Just wanted to introduce myself before I start chiming in on any discussions here. I was an avid duck hunter in California, but a change of state and babies arriving led to a long break from hunting. I got out last season a few times and remembered all of the reasons I love it. I've been scouting hard and I'll be out as much as I can get away with this year, hunting mostly public land. I've enjoyed reading the discussions here, and it looks like you've got a good, active bunch. Looking forward to hearing of everyone's successes this season....-Keith

Welcome. Sit back and enjoy it.

Glad you're joining us. Good luck this season, and remember, its rare to kill a cinnamon teal in Texas, unlike California. There are some other differences between Cali and Texas too, but ill leave it at that.

My first bit of advice to you is...don't tell people you are from California.

I expected some grief over admitting my California roots, but I've been here five years now and as a city kid with redneck tendencies I definitely fall into the "I got here as fast as I could" category. Texas is home.
We certainly were knee deep in Cinnamons out there but I had good luck with the BWT during early teal here, and I'm looking forward to pulling the trigger on a redhead or canvasback for the first time ever this season...

Welcome. I'm originally from Chicago but like you I made my way here a quickly as possible.
the thing about baiting is, even a rookie hunter could have a 170 bird season if they bait holes
