Opening communication for the Guadalupe Delta in Port Lavaca. Hunted Hynes Bay and Guadalupe River Unit last weekend and it seemed slow for the coast. Is everyone experiencing this on the coast? Are the birds just not here? Is Mission Lake worth the hype?
Shot 7 birds on the weekend. Hynes Bay was real slow, was only 2 groups on GRU when we were there. Gaddies, Spoonies, Teal, Pintail. What is your favorite spot?
BUNCH of snipe, shot a few of them and saw a lot more. Tried them in a jalapeno popper and was really surprised with how good they were. Soaked em in a salt brine and reminded me a lot of dove meat.

Chief - Why don't you just drop coordinates of exactly where you were hunting??? Even though an idiot with the internet can find places to hunt, its frowned upon to list them on the interwebs along with a scouting report. You would have gotten better responses if you would have posted something like - I've been hunting the coast near Port A and its been slow. Anyone else seeing the same? Someone would probably reply with a very general report and then you could have PM'ed them and they would probably get a little more detailed about the general area and what they are seeing. It would be private and you might get some info out of it. The way you did it, you basically gave the internet scouting team your area and a lot of other folks spot.

I bit my tongue and taped my fingers together so I wouldn't get a vacation from here.

I shot 7 birds in 2 hunts? If internet hunters want to flock the 4,000 acres of these 2 units for 7 birds then get after it! Obviously, I am new to the forum and new to hunting this area so your help is appreciated but why don't you pm this message or add something constructive instead of being an donkey about it.

Hit the pause button Chief and read the other responses or lack thereof. I gave you a way to do it, but you still jacked it up. Carry on and good luck with the rest of your season.

It’s pretty slow every where right now, but when it gets good, sounds like Guadalupe Delta WMA is the place to be! I think that’s Smokey Bear’s secret spot!!

You think they will figure out it’s basically Matay bay

Much like the democrats. I claim one thing and do another. If I claim I am smashing birds on Ray Bob, while in reality I want you off the real x lake ray hubbard or Lake Kiowa.

It's been pretty slow on the coast. Obviously these public WMAs have decent spots but you either have to be lucky in the lottery draw or get to a spot at least a day in advance.
