Louisiana Duck Hunting Report Archive

Posted By: cajunsorc Guest Pine Island area 10-19-2007 07:10 Cloudy, High Winds – Over 70 Degrees 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! Posted By: Castille-Hebert Guest SW Louisiana 10-01-2007 05:50 Sunny & Clear, Winds Calm – 60-65 Degrees 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… Continue reading

Posted By: Duck enticer Guest Here and there around SW to SCentral LA… 09-10-2007 09:09 Sunny & Clear, Winds Calm – Over 70 Degrees Went to a few different places this past weekend. Ventured South of Crowley and found about 70-100 Mottled ducks and about 50 Blue wings holed up in a little pond right next to the one we will be hunting….We will probably get a little action there this weekend if we decide to go. Went and Scouted Sabine Refuge. It is completely different than before Rita. New Marsh everywhere. Didn’t see hardly any ducks though….Probably won’t be hunting there this next weekend.

Posted By: cajunlab Guest Atchafalaya Spillway 12-23-2006 01:20 Mostly Cloudy, No Precipitation – 60-65 Degrees Found a hole with hundreds of wood ducks. From 4:15 pm to sunset we were covered up with wood ducks. There were so many that it confused me and my 2 hunting partners as to which one to shoot at. Needless to say we got our limit of wood ducks. It was fast and furious action for fun quick shooting. Agreat hunt to practice and hone my shoting skills. They fly like jet fueled rockets if they do not decoy. We also bagged some redheads and green wing teal earlier that morning. The mallards were few and far between. We got a few stragglers to work, but would not decoy. I am still waiting for the BIG push of mallards in the spillway. cajunlabman [Edited By cajunlab on 2006-12-23 01:31] Posted By: cajunsorc Guest SW… Continue reading

Posted By: boatrower Web Member Central KY 01-03-2013 16:22 Sunny & Clear, Winds Calm – 30-34 Degrees – Ice Is anyone hunting KY? There is a lull in reports. We are shooting farm ponds that are not frozen and picking up mallards. There are bunches of geese but I believe they are locals that hang out on the horse farms. Freezing conditions don’t bode well. The dog stays home and the decoys look stupid sitting on their keels on the ice. Somebody please report on what is happening elsewhere in the state. Posted By: boatrower Web Member Southeast Missouri 12-09-2012 16:54 – – 50-60 Degrees We hunted Southeast Missouri on Thursday and Friday. There has not been a push of fresh birds since early November and the birds we worked were mostly on to us. We shot 4 mallards and 2 shovellers on Thurs and 3 mallards, one shoveller and… Continue reading

Posted By: bridgeman Web Member Ohio River at Manchester, Ohio 01-24-2012 19:29 Cloudy, Winds Calm – 30-34 Degrees – Open Water Duck Hunt 1-22-12 Jim and I decided that Sunday would be better because they were predicting freezing rain Friday nite. We did get freezing rain and we had about .25” of solid ice on everything, the ramps would have been impossible. I met Jim at his farm at 7:00 am and his son followed us to the General Store in Augusta Ky. I was planning to hunt there (Augusta) because the local duck hunters always salt the ramp. When we got to Augusta we saw that they had almost no freezing rain. Randy said he was at Maysville Saturday (Cattle auction) and there was no ice. After breakfast we decided to go to Kinniconnick mile 368 Ohio River, but then we changed our minds and went to Manchester mile… Continue reading

Posted By: bridgeman Web Member Ohio River around Manchester Ohio 01-17-2011 21:03 Cloudy, Winds Calm – 10-20 Degrees – Open Water Duck Hunt 1-16-11 The wind was supposed to be out of the North West 5-10 MPH Saturday. With a 28’ river this is horrible. I got my Ohio River navigation charts out and saw that the river below Patroit, Indiana (mile 520) flows northwest so I planned on going there. I called Jim Saturday nite and he said no, lets go upstream from Cincinnati, not downstream. Our last trip downstream was not the best. I said OK we can go below Manchester mile 397 where the river flows south. I meet Jim at his farm at 7:30 and we ran up to Augusta with Jim’s son Randy who followed us in his truck so we all could have breakfast at the General Store. Good breakfast , pancakes eggs, bacon… Continue reading

Posted By: bridgeman Web Member Ohio River above Augusta 12-09-2010 20:43 Sunny & Clear, Winds Calm – 25-30 Degrees – Open Water Duck Hunt 12-9-10 I left work at 11:30 to go float the Ohio River. What was interesting was when I crossed the Big Mac bridge that morning there was skim ice on the Ohio. I decided then that I would work .5 day and then hit the Ohio. I got the skiff and drove to Augusta. I was at ramp by 1:30. River is at 29 , it was a low of 9 last nite and most important, no wind. I was the only truck at the Augusta ramp. I got ready and realized I left my coveralls at home. I had left them laying down stairs, and forgot to go back and get them. This was a first. I toyed with the idea of calling Debi and… Continue reading
