re: Found some old hunting pictures I've been looking for

Arkansas has traditionally always held mallards. I think the answer is the change in farming practices. Look at the trends in rice acreage in South Louisiana and contrast that to Arkansas and Missouri. Combine with no till corn farming further up north and only a few make it to the marsh. There are still places in the marsh where green heads pile in. My buddy has a place like this, but it's in SW LA and it's freshwater marsh.

Great pics hat. I hunt close to that area now and see maybe 15-20 French a year. It really sucks.

They put up a huge net that the ducks cannot fly over.

It's a really tall net.

It's the most absurd one I've heard, so I had to post it.

yeah ive heard some pretty absurd stuff but i know for sure about the pumping water and the soybeans...saw it at a refuge when i was at reelfoot lake....im amazed that we were able to hammer smack the ducks while we were there.....there were a stupid amount of ducks on the refuge...ducks were landing in the grass and trying to fit in water....it was ridiculous the ducks didnt even like work and cup they just like hoovered and floated down

Wish the greenheads would still come down in those numbers, is that around Dulac?

Is that Mr. Allen of Bluewater Seafood in the first picture?

Those are some really great pics hat.

Thanks for sharing.
