  • In this video I head out with just my dog Chester, on a solo duck hunt. The temperatures have dropped and I didn't have time to scout but get lucky with my decision to head to a small river and have an absolutely awesome duck hunt.

    Love hunting those small creeks after a freeze up.

    Thank you!
    It's refreshing to see a good hunter doing it right!
    No aggressive gangbangers framming away at anything that flies by.
    One shot, one duck! I wish more of the RUclips Hunting Heroes would get a clue and a grip on what's up!
    I've been hunting for almost 40 years and have seen a decline in hunter's style, ethics & methods.
    You sir, are what all new hunter's should watch. Patience, being selective and knowing your targets and limitations!
    Also, good job Chester! Not a "robo dog", but a companion who loves his job!
    Thanks again!

      @@AbandonOutdoors not to highjack ya, but where are you located?
      I transplanted myself to the PNW last year from Fla. First to NoCal where I hunted on a mountain lake in the Sierras (w/ a lot of birds to myself) and this season in coastal Washington. I've hunted out here before and that's why I returned.
      I'm a solo hunter (b/c I'm very selective with my birds and my partners). I appreciate good hunters like you and have little tolerance for knuckleheads.
      Now that the season is about to close, the enthusiasm will wane for many, but for me, it's time to start getting involved w/ planning on networking, post season scouting, learning more about the area, meeting the officials who make the regulations and getting involved w/ conservation projects, etc.
      Have you considered producing videos that address proper techniques, ethics, education, etc.?

      @@wilesdukedubose4431 I am located in SW Idaho. It would be a good idea to make such videos. I do get so sick of people acting like hunting is a competition. I’ve actually made some friends by just inviting them to hunt with me when I meet them at a public parking lot before a hunt. I lived in South Dakota for a long time and shot many ducks and geese there and now I really enjoy these unique and beautiful spots in the west. I turkey hunted Northern California this spring and really want to try waterfowling there soon!

    Yep, awesome day! Questions; What camera and lens are you using? What is that nasty sounding call you have? I like it, it's crisp, raspy and loud (the loud may be due to it's proximity to the mic).

    • @AbandonOutdoors
      @AbandonOutdoors  3 года назад +1

      Thank you! Camera I am using is a canon XA50 camcorder, just the built in lense. Call is a C&S custom calls “preacher” it is very loud and definitely my favorite single reed duck call.
