Keep The Water Muddy When Hunting A Water Feeding AreaIf you'll notice, anytime you have the opportunity to hunt an area where ducks are or have been actively feeding, the water will take on a "chocolate milk" appearance. While hunting water feeding areas for ducks it is very important to make sure your water is muddy. It is important for you to duplicate this situation to give your "set-up" a natural look. When hunting in shallow water situations, keep the water muddy by periodically walking throughout the spread and kicking up the bottom mud as much as possible. This motion will give the water a "chocolate milk" appearance. By spending a few minutes "stirring" the water up, you'll give a more realistic appearance which will then help you put more ducks on your straps. |
 Testimonials "Thank you! This was my first duck season and thnks to your online audio lessons I was able to call Mallards to my dekes and knock them out of the sky! Much appreciated!" "I have been waterfowl hunting since I was 13. It's a sickness, which i'm not trying very hard to cure. I found your site just a month, or so, ago, and am enjoying it very much. I hope you keep up the great articles and videos, and update the site as often as possible. I've read, and re-read every page on here, and like I said, I'm loving what you have here!" "Have to first say that I am amazed by your website. Lots of REAL and PRACTICAL stuff. I watched the videos on painting the drake mallard and it definitely was worth joining!" "The info you guys have built up on here is priceless. I got hooked on ducks and geese two years ago and don't know a whole lot about hunting techniques or strategies. This year I have had limited hunting outings as I'm in the military and been deployed allot, but using some of your suggestions, I have already seen improvements to my kill #'s." |
