a duck only killed in Alabama

Aaahhhhh.....I see. Do they have them in Tennessee?
I think I saw some over at the BDDC. There was some little ducks swimming around with little pointy "pin" tails that stuck straight up. Was that them?

Question: Why do the Central Flyway and Pacific Flyways have larger bag limits on certain species of ducks and longer seasons? I would assume it’s because more ducks migrate those flyways but I am not sure that’s why I am asking

Way less man days out west compared to the east.

Way less man days out west compared to the east.

What you mean?

[deltadukman]

Less hunters per day than here in the Mississippi Flyway. They have a huge area, and limited access and less hunters. Here in the Mizzizzip...it's ballz to the wall, Canadian border, to Venice, 6 ducks a day for all 60 days. Every Tom, Dick, and Harry hunt.

I know there is a better explanation, but that sums it up.

True Dat...I do get some pleasure of knowing that most birds killed out thar aint in full plume...100+day seasons...man id be a train wreck after all that

[The Waterfowler]

In California with all the liberals they don't treat waterfowl as a religion, just a social gathering to worship Obamy and Pelosi than do some serious hunting. Leases are costly for many out there and public areas make some of the ones here look like a Sunday School picnic. I've seen a forty acre rice field with 8 2 man pits on it there. Not fun. If we had 107 days here lawyers would get richer with all the divorces as many of us would hunt them all! Bean counters, the same ones that crunch imaginary duck numbers, say less ducks are killed in the Pacific than the Ms. flyways due to hunter days and numbers.

screw the ducks, the little goose hunting in the PNW is what i'd be after.
