I here it does not take much cold to push them south. Anyone have a general guideline for mid Michigan area?

Allot of them split the Mid-Michigan area since the first week IMO. I think those cold nights moved em on. We were hunting a marsh that was absolutely loaded with them. Had a great shoot there. Went back a couple more times since and it was very subpar. Been hunting a couple other marshes that had lots of them buzzing early and late, but now i only see a few. Same with the teal. Seems the "bomb squads" are dwindling right now....That said, I have however shot a few nice flight birds and seen some blacks moving around tonight...Theyre coming. :yes:
