I've seen more mallards and geese than doves where I have been dove hunting in Howard County. On Wednesday, I saw all of one dove, killed all of one dove, and had 15 mallards fly over me at 3:00 in the afternoon. Then, as I was getting ready to leave at 5:30, I had a wood duck land in the pond.
Problem with the mallards is that they are flying a little ways up there and they look like they are on a mission. The most I saw in one group was about 100. I'll probably waterfowl hunt up there a day or two for early duck season in the evening, but it is going to be a crap shoot.
