Opening weekend we had a fair number of birds, Greys, Widgeon,Red heads and a few cans, The following week was alittle slower with mostly spoonies and teal, however we went on wednsday and smoked the bluebils but on Friday didnt even see one. Most of the ducks we had moved out, but we havent seen anything like what we had last year at this time. Hopefully the ducks we had at the opener was just a teaser and the real push is on the way. Tried Pirates Cove this morning and never fired a shot. Seen a total of about 50 birds. Good luck

Yall holler if you see any flight ducks. Waiting for that first real push. For the most part, those of us in north La. know that we will only have a few great days each year as we catch ’em on a fly-by to the south. If you miss those days your season will be average at best.

The fog got us again! 4 guns-11 ducks-4 pintail, 3 mallards, 2 teal, 2 greys. The encouraging thing was the number of flight birds high heading south was surprising. 30 bunches of ducks with 12 to 25 per bunch-looked like new birds heading to the marsh. We also had quite a few bunches of geese both specks and buzzards heading south. South of I-10 should be good on Wednesday!!

According to cajunsorc, it looks like Pine Island is the place to be right now. WOW! The ducks were not in Fletchers Lake, Clayton , LA this past weekend. Like I said before, last year at this time we were covered up with greys and ringnecks. I still believe we have not had a “push” of ducks yet from up north.

It was a very frustrating opening weekend for me. There are absolutely no ducks, except woodies, in this part of Louisiana. Opening day, 11/17, we shot our limit of woodies and one greenhead mallard. Last year at this time we were covered up with greys and ringnecks. Obviously, we have not had the push of ducks from up north yet. Pray for hard freezes up north NOW!!!!! on 11/18 and 11/19 only woodies were in the area. No sign of big ducks yet. I heard that all the ducks that have arrived in LA are in the south west portion of the state. Did anyone else have any luck opening day in the east zone?

We are seeing around 20 to 30 mallards a hunt but that number should increase with the next front. We have about 1500 acres of crawfish ponds flooded around us and it is helping with our duck numbers. My buddies hunted there today and said the gwt ate em up. 2 guns had 12 with all teal except for 1 greenhead and 1 pintail. Let me know and maybe we can get together and shoot a few.

You must hunt one heck of a spot Cajunsorc, you guys are getting a lot of mallards. I have only shot one big old greenhead to this day.
Are you seeing quite a few mallards, or are you killing pretty much everything you see?

Got on them again this past weekend.
Saturday 2 hunters:
We were able to let the spoonies and teal fly away today, and just focus on the flying feasts!
11 Greys and 1 big cottontop.
I love watching those grey ducks work!
