I think it is bad manners to visit an area where one heard shooting while other hunters are there. That is ridiculous. Its part of the game, bring your 3 barney friends to a duck hole and shoot 200 rounds you are gonna give away your spot. When I'm on a lake, I know all spots, I know where all the gun fire is coming from. Keep your shots to a minimum or I will be there. Yep, that's why almost all my public land hunts are solo, go in get out with minimum shooting and you dont have to worry about the boom scooters.

To all you new Duck Hunters out there,welcome to a great sport. I have been Duck hunting for 46 years and have seen just about everything. I guided in my younger days and still do some guide work on a large private club. My suggestion would be to spend the money and hire a guide for one of your first trips. $250 to $500 sounds expensive but to spend a day with someone with experience will be well worth it. A good guide will teach you many things,how not to call, how to get a good hide, what shells to shoot, distances to shoot, and many other important things learned over the years. Then you will better understand when and where to scout on public lands. Most local guides even know a few places they might share with you. Good luck this season and always remember, Safety First!
