Well never mind, never seen it. My old stomping grounds were Comanche/Eastland county.
Good luck!

Cant wait for the 2 F kansas weather this week.

I added the new boundaries and its close to 22 acres now and was 29 two months ago. This place usually gives you a very good indication when the ducks are in the Denton area. Untill yesterday there was zero. Today it was loaded. Should be an excellent February.

I pinned those coordinates earlier. The map is current. I work a mile from it, and drive by it EVERYDAY! Not being a hater, just trying to help you reel in that eye on acredge.
Hopefully u can tell the difference in ducks and decoys. Homeboy that's been hunting it has left his spread floating for quite some time. He parks next to the lean-to up by the gate. We honk at him when we go on lunch break.

I would hope you have gathered them since season is over. I'm not being a hater, but I own 14 acres of dry land, and know that pond I drive by every day, couldn't cover my place.
Looks to be a great every 3 week hole. Local birds frequent it, hence the 60 geese there every September! Once shot into, you're waiting on a front

Also, 700-900 ducks is CRAZY!! Since the best flights of ducks is still to come, I will take a photo everyday and refresh this thread. If those are your decoys, and/or your white pickup parked next to the lean-to. I will pull into the gate and BS for a while
