SE Louisiana Duck Season 2020 Opener Report - 11/16/20 03:48 PM
Date hunted 11/14/20:
With warm temperatures, tide slightly above normal and a slight breeze we hit the marsh for another opening day of big duck season. We had guys in three different blinds on the duck lease. I hunted with my son and one of his friends and it started rather slow, but it was steady with some shots for us. Enjoyed letting the youngsters shoot as I was the monkey in the middle hitting the duck call trying to get ducks to work. We shot a mixed bag greys, teal, one pintail, redheads and dosgris. We hunted until 9:00 and three of us shot 17. One of the other blinds shot a two man limit 12 and the other blind shot 6. We had a rookie in the group who shot his first duck, that is always nice to see that happen.
We just don’t have opening days like we used to with a lot of ducks in the sky. I know those days are over but there is always hope.
Some of my friends hunted other areas and did well while others struggled. Location, location is king.

Blue bird day with the tide a little higher than Saturday with very little wind. Usually there is a big drop off after opening day and this year was no different. We had guys in two blinds. Two of us in my blind shot 4 ducks and the other blind shot 6.![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/11/full-66591-264780-11_14_20.jpg)
