helping a rookie out
I've been hunting for years. Lots of big game and tons of birds but I have never been duck hunting. I live in San Angelo Texas (West Texas) and I don't think there is a lot of duck hunting around here. I am wanting to get into it but don't know where to start. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks for the help.

Re: helping a rookie out
Shouldn't bee too hard. - Find out where/if there are any ducks around. - Check the laws and get permission so you can hunt them. - Spend shitloads of money and time and exhaust all your credit cards in the pursuit of said birds. That's pretty much how it's done.

I will trade you a Poule Deaux and Teal hunt for a deer hunt.

Re: helping a rookie out
I was surprised at how much waterfowl were out the when they have water when I went out to Bradey. Mallards and Pintails every where. Year before it was dry and no birds to be seen.
