My opinion is it's better to pick em up daily, and adjust #s and kinds based on what the birds are doing. Others in group argue to leave em out all year, which we've been doing, but Ive never seen 300 ducks in a circle close around levee and a dozen standing on levee there, ever. Larger the circle, further out they stop.



Fewer/daily pickup/adjustments?

or

Big numbers/leave out/same all season?



seems like no-brainer to me but would like opinions/experiences

Where in Ne La? All the blinds I hunt up there leave them out all year
