That was an awesome grey hole for sure. Since you have 2 months vacation time you should do well on public.

I dunno, adventuring is fun but if I could actually get on a productive duck lease I don't think I could let it go.

sorry I didnt get back with you, Guy...I ended up letting all my leases go this year also, 100% public for me this year at a certain point public just becomes more challenging, I mean if you can successfully hunt public week in and week out your pretty much on top of your waterfowl game hunting private is like shooting clays pretty much, just trigger time
Attention rickym, this is not a troll post, just a good hearted fun type of post

I have never hunted public, so forgive the dumb question. I want to take my grandson, does he have to have a public permit also, he's 14 YO?
There is time, and you must take it, to lay your hand on your dog's head as you walk past him lying on the floor or on his settle, time to talk with him, to remember with him, time to please him, time you can't buy back once he's gone" GBE

No problem, I was really looking for someone that was the best fit, I promised the owner I would find someone good, and the guy that is taking over is really a perfect fit.

.....at a certain point public just becomes more challenging, I mean if you can successfully hunt public week in and week out your pretty much on top of your waterfowl game B Guy/Garrett, shoot me a pm. I'll take you on the some of the best duck and goose hunts you've ever had. All public. All season long. No BS. I'm not a guide but I hunt public 90% of the time for a reason. 6-7 days a week. All season long. And I'd be embarrassed to admit the number of birds I kill (legally). But I put a heck of a lot of hours in scouting and cover a lot of water. For no other reason than it's challenging and a heck of a lot of fun. As it should be.

I will be blasting the crud out of gaddies off it I jokingly say that private is cheating because I have hunted public for so long and its alot more challanging or as Guy says- adventurous. Private just seems to easy. Anyone who thinks public sucks or is no good simply does not put in the time or only hunts on the weekends. There are more ducks to be killed then most people can image on public and most cases within walking distance.
