That was basically what everyone except this one fella argued. This one guy was trying to say that if you drive up to a spot, see ducks, get out, and hunt them, you are breaking the law.
Says 11 guys in Pennsylvania lost their licenses last year for this. Even went as far as to say that federal officials are the ones that told him that is what the law means.
Everyone else said the same exact thing that's been said here, and that is the way I've always interpreted it.
I don't think a game warden is going to write you a ticket for driving up to a spot, parking (legally), moving the required distance from a road, and shooting ducks. Assuming you aren't trespassing or breaking any other law, you've done nothing wrong.
Now shooting from a road, or shooting from a vehicle is a whole 'nother story.
