Today was just plain cold. We’ve had duck hunters come in and say how brutally cold this morning’s hunts were but ducks were out there like crazy. So many redheads flying around. The high was 36 while the low was 25 with light to gentle winds. Gusts up to 32mph. Currently it’s 36, feels like 25, with W winds around 9mph. Gusts around 22mph. Tomorrow will hold similar temps and winds. The early morning and late night shouldn’t feel as cold (low of 32) but we will see.
Sound water temp: 42-49
