When Old Ducks Become New Ducks

Barnie Calef | Mossy Oak ProStaff I’m often asked, “At the end of the season, when a severe cold front is coming in that moves the old ducks out of your area and brings new ducks into the place you're hunting, how do you take those new ducks?” As an example, 520,000 stale ducks are sitting on the Missouri River 120 miles from my hunting camp.

When I'm hunting stale ducks during the late season, I use two types of decoy spreads. I’ll put out smaller decoy spreads in a really secluded area and perhaps only two dozen decoys in a pothole.
