Went by the lease yesterday and noticed a large number of ducks and even a few specks in the fields. Ducks were mainly teal, pintail and greys with some mallards mixed in but very few. These might be some of the liberated mallards from the released birds south of here. Not sure. Glad to see the specks though!

Finished up the teal season with a couple of birds. All in all a pretty good season. Saw plenty of birds yesterday including pintails and greys. No geese yet which is somewhat unusual for this time of the year. With the start of the first split about six weeks away, we are starting to concentrate on getting blinds and decoy spreads together. Reports from my area, indicates that most hunters did good for this first season. One of my buddies killed an immature albino blue wing teal. Wish he would have taken it during the duck season, maybe it would have been in full plumage.

Our lease had a season total of 100 blue wings for the special teal season. The opening weekend was lights out, limits taken by all hunters and saw thousands of teal, but the number of birds seen and harvested dropped progressively as the season progressed.

Got a call last night from a buddy that hunts flooded rice in Mermentau Cove. Every day since opening they have limited out in the same blind, and he asked if I wanted to go hunt that blind with him. How could I decline? Work becomes secondary when you get an offer like that…. 3 hunters went and ended up with 12 birds by about 7:00 A.M. We saw plenty of birds, but I could tell they were starting to get skittish. I think about 70-80 teal have been killed out of that blind this year, so only mildly smart ones are left.
Happy hunting everyone

No problem Sat. and Sun. for my boy and I. No big bunches but everything was in the dekes. Gotta love the way those blue wingers just swoop right in.

We did well opening day. 4 hunters killed 16 birds by about 8:00 A.M. We saw a lot of ducks, probably 3-5K teal, lots of mottled ducks,and quite a few whistlers.
The actual spot we were in wasn’t great, but you can’t beat the location. There were so many teal in Gueydan you probably could have shot a few right off of La. Hwy.91.
Like you Castille, the reports that I heard from all other hunters were really good. I have a buddy in Morse (South Central) that says they limited out with 10-15 hunters. I have some buddies that did well in Lyons point (South Central) Louisiana.

Well, had good luck for the first two days of teal season. Plenty of birds and from the reports that I am getting, most people had similar results. All Blue wings, no Green. The shooting was fast.

Seeing some teal here and there. LOTS of summer mallards. Thursday’s “front” will hopefully push in a few more birds. Hope everyone has a fun and safe weekend.

I have been seeing a fair number of blue wing teal between Clarks Marina and Chosatta. Also seen a pretty decent number of teal around bisteneau/bodcau/dorcheat. If someone takes the time to find out the right spot should be wroth hunting(it seems) My hunting partner has seen quite a few teal at Atchfalaya Delta as well. Good Luck, I wont be able to hunt until the 24th of The Month

So they’ve opend the Sabine Refuge for hunting again. Last I heard it would probably be close for a few years. That was back in Jan. though.
