Surprisingly we have a large amount of birds for early season, definitely diminishing with this warm spell though, tons early week to only killing 4 this morning

3 generations Killed 11 in Hamilton County Sunday on stock pond. But I agree there’s not very many. Just a few isolated pockets. Water is definitely limited.

Date Hunted 11/16/2019: No ducks in SE Louisiana either. Very few ducks in the sky again. We have had cold weather and we have the food, no ducks. We had two chances today at ducks. Eight teal came in and we shot five. About 10 Dosgris passed over the back of and we did not have a good shot so we were hoping they would come back but didn't. That is it. Highlight of the day was the 150 pouledeau pack that slowly came to us behind the blind. The were bunched up tight and we put nine shots into them. Ground rake. Picked up a bunch and shot some more to get the pouledeau limit of 45. Get the crock pot ready for the stews.

Skin them and gut them to keep the whole body. Put them in a crock pot slow cook for 6 hours with carrots, potatoes and regular spices and your regular ingredients for a good stew over rice. You won't be disappointed.
