TEAL!!!
 

Went down to sweetlake this morning and my God, they teal were thicker than Mosquitos. Literally thousands of birds in the rice mixed teal and just as many squealers. I've had reports from the thornwell area of the same. Here is a pic of my buddy's field in thornwell.

I didn't get a pic in sweetlake but imagine that wad in the pic as far as the eye could see!

Holy crap!

Bang Bang Bang

That makes me happy

Thats good to see. We just back from ours and didn't see a bird.

Nice...

Spent the day at a buddys house yesterday and he showed me some video he took of his place in sweetlake and it was ridiculous the amount of birds they had on their farm. They were at the blind working and the birds were coming into the pond constantly.

Just passed by our rice field and saw about 50 or so, but 2nd crop is tall so could be more....

i'm sure they're in there, but if they don't have to get up they won't.

I'm soooo ready! Limit or bust huh "w"

We have 6 guys hunting open weekend....we will have our limit in 8mins max

X1000:D

The best thing about teal season is even if your spot isn't holding any birds right now, more than likely you will still shoot your limit opening morning! They tend to come out of the woodwork.

Yes your right.....I have never not limited out on open weekend ......before rita we had one year were after 1st week it got slow

From my experience marsh hunting gets better later in the teal season. But last year it was good all year in some places. Rice fields tend to get shot out quick.

x2!!!! That's why i think if i hunt in mermentau cove it'll be just opening day then the marsh the rest of the season

I agree. Last year it got better for us the last week of the season.

I just shot my computer! I'M FIRED UP!!!!!!

Just think next weekend we'll be blasting some blue rockets!!!!! I can't wait!!!!! Come on sept 15th.

good luck to all of you going... i will be buried in the books.

I hunt in a field near Sweetlake and my teal hunting got progressively better towards the end of the season. The last weekend was the best for me by far. I'm curious to see if the same trend continues or if that was just an anomoly.

Had teal all last season in Thornwell area.

I hate teal .... HATE EM!!!!!!!

Have anything to do with your screen name? :rolleyes:

Yes sir, I'm not proud of it it's a problem. I'll start working on it sept. 15th.

Getting closer!!!!!!!!!!!

I dreamed about killin teal last night

Did I kill em all again?

the fields dont get shot out, you just have to adjust your hunting times. I promise they still go there it just may not be at first light

The fields I have hunted you could sit from daylight til dark and not fire a shot after the first week. Guess it just depends how close your field is to marsh

I know last year at our marsh we were full of widgeon grass and you couldn't chase them suckers out of there. After we would kill limits they would still be coming in flock after flock. Our marsh looks even better than it did last year so it should be a teal wacking out there. I can't wait!!!!!!!

counting the days

Father-n-law called me and told me he saw a big wad flying over our marsh a little while ago.

If never hunted a ricefield in the last 4yrs that you could shoot em out and with the SE marshes salty and screwed up and everyone else droughted we oughta wack n stack until our shoulder ate blue n black.. Lol it's gonna be one for the ages.. Mark my words

Teal that is. Big ducks still has a few variables IMO

Seen a flock of about 20 flying over some 2nd crop rice on my way home in Holmwood.

Just drove thru Pine Island and there was a field right next to the road that had at least 3 thousand teal in it. I have pictures and will show em tomorrow. most I have ever seen in one place, many other fields along the way there to Jennings had em also

That's how they were in sweetlake

Man y'all are gonna jinx the crap out of us...

guy on another website that is a god at duck hunting said he aint seen none and if he said it then its the gospel:D

Just like our trout fisherman here lol

Yea...he musta went an night.

I didn't know Ray Charles was a duck hunter!

:rotfl::grinpimp:

Lease in Texas is full of Teal. We usually get more as the season goes on, but this year we are holding a hole bunch. Should be fun.

My farm in vidalia is full of blue wings in the millet an milo flooded fields.. Should be interesting opener again..
