I went on one dove hunt at a WMA. I had no luck, didn't see a dove, and I had 5 decoys. There were vultures flying around everywhere so I guess that had something to do with it.


Was this like a day or two after opening day once doves had been cleaned and or lost in the field?

Should I put a bucket of water out the morning before?


I've never heard of that one. Around water can be a good spot, and any good dove field is going to have a pond or ditch holding water near it. That said, those water bodies are established, I've never heard of the bucket theory. Please correct me if my assumptions are wrong regarding the bucket of water.

I buried a kiddie pool in my sunflower field one year and kept it full of water. The doves used it, especially the ringnecks. I later found out it was illegal as hell, same as baiting with grain. Good thing we didn't shoot those doves...
