the shot gun pattern videos? Just curious because I live in the Bay Area, and looking to move up north to the foothills, or even at the snow line.
    Just subscribed! Looks like you’re right where I want to live.
    I’ll be out at RVO duck hunting next week, hopefully bringing home some ducks!

      Are you serious man? You’re looking awfully hard to find something wrong with us. Shouldn’t waste my time but look again. His 3rd shell didn’t feed right. Bolt was locked to the rear and shell had already come out of the magazine port. Only way to unload is to chamber it and than eject it. Maybe you just weren’t aware but good catch anyways. Fish and game watch all these I guarantee it and I welcome them to. There wasn’t one thing done wrong here ask any dfg officer
