Chris, you guys have all the feed in the world in those front marshes...i'm with you...can't understand why they left that area.

We ended the day with 4 birds--2 redheads and 2 teal it was like a ghost town around my blind. Didn't jump up but maybe a handful of ducks on our way out from our marsh or the flooded pasture on the other side. We need a weather change bad imo, and things will get back to normal. Second thing and it really makes me sick to my stomach thinking about it. This year we bought 3 dz brand new greenhead gear decoys, and rigged them texas style. We put them out saturday morning, and didn't go back til yesterday so these decoys sat out for a day and a half. Well some low life pos stole a dozen and a half of them. Never had a theft problem out there so this is a real shock to me. Looked in the all the ponds surrounding us thinking that maybe by some freak of nature the strong south wind we had sunday pushed them somewhere else. I work really hard to buy nice stuff to try and enjoy it and bring others to help enjoy it with me. Some people need to get off thier *** and get their own stuff and stop trying to ruin other peoples time with this childish stuff. What i really don't understand is that the boat, motor and everything else was right there and all they took was decoys. Now i have to go and spend more money that i worked for to buy more decoys cause someone is too lazy to get their own. Sorry for the long read just really needed to vent.
Yeah, some little slimes stole one of the batteries and a 5 gallon can of gasoline out of my boat while it was parked in my yard the other night. Mad and Sad at the same time. Vengence is mine says the Lord but I'm glad I didn't catch them in the act, I might have done something that I would regret later. It only stuff, but it was my stuff.

First, I feel your pain. The start to my year wasn't god either. I think the warm weather has pushed the birdsback up alittle. I live in Lacassine and have noticed large groups flying north. Have spoken to a relative in Alexandria. He stated there are birds in every hole holding water there. SO I think when the weather becomes more consistant hunts will improve. If you need help with Pooldo eradication I will gladly assist.

Limit on Saturday...0 sunday. Birds in GC got the memo sat either b/c of nasty south east wind or the pressure.

No offense guys but come on, duck season has been open for FOUR days and already the excuses are pouring out No water, southeast wind, full moon, refuges, what else?

You guys should feel lucky there is a drought statewide or else the birds would be in north Louisiana, now they are forced to come down to the marsh to find water. Still have 56 more days to go

I guess if you would have seen the clouds of ducks on the lease friday you would've been a bit ...

I know its just frustrating.

I do, I have a special place in my heart for potstirring with duck hunters! I have never heard of more excuses from a bunch of people.

I really really like to hear from deer hunters that say the deer have gone nocturnal:*****:or they are not "moving" which basically means that the deer did not present themselves when they peered out of their window from the box stand on one of their shooting lanes from the hours of 7-9 am or 3-5 pm
