This dive sure paid off.
After a few cold days there was only a small hole in the ice on one of the local ponds we visit to watch the wintering waterfowl. On this day the fishing was good and a Common Goldeneye hauled in a monster Crayfish and even got away with it before the gulls spotted him. Lucky Duck!

Hi and thanks. There was a ton of action that afternoon and we did get lucky to catch it. You just never knew where a duck would come up with a catch as there very several diving at once. Hope your weekend is going well.

HI and thanks. It was fun that day as there was plenty of action and the fishing was good. There were both goldeneyes and mergansers fishing at the same spot and all diving at once. You just never knew where one would come up with a catch. Hope your weekend is going well.
