Plenty of water/Plent of birds
 

Went to check water levels today and was surprised to see the number of birds we were holding. I included a few pics of what I saw.....NOW Im ready for sat....:D

O hell YEA

can i come hunting ??? i got everything !!!!!

dang! hope my place looks like that!

Saw a lot of mallards and pintail....but the thing that surprised me more than anything was that the bluewings outnumbered the greenwings 10 to 1.....what is that about? Normally we are done with bluewings and we either have greenwings or none??? Not complaining just wondering

u never answered my question cajunsorc

ill let ya know when i have an opening...got 3 others on the lease with me.

hell yeah,

Curious
 

What area is this? My dad told me we had some geese take the fields we hunt yesterday. 1 st birds of the year around us. Around Jennings/Lake Arthur area.

Good to see
 

Man those are some great pictures...glad to see that you have some birds. Good luck with the opener this weekend.

im ready whenever u are.. PM me..

DANG

all i can say

Made it out to the marsh today and was shocked to see what we had, 2500 to 3000 birds but we got water everywhere even on the road to get there. I can run my boat anywhere right now, don't need no boat runs I have about 5" left to get my boat in. Lots of mallards and pintail with some greys and a pile of ringnecks

My uncle and I got to our lease today about 1:00 in Kaplan to bursh the blind and set out deks.......we scared up at least 200 big ducks....did not notice any teal.
Glad we were holding some....

idk what to do...




Hunt the river marsh, or hunt my ponds?

idk...

I am glad to hear that your blind is holding some birds, I am going tommorow and I hope the same is true for us.

dang..i was pumping out a couple blinds and brushin today...all we saw was 2 greenheads and a couple of flocks of high flying geese the whole day! this was in the elton and pine island area....there is water EVERYWHERE...didn't have a very confident feeling for opening day leaving there today.. but never the less..we'll be there!! lol

great pics, hope they are there for you on sat. After you shoot a few,send them down here.

im ready for the chenier come sat morning

my place just south of white lake. the levee broke bordering white lake and they said we might have to take four wheelers in b/c the water is so high. i hope we got some birds!

I'm thinking the migration patterns are changing.....have noticed this over several years and it seems every year more and more bluewings around....and less and less mallards.....anybody else?

We hunt north of Welsh and normally the bluewings are gone by Mid November. And the Teal we do get after that are migratory greenwings passing through to the marsh.....We'll have em for a day or maybe 2 after a front pushes through and then they are gone too. But considering the snow cover reaching into northern Missouri and the cold temperatures reaching well into Arkansas, I would have thought the bluewings would be in Mexico sippin Margarita's and the greenwings would be here...but it appears that the greenwings haven't gotten here yet...who knows!?!

I bet 95% of the teal we shot this year are green wing. I do not think we shot a blue wing after the first 3-4 days of the season.

Really? where is that at?

i found them
 

Found a pot hole deep in the back swamps of a freinds land.The opening of is about 20 yards across and 10 wide.There was at least fifty green heads and probably 150 wood ducks stacked on top of each other.Should be a good morning saturday.Hopefully ill finally kill a duck this season,And my dog will have one to pick up.

was the corn and milo still above water level? or had they eaten it down a little?

the i49 ponds near alex are some kinda full

Man they always stacked up right there!

the hole
 

I can dang near hit evangeline downs with my bb's from the hole i found.OW I CAN'T WAIT!

weve killed mostly bluewings over the past 4 years, very few greenwings

Good Pics
 

See almost knothing but mallards, I would be pumped!! Good Luck To Everyone Tommorow send em my way!!
