I'm hoping to get into duck hunting more in the following years, but man, reading this thread makes me want to part of it. So much negativity. Is it really that bad out there?
I'm used to deer hunting public land and I'm used to other hunters, but it's never really been an issue for me. Is it really that much worse duck hunting? I could never imagine pulling up on someone and deciding to set up shop right next to them. I think I read on another site what when asked to leave, trespassers threw beer cans in the water and hauled arse.
If it's so bad out there, why does everyone do it.
(Never watched an episode of Duck Dynasty, don't care about the social media or bragging... I'm just getting burnt out on deer hunting and want to give something else a try.)
Yes, in some places it really is that bad out there. Is it possible to get away from the topwaters and have enjoyable hunts? Yes, it just takes some thinking, equipment, and lots of money and time.
As to why does everyone do it, I really have no clue other than the typical responses already discussed: cool thing to do, lots of fun, very social hunting environment, and driven by the money machine...
I can tell you one thing for certain, if I was a hardcore public land duck hunter it certainly would not be in south LA
