My favorite ducks to shoot are the ones that work the decoys and react to the calls. In other words being able to talk to the birds and get them to do what you want them to do. To me that’s the true essence of duck hunting.
Nothing wrong with that hunt! My favorite is probably a Mottled Duck (what we call a black mallard in Louisiana). They are native to the area and quite wary, so it is always a treat to get one to work.
I hunt in MINNESOTA I have run into several groups of oriental sky busters please someone talk to these men on duck hunting etiquette because they think no matter how high or how fare the ducks are they shoot
I really liked your video. Nice job filming a solo hunt. Your public land isn't like anything I am used to in CA where hunters are spaced every 200 to 300 yards and very rarely does a bird gets a chance to work the decoys.
I noticed shooting 3 inch BB through my 12ga the pattern wasn't very dense so the clean kills dropped. BB in a 3 1/2 seem to pattern much better. Duces seem to pattern the best for me. I like Bull Pintails, and Cans, but don't hate Mallys! OK love Mallys too...and Blue Bills....can't forget Red Heads. Oh, and Teal, did I miss any...OOPS Widg, love me some Widg too. Ok, I love them all! Don't judge! LOL
Goes to show you that it is a good idea to pattern your load. My gun loves BB, 2s don't pattern well at all (they put more pellet in the circle but clumped and left holes, BBs were more even . Used to swap shells when honkers were round. Now I just shoot 3' BB at everything.
I am interested in getting into hunting but was wondering how do you know where to hunt that’s public land or do you ask people if you can get on their private property to hunt?
Okay, question. As a Solo Hunter I really do like videos like this Any advice for beginning into Duck and Goose hunting as a solo hunter? I have a few duck floater decoys but I never seem to have luck bringing them close it happens but never like your guys videos, what am I doing wrong?
Kept hearing you talk up the hypersonics so I got a box. Screw you buddy Lol I only fired two before I retired the rest of the box. You must have shoulders of steel.
Don't let anyone knock the swat- We all have to take birds on the wing; We've seen you do it plenty. You've got nothing to prove. A swat is the most lethal and likely to recover, making it the most ethical shot to take.
A mallard that has landed in your decoys is easier to shoot that a mallard landing in your decoys- 100%. A mallard landing is moving. It could flare the moment you pull up. The entire argument against swatting is that it's not as hard or sporting- that it gives the bird less of a chance. If you're missing swats on birds you need to check your pattern.

Sheeeshhh they sound like a blast when you get em in!
@@MinnDakOutdoors They work like mallards typically, but way more cautious and have to use real light finesse calling typically.

Favorite duck definitely woodies
You have improved in so many ways since I viewed one of your earlier videos. Continue to grow and lead young man.

Have you had any problems with the franchi?
No I have not
Mallards are always great but pintails would have to be my favorite
Oh yesssirrr
Those BB’s don’t have a dense enough pattern, You still did good though!!
I really liked your video. Nice job filming a solo hunt. Your public land isn't like anything I am used to in CA where hunters are spaced every 200 to 300 yards and very rarely does a bird gets a chance to work the decoys.
Danngggg rippp maybe you should make a trip out here! Good luck on the rest of your season!
favorite duck has to be wood duck or pintail
Oh heck yeah
Wood ducks in south la swamps is a pretty fun hunt
Oh heck yeah I bet
Dude has his front sight zip tied down 😂
Hahaha if I don’t then it falls off or swings Off to the side!
Beautiful mallards drakes
The pintail would have been cool.
It would’ve :(
What duck call is that
I noticed shooting 3 inch BB through my 12ga the pattern wasn't very dense so the clean kills dropped. BB in a 3 1/2 seem to pattern much better. Duces seem to pattern the best for me. I like Bull Pintails, and Cans, but don't hate Mallys! OK love Mallys too...and Blue Bills....can't forget Red Heads. Oh, and Teal, did I miss any...OOPS Widg, love me some Widg too.

Who doesn’t love all the ducks hahah!
Goes to show you that it is a good idea to pattern your load. My gun loves BB, 2s don't pattern well at all (they put more pellet in the circle but clumped and left holes, BBs were more even . Used to swap shells when honkers were round. Now I just shoot 3' BB at everything.
Well.dunn there sam the man.
Thanks!
Your code for the dux website isn’t workin I see. The shirt and had to cop one thanks for the info!
Rip we will try to fix that thanks for letting us know
That's awesome I never get to many limits in here in we are only allowed 2 mallards which sucks because it's mostly what we have
I am interested in getting into hunting but was wondering how do you know where to hunt that’s public land or do you ask people if you can get on their private property to hunt?
Never mind just watched your guys other video with John and he explained it all haha
Love the videos do you have any tips to shoot better your a very good shot
Nice man. Hit the whistle more though! And let those pin tail work. They will circle you multiple times!
Nice hunt bro
Pintail
Ayyee
The birds we had opening day in the central valleys of California were a lot of teal green wing teal. Mendota
Other than a greenhead would prolly be a pintail or woody lots of those in my area
Oh heck ya!
Nice shooting
What waders do u use my guy?
Tidewe
Thx guy
You are a good shot
I’ve only shot one duck so far, hopefully they will come down to central Texas soon
Heck yeah!
Spoonies all day they just dive in to the decoys
Please, taken. Tooken isn't a word.
Really good shooting. Those shells are made near where I duck hunt.
I think the same thing every video 😂
Definitely drake woodys
what duck wistles are you using
You use 3.5 chill in shells ?
You Done did Good
My favorite duck is Drake pintail and widgeon
I would have to say my favorite other than mallards are probably wood ducks
Oh hell yeah!
Have y'all ever Hunted over towards Idaho?
Teal are the funnest birds to shoot
Awesome
Big widg guy
Wood duck
Thanks for hearting it I’m a big fan
What camera do you use in low light if you don't mind me asking. Sick video
Greenwing
They do be pretty
How many decoys ?
wood ducks are my favorite cuz im in florida and that's mostly all there is here
You got a boat too go out there?
Okay, question. As a Solo Hunter I really do like videos like this Any advice for beginning into Duck and Goose hunting as a solo hunter? I have a few duck floater decoys but I never seem to have luck bringing them close it happens but never like your guys videos, what am I doing wrong?
I would guess maybe try hiding better! If it’s not your hide then idk!
@@MinnDakOutdoors yeah thank you, Idk its a tough thing not knowing much about Duck hunting and having no one to go with!
Kept hearing you talk up the hypersonics so I got a box. Screw you buddy Lol I only fired two before I retired the rest of the box. You must have shoulders of steel.
Sorry man:(
Slough hunter
Oh god yeah! You aren’t?
Thanks Sam
Man you have had too much success to be blowing a double Reed. Get yourself an Arkansas style single reed and you will burn em up even more!👍
I’ve been looking into it!
That reload clap was sexy🤤
:)
Don't let anyone knock the swat- We all have to take birds on the wing; We've seen you do it plenty. You've got nothing to prove. A swat is the most lethal and likely to recover, making it the most ethical shot to take.
Yessirrr not ashamed
Swat is harder shot than a mallard landing in your decoys 🤷🏻 change my mind
A mallard that has landed in your decoys is easier to shoot that a mallard landing in your decoys- 100%.
A mallard landing is moving. It could flare the moment you pull up.
