Watching birds come in, and then actually calling them in and have em locked up is something hard to explain without experiencing it...freakin awesome feeling.

I like the fast action of ducks. But watching a flock of ten specks cupped up flipping and cutting air is something else. When they flip on their side and drop about 20ft straight down thats what gets my blood pumping.

Or could any office hunter kill a limit in a good blind?

The number one factor in killing ducks is being where they want to be(good blind not $1500 blind) without that you have nothing no matter what kind of hunter or caller you are. Once you are there you absolutly have to be hid with a good spread. Then just shoot them and look like a hero. Calling helps but its somewhere like #8 on the list.

It's been said that there are 2 places you can kill ducks, where they WANT to go and where they DON'T MIND going. I think that's pretty accurate. If you are where they DON'T WANT to go you will get very frustrated watching or hearing the other blinds. Learn all you can about a area before you put time, effort and money into a blind.

Couldnt have said it better! A couple weeks ago they cam in flipping right on top of the blind. They were moving so fast they looked like teal. Didnt have a prayer on a shot but hey ended up landing.

I believe calling is a huge part of it...

Look at all the yoo-hoo's in thornwell.. just because they have a goose blind, they go get a dozen flocked decoys and a RCC call, they think they will kill them... NOT TRUE..

you have to know what to do, how to do it, and when to do it..

My buddy has a blind there that is surrounded by 5 blinds within a half mile from all directions, and they havent killed near the birds that we have killed.. and one of those 5 blinds killed 250+ birds out of it last year and some idiot drove his fourwheeler down the blind levee knocking all the grass down and making his blind stick out like a sore thumb..

people just dont have a clue

^^ I agree. Especially with the last statement

That's funny, I have been texting brother Nate about duck hunting too.
Do you really want to get your buddy hooked on a new passion that will consume all his time and money. There's no catch and release in hunting. My hunting buddy often asks why I don't shoot every duck that comes in range like he does. Sometimes I just like to watch them fly and circle, then only when they commit do I shoot them.

Bdub it hard for me to take time out of fishing. Ive only been saltwater fishing for two years so i try and put 110 Percent of my time into it learning every single thing i can from ever person i can. I really dont think i could fit another hobby in bc of the love i have for trout fishing. Guys i dont doubt that its fun and an awesome rush but for me i just dont think it can compare to the pursuit of that big trout!

Maybe if duck hunting wasnt during the BEST TIME TO TROUT FISH!!!! but i guess what helps fishing this time of year is most ppl from this area all duck hunt so they stay off the lake. Which allows for all the big girls to come out and play! So yall stay hunting :) Imma go fishin :p

bgizzle 12-05-2013 11:11 AM

i agree calling is very important in goose hunting more so than duck hunting in my opinion.

Bdub 12-05-2013 12:49 PM

You can catch trout year round, duck season is just a few months long, Im gonna try to chase some trout this weekend during the split but also gotta get after that big deer I got lurkin around...give and take...You got the rest of your life to catch fish!
