Just from a courtesy stand point I would move. Saftey would also be a consideration. If you have to pass through, do so quickly. He was there first and spent more time setting up. Not something you have to do, just the right thing.

I have many years experience fishing the marsh before, during, and after duck season. I also duck hunted for many years. A reasonable and responsible fisherman will avoid duck hunters whether it is public or private waters. However, I would love to have duck hunters respect me when I am fishing. Most fishermen will idle by another fishermen but most duck hunters essentially ignore the fishermen and do not seem to be concerned if they disrupt his fishing.
