I'm kinda on the fence on this one. We usually have a pretty solid freeze up in the NW corner here by that time. But late october/early november is pretty much worthless so I could trade those dates for at least a chance at late season birds. I'm just a newbie when it comes to duck hunting so I'm open to discussion.
