Our duck season started on 1st September, but I won't be going out until a bit later in the month.
There are still quite a few "flappers" about, as there were some late broods due to the bad Spring weather.
I may have an evening on the wheat stubbles before they plough them in.
Got my gun greased, the airboat gassed up, my decoys ready to load, my license in my pocket, my coffee thermos at hand, my shells have come in....all I need now is my duck stamp and the 22nd to come on round
That's why I quit duck hunting public waters years ago. Too crowded and skybusters.
Ain't worth the effort. Seems the ducks got ran off Seminole earlier and earlier. If you can't scout there properly it's no good usually.
We just don't have the public ducks like years past.
Now the private lakes and ponds is a different matter.....

Three words to fix your duck hunting problems. Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas. Duck hunting @ Seminole got bad when Warren Coco developed the Go Devil and it found its way to Lake Seminole. I had the second Go devil around Lake Seminole and we killed ducks like never before for about a month before every one started buying them. Now I like to go out of state, pick a body of water, and go figure out the ducks. Much more challenging and if I cant figure them out in a couple of days, or we get frozen in, We go to the fields and hunt private land. We dont have ducks in Ga. Face it folks , thank god for our deer and turkeys b/c if we had to rely on our great state for ducks and grouper, we'd all be SOL!!! Thank God I live in Georgia and thank god every where else aint too far to drive!!!!
