Decoys, Calling, a Kitchen and a Lost Duck

Don’t call too much to the ducks. Many times, a duck hunter is much like a turkey hunter. When he or she buys a call, he feels like he ought to be using it a lot. The real secret, if there is one, is to believe in your decoy spread. Believe that your spread will pull the ducks into gun range.

7 Years of Duck Hunting Success for Will Lindsey

I hunt from the same blind just about every day of duck season. One of the reasons I can do that is that just about all the ducks we hunt are moving up and down the flyway. We’ll often get new flights of ducks that fly into the fields in Arkansas across the river, and get up the next morning and fly to the WMA to rest.

Duck Hunting in a Floating Duck Blind

Our duck blind is a work of art. We’ve taken plywood panels and mounted them to the base of an old pontoon boat. We can shoot seven hunters out of this blind. But most of the time, we only hunt five, because the blind is much more comfortable with only five hunters in it.

Decoying Ducks Properly is Key to Successful Duck Hunting

Primarily, we use our calling to get the ducks’ attention and cause them to look at our decoys. We've learned that if our decoy spread is set up right, and we get the ducks’ attention with some fairly-loud calling, the ducks will usually come down.

Opening Day Duck Hunting on the Mississippi Flyway

I hunt just off the Mississippi River on private land. On Thanksgiving weekend, 2017, we saw mallard, ring-necked duck, teal, gadwall and pintail ducks. We spotted over 100 flights of ducks coming down the Mississippi River from the North. We were able to work about 20 different flights each day into our decoys.

Pay Attention to Beaver Dams When Planting for Waterfowl

Beaver dams and beavers provide good places to hunt ducks but bad places to manage timber. Beavers destroy thousands of acres of bottomland hardwoods each year by creating dams and flooding that mature timber. However, Bobby Cole, the president of Mossy Oak BioLogic, reports that waterfowlers have learned that if they break-up those beaver dams in the late spring and let the water run out of them, then they can plant BioLogic Guide’s Choice and

Geese, Blinds and Plenty of Waterfowling Fun at Texas’ Kent Outdoors

I’m often asked about goose hunting, and I believe that goose hunting is more weather-dependent than duck hunting. Sometimes our geese will show up right after Thanksgiving or possibly after Christmas. We do get a few snow geese that come through north Texas. However, generally, they usually come down the flyway further west or further east of us.

J. J. Kent Tires of Deer Hunting and Learns to Hunt Texas Ducks

Years and years ago I was sitting in a deer stand with my dad, and I decided I was tired of deer hunting. I’d taken enough deer to know that I could. I decided to look for a different type of hunting. A couple of days later, some friends of mine invited me to go duck hunting. When I watched my friends blow those duck calls and saw those ducks respond to the calling, change
