Seems like the public I have hunted once I can get them to looking I gotta stop calling but the private stuff they respond a lot better to the calls??? Not sure why, but I've noticed the same thing. Well, except for spoonies and teal... they love calling anytime anywhere. That is true...but at the same time I have only shot one spoonie but it came in to a call. Teal are awesome to eat and awesome to decoy. The more I hunt the more I love those little birds  Hopedale...I don't know but it is as if they know? Might be the size of the water. I haven't hunted any public places that were small everything was backwaters of bigger lakes and the private places have all been either small tanks or flooded stuff??? I like how Hopedale gets blamed for all th egoofy questions

Yeah Judd that was me. Was having some issues with sticking that morning. I need to make the move to a single or learn to blow better. I actually hadn't had that much of a problem with sticking till Sunday. Maybe those cheap calls have run their coarse.

There wasn't anything wrong with your calling, matter of fact it was pretty dang good. I knew what was happening and thought it was funny but only because you bleep, bleep, bleeped the couple times it happened I talked to the guy I bought the Original from and he told me some changes to make to the reed and it sounds a lot better in my opinion. But both of them stuck on me that morning...single and double. I think it has to do with them getting wet from blowing them and then being colder.

I heard a trick is to put deodorant on the reeds but it didn't help me Sunday. It had before so maybe it's because I was laying on my back. I did throw a few F-bombs in the air and the ducks didn't respond to that either, lol. I might spring for a Daisy Cutter at some point.
