Duck Hunting

Be smart, travel light, and be prepared.  Instead, as a plan B, I tend to bring everything I might need to the marsh and field. 

I’ve spent this season in Kryptek’s new waterfowl line and what I’ve found is that I can hunt from 60 degrees and sunny down to temps so cold that the water has frozen while my decoys sat in it.

In the world of waterfowl, “hide” is key. Ducks can see and hear, but getting a good hide is top of the list for a good day of hunting.

The defining feature of the CZ 1012 lineup is the gas-less inertia operating system. The 1012 operates differently from other shotguns and utilizes a spring to harness energy.

Technology advances our waterfowl hunting. Lucky Duck knows this and their new HD 2.0 Remote increases the field of options now available to us duck hunters.

Beginning in 1935, with what at the time was the first waterfowl census, the International Wild Duck Census began to take a look at the population.

Most will agree in the early season and with those hunting ducks further north, spinners are indeed a must.

If you are like me you tend to buy calls, use them, like them, hate them and move on to the next one.  Calls take a ton of abuse and often we pay little or no attention to taking care of them both for maintenance and for adjustments.  I sat down with a good friend and someone that calls as well as anyone I know, to discuss the call components and how anyone can disassemble, adjust, and rebuild just about any call with a few spare parts.

This definitely isn’t your grandpa’s A5 that you envied for years while sitting in the blind or walking the hunting fields with him. However, it very well may be the Sweet Sixteen that your grandkids will envy just as much.
