I've killed many of mallards in the Ramah area over the years, especially when I was at LSU. You won't see a good bit of big ducks in that area till it get's really cold. The last really good year was when it froze over around 1998-99.

99' was the best yr we will see in our lifetime. I hope it's not. But as far as big ducks it was the best big duck yr for sure...

Agreed!! Mallards (in large numbers) don't come this far south like they once did. They stay just below the freeze line. I know some of you guys will disagree but that's because you aren't old enough to have seen the number of mallards that we once had every year in south louisiana.

I definitely agree. My buddy has a place in Columbia, LA I went to a few times last year. I have never shot so many mallards. Then I have been on a few hunts in Arkansas where you have flocks of 40 mallards working at one time. I am convinced majority don't come past north LA anymore.

About 99% of duck hunters in N La would say they don't come past Arkansas anymore, I wish they could take off the blinders of how good they/we have it still to this day. Can''t wait to get up there next week

Some of my best hunts have been in N La/S Ark. We can only go for 1 day next week, but that's just enough time to squeeze in a hunt Thursday morning in Jones.
