Duck season dates (updated with map)

July 3, 2012 -- The Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission tentatively approved proposed duck hunting dates for the 2012-2013 season at their July 2 meeting.
The dates were presented by the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) for the new three-zone waterfowl season framework that now includes a coastal zone, added recently to the east-west zone configuration that had been in place for decades.
The proposed duck season dates for 2012-2013 are as follows:
Coastal Zone: Nov. 10 – Dec. 2 and Dec. 15 – Jan. 20 (Youth Hunt Nov. 3-4)
East Zone: Nov. 17 – 25 and Dec. 8 – Jan. 27. (Youth Hunt Feb. 2-3)
West Zone: Nov. 10 – Dec. 9, and Dec. 22 – Jan. 20. (Youth Hunt Nov. 3-4)
The dates recommended reflect preferences noted in the recent waterfowl hunter survey conducted by the Department via a mail-out and an on-line survey form.

Better date for a youth hunt up here. If it was earlier, they would have a hard time getting a shot.

I think Feb. 3 is Super Bowl Sunday. Gonna be hard to get someone to take a youth hunting IMO

Glad they moved the youth hunt to after the season. I'm tired of shooting at birds opening morning that were just shot at last week.

I guess it's pros & cons either way.

yeah north east of VP theres alot of rice field hunting. And then there's Millers and Cazan Lake hunting clubs that usually do well.

I'm looking to get started duck hunting this year and literally have nothing but an adequate gun at this point, so I'll be starting a thread at some point asking how to get started.
With that being said, is there any decent public land hunting in the southeast part of the East zone? I'm not asking for specifics because I know how that works, but just wondering how much I should plan to travel.

No boat.
