Came from La and hunted there this year. There was no where I couldn’t get in my surface drive. Not bragging at all, but for a place where you can literally only get 1-2 miles at the furthest from any boat launch,
A surface drive shouldn’t be allowed.
Convenient ? Yes. Necessary? Absolutely not.
Our last Saturday’s take consisted of all teal… and now that ya mention it, our hen to drake ratio was wayyyy heavy towards the drake side. Makes for a pretty strap but is concerning I suppose
I’m guessing it needs it be dry during late late spring or early summer for things plants to take off in shallow water and get above water surface ? I wish I could be replanting something now
This is the lowest water I’ve seen in our marsh since 2011… a lot has changed but what I learned is our water we have left is basically trapped and only evaporation can dry us up even more. I welcome it. We need many places to re vegetate and put off more duck food
Guess how many employees Sabine NWR with 125,000 acres has ?
Currently only 1. When he started there was 22 on staff. Apparently USFWS is jacked up too. Granted having a full staff may not bring/hold more ducks, but still sucks we can’t improve our own habitat. I’m sure weather plays a big...
I listened to that episode today. After hearing Doug talk about his opinion on hunting late season, I can’t help but think of all the people him and everyone associated with Grosse savanne and surely someone has some pull that could get it in front of the right people. I just don’t get why that...
Our marsh is looking better than it has been in Atleast 3 years or so. Duck weed out the wazooo. Wigeon grass is great in places. With next week looking dry too, it’ll be setting up nice
Getting rid of powered boats needs to happen, especially in that small of an area. And I agree with you on all your statements about being too close. We know all about it from the public places we hunt in La.
Large lack of education when it comes to waterfowling. Hard to blame it on younger...
75 pages… I’d say someone’s upset.
As a NR myself, I hate to see that they’ve let hunting go past 12-2pm or whatever time it maybe in yalls areas. That’s awful in my opinion. Too add to this, just from a small time studying aerial Imagery and the CB pdf, ya have it easy with all the boat...
