Tough and Slick

[fishfighter]

decided to buy my duck stamp for the first time ever to go try and sneak up on some wood ducks in one of the areas that i deer hunt, well them lil things are slick to someone sneaking up on them, woods were thick where they were and couldn't get on them and they knew which way to fly to keep away from my steel shot, snuck up on a spot where i thought one landed and waited then had two land in front of me, i tried to double them up but nope the second one flew away, took two shots to stop this one from moving

pic didn't post let me try again

I have had them little suckers scare the crap out of me a few times while walking in the woods.

Lol....same here. Those suckers can land in a mud hole.

Thats a pretty bird! Sounds like you need a little blind on that pothole

yeah i am no duck hunter and it is on federal land so setting up a blind is out of the question, but i can go hide in some natural cover that is there around the little ponds,

you think i should set up there in the dark before sunrise or what??????

Best strategy for wood ducks is go one morning and scout to see where they're flying and where they're going. Then next morning go get in that spot. Shoot straight cause it doesn't last long.

if done right it doesn't have to last long for 3 ducks, trying to put together a christmas gumbo, was the whole reason i was after them
