Yep everyone better stay home. It is going to be 1 or 2 degrees above average in the north half of the US this winter. No ducks or geese will be migrating except a few blue wings and spoonies.
I'm with GK because I like salty old dudes.

I plan a hunt or two with guides who have single spots open and can put with a group that doesn't mind. It's a bi**h when you're the only duck hunter you know. So with all of you saying home my chances improve. Thanks all of you.

I don't think some of you understand migration. It might hurt the mallard numbers but all the other species go where they go just because they do what they do when it's time to do it.

Pretty simple. You can sit at your spot and hope the weather is just perfect (1% chance in TX) or you can go to where the ducks are. Expensive? Time consuming? Exhausting? Sure but it's the price of consistent success.

It's duck hunting...the only thing consistent is change. Adapt.
