Just like two years ago was terrible for us, but last year was one of our best years out of the last 10


thats my point. I'm not dismissing or marginalizing anyone's experiences or frustration. But it seems last year was good all over the state. This year shitty everywhere.

So is it cyclical? Was last year an anomaly? Or is the change irrevocably for the worse? Were they not warming ponds last year up north? Maybe after 50 years of getting shot at, ducks have evolved to go elsewhere.

I have a lease in KS and we shot more grey ducks this year than we have in the past 7 (by a wide margin). We also shot less mallards because they were still on SD/NE border as of last week. We scratched our birds, but not the piles of mallards we have in the past. Point being, the ducks just didn’t make it down this year. Just my opinion from someone that hunts in Midwest but grew up hunting in La/MS duck blinds. Odd year everywhere. I know many folks in KS/NE/AR that say this is the worst year they’ve ever had.
