However, not the land owners fault if there are no birds but he should have it set-up right.....ie....I think it is BS having a 70 acre pond with 2 acres of water showing. We always pay our guy who we lease from in full before the season and we have never asked him for money back on a bad year. Also, when we have a hole in the levee we fix it. To sum it up, you have some bad land owners just like you have some bad people who want to lesae. My uncle has been leasing from the same guy for 14 years and I think it helps to develope a friendship.

What, are you kidding me? It's called being a landowner. If I lease you a spot, it is not up to me to do a darn thing to for "your" hunting. Now, if you want to pay to have it plowed, if you want to pay to have it flooded, if you want to pay to have it planted, then we can talk about the cost associated with each of those items or any other you can dream up. Tractors cost money, fuel cost money, farm equipment cost money, and low and behold, my time cost money! You need to learn how to lease hunting rights before you come on here bashing landowners! I know I will not lease out a blind for $3500, then eat the fuel bill to flood it, or the tractor time to plow it. I have heard of guys getting a $3500 lease, then wanting the landowner to do all kinds of work the week before the season. Get it in writing on exactly what you expect for the right to hunt that persons land.
