What Happens at Honey Brake Lodge after Limiting Out on Ducks

Another question I'm often asked when people are considering hunting with us at Honey Brake is, “What can we do if we have taken our limit of ducks before 9 or 10?” Guests who want to can shoot sporting clays; or, you can do an upgrade and hunt wild hogs; or, you can go fishing in Larto Lake. Our lodge is on beautiful Larto Lake, part of the Larto-Saline Complex. Lake Larto is rated the

Why No Snow Means No Geese at Honey Brake Lodge

I'm often asked, “Do you have snow goose hunts at Honey Brake after the duck season is over like many duck-hunting operations do?” Well, no, we don’t. We don’t promote snow goose hunting. We’re not opposed to it, but because our lodge is so remote, and those snow geese are so unpredictable, we’re not sure we can deliver the type of waterfowl hunting that our hunters will expect. We’re all about having our hunters see

Late Season Scent Strategies

Late season is a great time to intercept bucks cruising for that last receptive doe. If breeding has been finished for some time you may be better off appealing to their curiosity or hunger, but estrus scents like Special Golden Estrus or breeding scents like Active Scrape can work well this period. Plain buck or doe urine or food smells like corn scent, essence of apple or acorn lure can also be successful.

Hunting with Drew Keeth and Honey Brake Lodge

Sometimes when I’m waterfowling, I really don’t want to shoot. I’d rather just watch. One of those times was the first time I went waterfowling at Honey Brake Lodge in central Louisiana. I saw 100 or more ducks lighting in the decoys, and I was so excited that I wanted to observe that spectacle as long as I could before the ducks started dropping, and the other ducks raced to get away from the lead

Samantha Wolfe’s British Lab Mossy and Waterfowl

Although my dog Mossy enjoys pheasant hunting, nothing flips her switch on more than going waterfowl hunting. She is such a water dog that I really have to stay on her to keep her out of the water when we’re duck hunting. Mossy was bred to be a retrieving dog. She retrieved her first duck when she was 6 months old. I didn’t really train her to be a retriever. She just saw the duck

How to Find and Hunt Late Season Bucks

If you've always hung up your bow at the end of peak rut you don't know what you’re missing. Even in our northern latitudes, some years you may have rut activity that lasts through the month of December and even in to January. Even if all the does have been bred, ambushing a buck on his way to a food source to replenish the fat he lost during the rut is one of Mark and

The Rest of the Story of Samantha Wolfe’s Elk of a Lifetime

When the elk slowed down and kept walking toward us, I could tell that the bull I’d shot was hit because he was limping. When the bulls were at 250 yards, I shot my bull four more times, however, he never flinched. He didn’t move at all, and neither did the other two bulls with him. I thought I’d missed the bull completely.

You don’t have to name your dog Mossy to be part of the Mossy Oak family. You don’t have to have your senior high school project include using Mossy Oak logos.
