Had a GREAT day out on the water. The morning was really foggy, so the trip up was pretty slow going. We got to the ramp got everything ready and took off to our spot. About a 20 min boat ride and we were at our destination, we got out 3 doz divers and 1 doz mallards. At first light we heard...

I have the past 3 years and only got 1, two years ago. This weekend I saw 3 flush in our marsh on saturday, then 1 on sunday. Season opens Friday but probably won't get out till Saturday morning. All the books I have read says early morning is the best time to hunt them. Does anybody else...

When the season is over...Bluebills, ringnecks, Redheads, GW teal, Shovelers, Pintail, and a few Buffelhead. Ya I know its a poor excuse for a island but 10 years ago it was about 20 ft wide.

My cousin was having trouble with possums in his yard and found that Wal-Mart had the cheapest 870 for sale and bought a Remington 12 gauge....so the thought. The man that sold him the gun opened the box and got the #'s off to register it then my cousin paid for the gun and left. When he got...

It’s been a while since I have had to do this but since I got some new decoys for Christmas I thought I would share a tip that I use on my anchors so they do not scratch my decoys. MY SOLUTION….the “Plastic Dip” that you use to regrip hand tools like pliers. I use the GHG 4oz J-hook anchors and...

Went through my pictures of some past hunts this year and I forgot about this morning. Got 2 redheads, but the sunrise was amazing.

We got our first snow of about 2" and just about everything but creeks and rivers are frozen around here. There is a creek that has about 2' of water in it and about 3' wide. I saw about 20 mallards go down in the creek behind my house so I got my gun and put the slank of them. the creek is...

This is the nicest Hoody I’ve shot, and would like to get it mounted but my #2’s did a little damage to the head. It’s a spot that’s about the size of a pencil with no feathers just a hole where my 2’s hit. The tip of the beak took a shot also. Is this fixable or should I just hold out for...

Like I've said I love to SHARE where I'm seeing ducks, this is my dad with a 4 man limit of mallards and 1 GW. I did not go on this hunt but my dad and 3 of his friends went to a spot that I have been scouting for a week now. I'm heading to the same spot tomorrow, hope for the same results.

An aerator and 50 mph wind opened up a big part of the pond at my house. Seen lots of ducks, tomorrow were heading up north for a hunt around Tri-County for Mallards and some Divers. Good luck to all as its starting to pick up.

But, our wonderful DNR has the reservoir so low that EVERY boat ramp has about 10-15 feet of muck before getting to the water. Went to the main office and asked WTF was going on and they said that they were renting a "extend backhoe" to clean the muck from the ramps. I asked when they would be...

Last weekend in a check station parking lot, a guy came in from hunting and said he had been shot. He said he was sitting in his tree stand and heard a shot go off about 500 yards from his stand and a few seconds later he heard something coming though the short tree tops and hit him in the left...

On the ducks unlimited website the Migration map people post what the migration activity is in their area. Thing is, one person posts "Peak Migration" and right beside it somebody posts "No migration Few local birds". So whats the real story is the migration starting to come down with this...

Went 3 days this week with my uncle and my cousin and got 13 total. 11 roosters and 2 hens, now Im ready to get some ducks in the area.

I have hunted puddle ducks for about 10 years now and always use life size decoys. Me and my Uncle just bought a TDB and getting into diver hunting I’ve been diver duck hunting before but the guy we go with is a clown and doesn’t know what total concealment is. All our decoys that we use are...

It was about 10am and we were about to end our day of hunting a chain of 4 public lakes around Tri-county. We just got our blind down off the boat and put away when a big ball of about 30 ducks flew over so we decided to stay a while longer. We put our blind back up and just got sat down when...

I am thinking of getting a Patternmaster choke tube for my Remington 11-87 XCS, but I have heard good and bad things about choke tubes and steel shot. What is the best kind of choke tube to get or should I even get one? Thanks for the help

I have been hunting twice this year and have not got a duck yet, haven't even shouldered my gun. A friend of mine shot 4 snow geese yesterday. I can't believe they are around already this year. anybody doing good around indiana?? I hunt mostly in Wabash. I have never had a season start off...

Did anybody watch the last episode of American Safari?? I normally don't really like Tom but this was probably one of the best single episodes that I have ever seen. 3 limits of 21 Drake Golden Eye, that would be any waterfowl hunters dream. It was truly amazing.

Shot this Pintail in January. The story about it is that me and a friend of mine were on our way to a woods to go rabbit hunting and i saw some ducks in a puddle in a corn field. We got the binoculars on them and there was 12 pintails. We were trying to decide to try and stalk up on them and...
