Glad you had a good time!
Post some ideas in the recipes section on dim dere ducks!

I was gonna start picking your brain about Sav Wildlife Ref! There has got to be some teal and other ducks coming in there somewhere.

The lab belongs to a friend. It was his first hunt in conditions like that, he did well.

Those farms are flooded rice and beans, the duck eat there and come to the flooded timber where we hunted blinds.

You will note on the map for SNWR the locations for ducks allowed.

My interpretation of the best places would be as close to the wildlife drive as possible to take advantage of them going and coming from the colonial period rice fields, say in or near Steamboat Cut or so. There is a canal at about 32' 10.8800 x 81' 8.8956 that has held some interest and directly to the west of it is some mud flat marsh to hide in and set up decoys.
Be VERY careful there with the tide fluctuations and mud flats. You'd be better to start the first time at sunup from the Houlihan ramp and look the area over for obstacles and good boat blind locations.
Be sure to print out and SIGN the permit/map.
Now, up near Big Collins Creek there is a couple of submerged river boats that I thought might be good for some duck setting too.
