TOP 10 (lower 48)

[the doctor]

Hey guys needing some input. Thinking about a bucket list of sorts for waterfowling experiences in the lower 48. What would be your top 10 (even if you haven't been) experiences, places etc coupled with a species?

Trying to think along the lines of iconic places as well like Beaver Dam, Chesapeake Bay etc.

An example would be Greenheads in the timber Stuttgart AR.

Go!

Thanx in advance,

I know a guy that can get you on a first class wood duck shoot on the Bogue. Let me know if that makes your top 10.

Doc, I know you said Lower 48, but I am going to suggest Alaska as an ultimate bucket list waterfowling destination. I have killed black brant, Canada geese, mallards, pintails, teal, widgeon, harlequins, oldsquaw, whitewing scoter, black scoter, bufflehead, common goldeneye, greater scaup and several others up there.
