so your comment of more hunters creates more habitat is a joke.

Agreed. Crawfish ponds are not favorable duck or goose habitat. I have seen ducks and geese use crawfish ponds, but not often. I had a camp by a crawfish pond last year, and the geese would come in a big wave usually mid day. If you hunted it you had 1 shot and that was it. As far as the bullseye thing, that is absolutely the truth. Birds avoid that like the plague. More hunters is NOT a good thing for hunting. Regardless of how much habitat you have, if they are consistently pressured (which they are) they WILL leave and find somewhere else to be. Wouldnt anyone? Also, i think the blind per acre ratio has sky rocketed over the past 10 years. Not a good thing at all
