Always heard them called gray ducks in the Mobile Delta. Most common "big duck" over there.

They must migrate at night. Several times I've gone to bed at my camper in October with zero coots on the lake only to wake up the next morning to see a couple of hundred.

Especially on opening weekend. There's a couple hundred extra motivational reasons for them to fly the frick out as fast as possible instead of casually swimming away. 
eta: maisweh, what time y'all headin out? May have to have a lil' OB and meet and greet.

No shite... HUH.. It's a joke... They do fly, but they don't come close to the flight of ducks... Ever see those frickers land, not the most graceful bird...
Why do people on this site take shite so literally...?

They migrate by land, have you never seen a mass land migration while bow hunting?

Yep, having them fly by your feet as you're hanging in a tree so they can land in the puddles on the road is pretty cool.

no. Saw an otter migrating that way once though. Posted on 11/19/15 at 2:18 pm to CootDisCootDat
speaking of Trudy's, I may stop in for some fried chicken.
if ya'll pushing, we're probably going to pass yall up at sometime during the journey
the only camp I can think of on that side of the canal is toward the end, right before it splits off. unless its before that?

We will be halfway to the lake in the main bayou from 3 Bayou....the split and that camp you are talking about.

My dad's generation called Mallards French Ducks..... Or Canard de Fransais

I've only called them grey ducks -- hunted all over the SE though but primarily in SE Missouri and NW Tennessee
Other nick names I've always used: spoonies, blackjacks (or just jacks), bluebills
