    Short wet hunt.........

    Went back to my honey hole....she's drying up. Hunted some different areas today. the ground was saturated with water. All the snow melted and we had a few inches of rain the end of the week. I hunted between he puddles....found some clad and a Sacagawea dollar. On the walk to the car I got a quarter signal, figuring it was clad I was surprised to pull a 51 rosie. The ground was recently dug so someone missed their target....
