 Deer hunting while duck huntingI've tried researching multiple different websites and haven't found the answer I'm looking for. If it's been asked here please point me in the right direction. Anyway my question is i found some islands on the river with oxbows in them while scouting. They look like good duck holes but the edges are lined with deer tracks. Can I legally shoot a deer while duck hunting? If I do shoot a deer do I have to stop duck hunting after I shoot one? I live in Louisiana, I don't know if laws on this would vary state to state. Any help is appreciated

Re: Deer hunting while duck hunting Do you carry slugs with you or a deer rifle?

Re: Deer hunting while duck hunting Slugs. Don't carry buckshot or you run the risk of that whole lead shot issue. One of the guys that ducks hunts near us deer hunts out of his blind with a rifle at the same time he duck hunts.

Re: Deer hunting while duck hunting Sounds good. I could bring my rifle but I feel like it would be over kill. The opposite bank is only 30 yards, i will be bringing a few slugs with me in the morning. Thanks

Re: Deer hunting while duck hunting Make sure whatever choke you're using for steel shot can also handle slugs. Normally slugs should be shot out of an open or IC choke.

Re: Deer hunting while duck hunting Unscrew your choke, drop in a slug and go to work. I've brought home several deer and hogs this way from the duck blind.

Re: Deer hunting while duck hunting I have an old youth model single shot 4/10 I'm going to bring with me. I figure I'll already have it loaded so I don't have to worry about unloading or loading, il just pull up and shoot if needed.

Re: Deer hunting while duck hunting Isn't it illegal to carry lead shot of any kind while hunting waterfowl?
