Congrats on being part of the problem. Perfect example of the "gotta pull the trigger" mentality, and unfortunately lots of people think this way. Especially those that hunt public land

I'm hoping to get into duck hunting more in the following years, but man, reading this thread makes me want to part of it. So much negativity. Is it really that bad out there?

I'm used to deer hunting public land and I'm used to other hunters, but it's never really been an issue for me. Is it really that much worse duck hunting? I could never imagine pulling up on someone and deciding to set up shop right next to them. I think I read on another site what when asked to leave, trespassers threw beer cans in the water and hauled arse.

If it's so bad out there, why does everyone do it.

(Never watched an episode of Duck Dynasty, don't care about the social media or bragging... I'm just getting burnt out on deer hunting and want to give something else a try.)

Nothing pisses me off more than the sports I hunt with say, we shoulda of took those after the ducks are exiting my area without a shot. I tell em we might of killed one or two. And those would probably been crippled, so my dog can't get em, and now I have to go chase em. I tell em if you can't see the colors, you shouldn't shoot em. Even on cloudy days where its hard to distinguish, I don't shoot unless I think it's damn sure a kill shot. I you get 3-4 groups of 4 or more in right. Your gonna kill, with 3 hunters in the blind, 3/4 ducks per group. If you do this, you only need 6 bunches or less, and you all bust out.
