Duck Numbers

Postby DoublePslayer » Fri Nov 18, 2016 8:05 am

Just an FYI to everyone, but a friend of mine flew the duck survey for MDWFP this past week, and said there are not enough ducks in the delta to shake a stick at. The only concentration of any number that he saw were on some private land in Tallahatchie county, and those weren't anything to write home about.

The dept should have waited until this front came through and then flown their survey.

Better yet they should fly the survey again this week. See what effect the recent
Cold front had on the duck numbers

I think the duck survey is flown 4 times each winter.

However Corn Patrol flies every day before and after lunch.

Stay straight down there. ;)

Delta Wildlife actually helps pay for the surveys, which are conducted 4 times a year. Here is a link to the survey page: http://www.mdwfp.com/wildlife-hunting/w ... ports.aspx

Glad I've got a dozen or so coveys that I can shoot.

Wild birds? Dozen coveys?? Damn the state needs to hire you to help them figure out how to grow "the gentleman's bird".

Got setters or pointers??
