When I first got into the sport in the mid 80's we were 30 days and 3 ducks.........loved every dang minute of it.
Duck hunting has always been somewhat of an esoteric sport. Many many people consider it a rich man's sport. There are more ducks, largely in part to the decades of help from DU and other non-profit groups...........and LARGELY because sportsman have contributed many a buck to make it happen........all the while consuming masive quantities of alcohol as well. I think migration patterns have changed.........I think they always have changed....... I think what hurts us now are air cooled engines and lazy duck hunters. Guys beleive they can let their blinds look like crap, no cover, leave thier decoys out all year, run all over the habitat with a gazillion HP surface drive and still expect to kill ducks. Duck Hunting is as stealthy as tracking a big buck......when done correctly. I watch thousands and thousands of ducks pass over every year, high as a jetliner. I am convinced they know we are down here.......... If there is no food, and too many "booms" would you stop? It would be like stopping at a Popeye's fried chicken that is notoriously out of food AND is loaded with a group of thugs carrying guns. |
