  • This morning hunt from our 2021 November duck hunting season was one I had been looking forward to! Drew had scouted this spot a couple times before season and seen a good mix of mallards, black ducks, woodies, and teal so our hopes were high going in. We took the kayaks back to a hole in the willows and come first light we were covered up in ducks. The morning had some lulls but the action was fast when it came and we ended with mixed bag limits. Hope you enjoy!

    Ducks will eat American lotus seeds. Also known as duck acorns. Its a nice native plant, but it can create heavy monotypic stands which isn't really ideal. That hole looks nice and appears to have a decent mix of other vegetation. Cool hunt!

    • @HokeOutdoors
      @HokeOutdoors  Рік тому +1

      I appreciate the info! It definitely has crowded out some other moist soil plants in this spot but lucky there's still some solid patches of smartweed and lots of duckweed which seems to be able to grow even in the areas that the American lotus is thick
