Teal hunt
Maurepas swamp wma
73 degrees, partly cloudy with 3 mph south wind
Beretta A400, light modified with #3 steel
DR-85 duck call

Kayak hunt with 6 BWT decoys. Seen a boatload of wood ducks but zero teal so far. Lots of Tupelo gum fruits floating, guessing that’s what Al the woodies are feeding on. Around 8am I’ll move further down and look around for a different spot and”burr, burr, burr on the call. Good luck to all out this morning.

Haven’t hunted maurepas in years. Have you had success on teal recently?

About 10 years ago we hunted it pretty regularly and had some really good teal seasons. Multiple boat limits almost every trip. That lasted for 2-3 years then the number of birds using the area and ability to access the area just continually got worse. That swamp needs a steady influx of fresh water. It’s so choked off from thick mat grass and salvinia type vegetation. In its 70’s and 80’s, it was some prime waterfowl habitat
