Every time I hear "gadwall" I think of Roddy McDowell in the movie "That Darned Cat."

Grew up and hunt in NELA and I didn't hear the term "grey duck" until I went to LSU and hunted with buddies in south LA.

Also, I think " squealer" is a dump nickname. I never heard that until I got on the OB.

You grew up in Nela duck hunting and never heard anybody call a wood duck a squealer? I find that hard to believe

I really didn't duck hunt at all until hs, but yeah, never heard it.
Hunted the Sage and Tensas back in the day.

I usually just call them 'greys'

Gotcha. I heard them called that as much as wood duck, woodie, or whatever growing up.

I guess its odd I've never heard squealer. I grew up in Bastrop and went to hs in Monroe. They were always woodies or wood ducks.

I had heard a few different names for various ducks growing up, but it wasn't until college that I met people from Avoyelles Parish. Still don't have a freakin clue what they're talking about,

Seems like just south LA people call them grey ducks. Raised in north LA and we call em gadwalls. Ring necks and blue bills are all jacks to me.
