Late Season DIVER DUCK HUNTING On Big Water!

Diver duck hunting on big water is something that I've been trying to learn how to do for the last couple seasons. Last December in Virginia we got the perfect opportunity to cut our teeth on some during a huge cold snap that locked up most of our inland water and pushed a lot of ringnecks, bluebills, and redheads into our area. On this hunt we setup a big spread in a cove that had been holding birds for a couple days, however with no wind during the morning it proved to be pretty difficult to pull birds off the big water. Hope you enjoy!

[@HokeOutdoors]

Never heard much about the duck hunting in that area. What kind of birds do y'all get into down there?

[@Carbajal492]

Great work! I always enjoy your group hunt videos. Just a nice banter back and forth and everyone seems to be on the same page/program. Not one guy just spearheading and shooting first or flock shooting.

[@HokeOutdoors]

Thanks brother! Honestly I was a little disappointed in my shot calling on this hunt when watching it back. Didn't feel like I gave Nick, the new guy, enough heads up that we were about to shoot into those groups of divers. Felt pretty bad about squeezing off on that wigeon as quickly as I did too

very dramatic scene with Thomas and the undercut bank ringnecks

[@Tinystrom]

I hate how when you get so close to a diver you don’t want to shoot it and ruin it only for it to wind up adding another 10 minutes to your wild duck chase, glad you got him and still had an intact bird 😂

[@D_Boone]

Right? Especially with a bank like that. i've had a diver get up under a bank like that and just disappear.

[@HokeOutdoors]

No kidding! They are some slick buggers when they know you're after them

[@gottaflylee5521]

Thomas, you ever thought about making a jurk rig for those still morning, they work!

[@HokeOutdoors]

Yeah I actually had one out on this hunt, just couldn’t really get it in the right spot because of how deep the cove was

[@D_Boone]

I gotta be the guy that asks what that first shot was? 🤣 Joking aside, great video as usual.

[@HokeOutdoors]

Thanks brother! Some pretty suspect shooting in this one for sure, think the cold weather got the best of us 🤣

[@turkeyhunter7617]
