The South shoreline of West Matagorda Bay. Hard to beat a November duck hunt combined with fishing the "guts" for trout and redfish!

The American Widgeon, or Baldpate has distinctive markings. I like the cattails with their "cottony" heads.

My buddies and I had a duck lease for 11 years. We could always depend on a limit of pintails when we were hunting the pit blind. I even got my old chocolate lab, Molly, in the painting.
