Is duck hunting Louisiana all by boat?


Hell no! When the limits were only 3 back in the 90s....buddy and I walked 1/4 mile in Sabine Refuge with 3 dozen dekes, two shotguns..and a silty mud bottom that you'd sink up to your nads in...and then up to your chest in water.

On the bright side...I was in some of the best shape of my life back then.

I read this whole thread and I got you all beat.

Saturday evening sitting in my shoothouse with the plexiglass sliders still closed because it was a little nippy, I ripped a fart that almost made me fall out of the fricking thing. You guys don't know struggle.

Ive definitely heard of worse. For instance, my teacher in HS had her husband get shot in the head by her father on a duck hunt.

You kill a banded duck and its in your top five worst. Where do you normally hunt, in a park.

My very first duck hunt went as followed.

Slept over at my friends house on the couch. The couch had this horrible bar that landed perfectly on the lower back. Hardly slept. Got up at 3AM. Drove about 1.5 hours to our place. It was about 25 degrees that morning and all the water was frozen over with about 3/4 inch ice. Had to wade through that to get to our area. Once there, I started to get really really cold because I can't ever get my damn feet warm even with 1200 plus thinsulate. Come shooting time, not a single damn duck passes over. We eventually started shooting the ice because of boredom.

My bad hunts always seem to happen when all water gets pushed out and we are walking or trying to push pirogue through sink to mid calf every step kinda mud.

I have a funny one from my old lease when i was in high school. Going hunting one morning just me and a buddy and my dog. Water has blown out due to the north wind and its about 30 degrees. Busting the remaining ice/mud/slush with the boat in the canal. Well the fricking crabber left a trap in the canal and with the water being low i smoked it with my old 40 shortshaft tohatsu. My dog straight ejects 20 yards into the air and into the canal and i go flying all the way to front and crash heads with my buddy (he was 240 i was 150 i lost). All our shite is either in the grass or in the canal. Well since we came off plane I couldnt get us back on step with the water being so low. Well after collecting all our gear we try to make it to the go-devil boat where we would switch out. Also at this time i realize i split my head open when i went flying the full 20 feet of my tunnel hull. Anyways we finally walk the last 300 yards to the other boat. Load up the little boat to head to the blind. Didnt think with it being so cold that the compression on the block would be basically frozen. I pull the ole rubber handle, the knot at the end breaks loose, i punch myself square in the nose, and knock myself out unconscious. Buddy wakes me up i am look straight into the sky with warm blood pouring from my nose. Well i stumble up...fall back down...try one more time..fell back over.....gave it one more shot.....then went head first in a huge pile salt grass....BOOM! I crawl on my hands and knees to where he is. He is laughing his arse off. Told him to go frick himself and to throw out some decoys in the canal and shoot whatever comes in. This is the time before cell-phones so around 1130 my dad comes down the canal in another boat. Im sitting in the little go-devil boat covered in blood, my buddy has his ducks around his neck, and my dog is just running around chasing marsh hens. He pulls up and looks at me and then looks at my buddy and says "Well at least you and Charger had a good hunt". He killed 6 teal and i gave myself a concussion.
