I just put my new blind on my boat and plan on hunting big branch. Tell me what you think guys think of it. It is first time hunting out of an aluminum haul. Also has anyone seen any birds at all on the lake?
Anyone have any suggestions as to where to go for Teal season opening weekend? I cant seem to find any in my usual spots. I thought Lake Maurepas was gonna be better but I havent found em yet. Lake Verret, havent had a chance too..anyone seen teal in either these lakes or anywhere else please let me know! I need a hunt openin day!
We drove down to the lease in Grand Chenier and put out the decoys yesterday afternoon after church. We saw a few teal and mottled ducks but nothing to get really excited about. I hope ya'll stir them up Saturday and send some our way.
Went to set Aligator lines this morning and was impressed by the number of teal in the area. Large flocks and small bunches all around. Should be another great teal season this year. Going to run the aligator lines tomorrow morning, will let you know how it looks.
I thought this would have been talked about already but I couldn't find it. With shotgun shells being so expensive now a days, about 10$ a box atleast. A few years ago I came across steel target loads made by Winchester that are 5$ a box. I was wondering if any other people use them? Funds are limited especially being a kid so during teal season I use them and find that they work out great. I.... Read More
Me and my dad are looking at taking a trip anywhere from canada to mexico for a duck hunt. We are looking for a do-it-yourself type deal. Has anybody had any experiences on public land duck hunts in other areas besides lousiana?
Reports/sightings are starting to increase as predicted with full moon. Migration map has increased reports and getting word of birds showing up in North and SW LA. Less humidity and sun angle making it seem a little more like hunting season. Let's hear some duck sighting reports.
Does anyone know where I can get a remington 870 supermag barrel. I have a 26 inch barrel on it now and would like to get a 30 inch slick barrel (no rib). Any info would be great.
My property behind the house flooded with all of the rain this week. I went ride to the back this mourn and saw several flocks of bwt. Hopefully i still have some water next weekend. We still don't have any in bayou black, so i will be hunting behind the house hopefully!
They are here! We are now holding several thousand Teal throughout our four farms in southwest Louisiana. Our properties are approximately 30 miles east and south of Lake Charles.
We will be hunting Teal on thousands of Acres of flooded rice in Southwest Louisiana. We consistently shoot limits of Teal through-out the 16 day season. These are easy hunts with no work or walking required of our.... Read More
I bought a new pair of waders last year and they fit well except for they are too long in the legs. Is there any way to take out a couple inches? I can use them like they are but it would be much easier to get around if they fit better.
Time for me to get off the hip and purchase a decent duck call. I'm looking for a all around double reed call that I can get on loud enough in the open marshes and also back off when I'm in the timber. SUGGESTIONS fellas?!

I took this straight from the LDWF pamphlet.
No unauthorized entry or unauthorized
hunting in restricted areas,
refuges or limited access areas, unless
otherwise specified. It doesn't say that you can hunt there does it .
STILL THERE ARE NO RULES POSTED FOR THESE SCREWED UP LAAS... CAN YOU USE YOUR TROLLING MOTOR TO ACCESS THESE AREAS AS LONG AS YOUR BIG MOTOR IS OUT OF THE WATER ??? OR IS THE RUMOR TRUE THAT YOUR NOT ALOUD TO HAVE A GAS MOTOR OR A TROLLING MOTOR ON THE BOAT YOUR USING AT ALL ... ITS JUST LIKE LDWF TO IMPOSE SOMETHING AND NOT LET US KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT TILL THEY ARE WRIGHTING YOU A.... Read More

There seems to be a new type of shell or an improved version of an old shell in every magazine I see or store I go to. Just wondering what kind of shell everyone likes to shoot.
I feel bad for cancelling on a good teal hunt in Gueydan with a good friend and guide due to a family deal on opening weekend. so he probably has 2 spots open and he's reasonable. www.swlahunting.com

I've got an old 870 wingmaster that I got at a pawn shop several years back. Shoots great but it's beat to hell, All the bluing is gone (got a nice brown patina on it though), and the stocks look like it got caught by go devil prop. Anyway, I'm looking to get it stripped down and re-blued and have a new old stock put on it. I found this place Lacombe Gunsmith & Machine that will do it.... Read More
I purchased a go-devil motor with a homemade frame from a fella last year and I am in NEED of new BUSHINGS! Any body have any advise where I can purchase watersealed bushings in the Baton Rouge area? Thanks; need bushings ASAP, Sept 11th creaping fast!
Was at the lease in bayou black all weekend and didn't spot any teal. saw a couple hundred wood ducks and a few summer mallards. Lease look pretty good, the salvania is somewhat under control. Hopefully we can get some birds in by the 11th! Anyone out there spot any teal yet?
Looking to upgrade from my 835 to a decent semi-auto shotgun. Anyone have any recomendations or one for sale? I have a ruger 10/22 and a martin compound bow that i could trade for it. Any help is appreciated.
I posted photos earlier today of the great flood. After just paceing back and forth most of the day I decided to make the best of it. My dog Abby hasent been worked in a while so I got her out and worked her. I think that she is ready for teal season. No lack of water now, no excuses.. I also am working on the editing of my videos on the computer, I want to start filming and editing my own work.... Read More
Breast out the coots an make sausage with them. Add 60% pork with them an some greenonions with a little garlic . Talk about Good. When the duck are not flying go shot a coot. Great for the kids too shoot an a little bigger than a black bird .You will get more bang for the buck with high price of steel shot.
I've never paid any attention to the Gallinules and Rails season mainly because I didn't really know what they were. I found out the Gallinules are nothing more than the coots I see all over. I see alot of mudhens (Rails) too. Are these birds good to eat? None of the folks I hunt with kill them or eat them. Are the limits on them in conjunction with your daily teal/duck limit? I could easily.... Read More
Does anyone have any contact info for any of the clubs on Cocodrie Lake in Rapides/Evangeline Parish? Hunted there a lot as a kid, been wanting to get back out there.
Has anyone had any experiences with Wildwings Kennels on the Westbank? Someone recommended him to my girlfriend for our young pup and I would like to get some feedback whether it be positive or negative. She talked with him today and he seemed to be a pretty straight up guy. His price is a little higher than most, but if it's worth it I really don't mind paying.
well I bought this 23hp ducks unlimited edition just befor Hurrcain Katrina and I ran it maybe twice befor it dissapeared a couple days after the storm, well police report was filed and I put in a call to go devil and listed the motor as stolen simply because they ask you for your serial number to check the motor when you need a part for it, being its the only place you can buy parts, so 2 weeks....

Me and a few of my buddies are going to try to hunt the Biloxi WMA for the first time this year, and we had a few questions. Can a regular outboard motor get through the marsh without problems, or do you need a mud-boat/go-devil? Can’t find any depths on it either, if anyone knows …Is the marsh walkable, b/c I know where I usually hunt near Pecan Island isn’t (we use pirogues after we park the.... Read More
just came back from bein out there for the first time. after lookin at it on google earth i thought it would be a really nicve place for teal season. after goin out there, i was quite dissapointed. i expected to be able to drive the levees and those ponds would be ideal. i hope they do work on it before all the teal get here. lacassine may be a good lake, but i dont wanna drive that far for 4....

Anyone see any teal yet? I saw two nice flocks in PAC while fishing the hercules rodeo last weekend. Both flocks had between 7-15 teal, they really got my blood pumping!
Needs some opinions on Training/shocking collar for my lab pup. He just made 6mo old and I believe it's that time coming around the corner for a collar to start getting the hang of the finishing touches. I've heard about SportDog, TriTronics and Dog Tra; but all you waterfowlers with experience in training and hunting with Labs, which is the best? Thanks. Can't wait for the 11-12th next month!!
Sorry Greenhead,it is legal to bring a motarized boat in....
The boat looks great man just hope you know that you can....
