196champ Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 I know this is a little off topic. Planning a duck hunt/fishing trip next weekend anyone seeing any ducks around? Thanks for any info!
WeekendWarrior Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Plenty of ducks here, come sit on my dock and you can lasso them with the net ?
WHARFRAT Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Opening weekend I was in a small cove next to a dock and about 12 Mallards came flying in within range and landed about 70 yds from me, and within a few minutes, they all swam up next to my boat. So I take it, they were probably local ducks that hang out there all the time. I do see duckhunters coming in from their spots in the afternoon. And I've heard shots down around HaHa Tonka, so I do know there is some action. I also hear that the hunters complain about residents harassing them while they are set up, or disrupting their hunt when birds are working. So, to me, It sounds like a hassle to hunt. @lozcrappie
fishinwrench Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 The only "hassle" is when a cripple gets under a dock (and they do that alot). Dock owners get all freaked out when a hunter trys to retrieve a injured bird. They call the sheriff and say "there are two armed men poking around my dock" and the law comes flying in like a military excersize. Trust me it'll ruin your day. Mitch f and MOsmallies 2
WHARFRAT Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 I did talk to one of the agents up here at one of the duck parks and asked him what you do about pursuing cripples and they go up around someones dock or property, and he didn't really have an answer. @lozcrappie
Old plug Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Well the crappie are defiantly active. But the bite was late evening. I caught 6-7 in about a hour last evening shallow and deeper. 4 were real nice and the others were maybe keepers. I did not measure them. Was down there a bit ago and there were shallow chasers that looked pretty good but would not bite.

196champ Posted December 11, 2015 Author Posted December 11, 2015 Well that's not very encouraging, bass or crappie or both?
