Fortunately for us teal showed up after hurricane Francine hit SE Louisiana September 11. It took some time but by the second weekend of the season they were in our area. We had some real good hunts. Vegetation is good in our area with plenty for the teal to eat and stay around.

I shot some video of one of the hunts with a couple of young guys that are in our club. We hunt in 3 or 4 man wood structure platform blinds we pull the boat behind to get out of and hunt. The guys know the drill and showed up to hunt with tennis shoes on. I might be spoiling them a bit too much when they come dressed like that. Also, in the video you will see the homemade spinners we use, you don’t need a duck body with wings to make it work. The teal don’t care and try to land on them sometimes.

Overall, a good September teal season for us.

Thanks for sharing! Congrats!
Surface drive motor?

On the boat in the video it is a 2008 36HP Pro Drive that still gets it done for what we do. Manual reverse as you can see in other videos done. Had to do some things to it on occasion to keep it going but been a really good motor. I have never gotten stuck with it is what counts.
