Tried pullin' a Dick Cheney on ya huh?I used to hunt quite a bit years ago. I used a canoe and would float local streams. The wife would drop me off and pick me up at my exit site, I would usually go bridge to bridge. Sometimes you would see quite a few, sometimes none. Someone else in the canoe would make me nervous. i had a 14 ft narrow Jon for social outings. It was a little steadier. Be sure you can trust someone if you take them in a boat. I had a guy about shoot me. He got overexcited and was tracking the duck without paying attention to where that track was going.
I'm glad I scrolled down to this before I replied!Tried pullin' a Dick Cheney on ya huh?
I would suggest putting in for the waterfowl hunt drawings that should be posted in the next 2-3 months as a starter. These can be good hunts if you're drawn and conditions are good. PS: If drawn, don't wear a hunter orange hat or do jumping jacks outside of your blind every hour or so. I have seen both.I'm wanting to get into waterfowl hunting but have never been. I read recently there's a Veteran's Waterfowl weekend in October. I'm half considering borrowing a canoe and getting some decoys and trying to hunt on Monroe or something. Any recommendations on how to get started?
