Super User Root beer Posted December 21, 2011 Super User Posted December 21, 2011 I went on my first duck hunting trip this past weekend at Lake Guntersville. We saw A LOT, I mean A LOT of ducks, but we could never get them in range. We talked to the park ranger at the state park where we was staying and he said there been a lot of hunters out there this season. My theory is with weather remaining steady and ducks are staying in the area longer are accustom to the duck calls? We had decoys out and my cousin would call them every so often, but they wouldn't budge. They be floating on the lake well out of shotgun range or flying overhead out of range and just simply ignored the call..What gives?!?!? ha. I really wanted to shoot my first duck, but I rather see hundreds of ducks than no ducks at all. Maybe next time. Quote

bowfish12 Posted December 28, 2011 Posted December 28, 2011 They tend to do that when it's 60 degrees and no wind. Makes it tough. Quote
jignfule Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Location, Location, Location. Set up where they are landing. If they are landing in live ducks in the middle, it makes it tough 1 Quote
