Flyway Federation of Louisiana?
I can show you something right here in Cameron and Vermillion Parish that proves the point of flooded corn. How many folks know or believe there is flooded corn in both parishes? Well folks there is some in both! and also acre after acre of flooded rice fields. You can drive the backroads past miles of rice and see few if any birds. Guess which one you cant run the ducks out of right now with a broom? What little corn there is those guys are not posting on FB and other social media outlets. They filling straps and planning how to plant more for next season. Instead of fighting it they are trying to plan for it.

there is flooded corn in several la parishes.... dude go run crawfish boats through it the ducks will leave it.... yeah.. I grew up with one of those guys..... they are hammering the ducks.. but they were hammering them before they did that... it creates a better hunting spot it doesn't hold ducks..it takes enormous amounts to hold ducks... like the 1500 acres of standing beans in st landry parish NOT getting hunted.....

so they used your crawfish ponds mainly at night?

Yep and next year I plan on adding a few more acres to that total. You talk about “unethical” way to hunt. Then take away calls, decoys and blinds. Those are all tricking ducks and “unethical”.

And by the way, Terrell, stop posting all that shite on the duck hunters Facebook group. Used to be a good group till all see is post about “facts”.

Don’t talk about crawfish ponds unless you have experienced what I state. Don’t blow smoke uo my butt. As for the totals acres of flooded corn; it vast and growing.

ive managed 1500 acres of rice and 1500 acres of crawfish.... for a billion dollar company.. why you think those birds learned to leave at daylight........ quit crawfishing one 1500 parcel hunting success tripled the next year....

A lot of you are blaming our low numbers on weather. That’s a real easy scapegoat. Most of them weren’t around when flights after flights of big ducks used to be seen in the middle to late October a few decades ago. This WAS the natural migration. They were looking for food. It’s when the skirting of the MBTA began with all this unharvested flooded corn in refuges and new “duck paradises “. This artificially changed the behavior of ducks from then on. They were issued EBT cards and became dependent on all this free lunch. It doesn’t matter how much cold or snow falls. These birds never have to go any further. They have been successful in changing the migration over just a few years. Ducks are a natural resource that’s supposed to be shared by all, not just a few big wheels. It’s supposed to be a “fair chase “ hunt; not a killing field.

so much has changed since then bro

you used to have good habitat in SE LA now a duck can hardly find a place to sit that doesnt have salvinia or hyacinth or a damn subdivision

I am sorry your hole that you and your peepaw hunted is now a garhole

very few places left that you can sit in same spot day after day and kill then consistently

it used to actually get pretty damn cold during duck season a few decades ago

Rice flooded after harvest has been a normal ag practice for since rice has been cultivated as an ag crop.

No it hasn't. What's the point of flooding rice after it's been harvested?

maybe back in the day flooding a harvested field was common agriculture practice but nowadays if u flood a harvested rice field it is for either crawfishing or duck hunting

that's why the day after duck season farmers are letting the water out their fields

---

Exactly. I don't know a single damn farmer that floods his field for the hell of it. It costs money to turn a well on; he's only doing that for a specific reason.

LMAO

Actually only decoys, a call and a blind is all that should be allowed. That would weed out a bunch of those sky busters.
