Started out with a nice west wind then the Bay but turned into a bath tub, and it got warm. I hunted in sweat pants, waders and a long sleeve t-shirt all day.

Few buffies were flying, the brown dog guarding the boat while I pick up a duck.

The predicted WNW wind turned into SW afternoon, here's the spread. Can & redhead dekes are off-picture to the left:

Ended the day with 5 buffies, didn't see any big divers. I have never before hunted this spot not killed at least one bluebill or redhead.
I've only killed 4 bluebills this season, the fewest for this late in the season since I started hunting Mobile Bay back in 1997.
