Seems like every lease I've been on the last few years falls into this catagory.


It seems like to me rice field blinds are very hit and miss south of Alexandria in LA. I've only had good blue wing shoots in fields down there and good goose hunts as it seems all the ducks are in the marsh. Anyone hunting down that way think it's because of all the pressure? Have lots of good field shoots in South Arkansas, north Louisiana, and North Texas but it seems totally different from hunting around I-10.

We had a lease with him about 4 years ago and had a pretty bad year. We pretty much just sat and watched birds land in lamar and hoped a cripple would make it back to us.

Rice fields in general just aren't what they use to be. I think a lot has to do with the new rice being planted and new farming practices and better equipment. That and the fact that there just isnt near as much grain farming going on south of I10 as there use to be. Through the 70-90s there were usually between 600k-800k acres of rice in the lower part of the state. I think this year it is down to 93k, not positive, ducks dont land in cane fields.
