re: Duck Hunting Lease

You aren't going to want to hear this, but anyone with an open blind probably had people leave last year because of no birds. If they had birds and someone left a good blind for whatever reason, it would go to friends or family. You stand a very, very good chance of overpaying for a blind with very few birds...

Meh..I know of a few that come free from time to time around the Welsh/ROanoke areas....many times someone finds a "better" or "Bigger" area to lease since they are there regularly and strike up relationships with all of the farmers/hunters around...so most of the time, an blind being abandoned is for an upgrade reason and they are taken before it becomes public knowledge thru connections..

And also, many times farmers decide to quit missing out on all the free money from leasing and put their land out there.

I suggest going out there and spend a day or 2 talking to farmers/workers/locals and many times they will point you in the right direction...it's like a sales prospecting process....face to face works best...unless you look like an idiot
