Here is my question. If you have a sweet tater plot that you planted in your duck hole and harvested MOST of the taders, you know you cant get all of them there will be some left on the ground, disk it under and then in the winter as the water rises over it you hunt it. Wouldn't that be hunting over a flooded agricultural field? Same as flooded corn or rice field or soybeans, right?

I think I am going to see if I can lease me a field in Vardamen.


that'll be a waste of time...we dont drive 2 or 3 hours southwest to hunt for no reason...only duck you'll see here is a tame one...u'd also have to fight the hogs off your hole they'd eat all your bait
