Reeling in those ducks

Every now and then, hunting and fishing enthusiasts are able to combine their passions on the same outing - and this is commonly referred to as a 'cast and blast'. A last day wood duck hunt, deep in a cypress swamp with a hunting party that did not have a labrador retriever, brought this combo to the attention of Lowcountry Outdoors. In what can only be described as an 'Instant Classic' image, the waterfowling anglers used their prowess with fishing tackle to retrieve their ducks from the swamp after the successful woodie shoot. Well Done!
