LIMITS & SURPRISE SPECIES! Diver Duck Hunting in the Boat Blind |
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лют 2025
- In this episode of #ROADSHOW24, we’re back on the big water with Troy Poynter of St. Clair Guide Service for an unforgettable duck hunt! After last season’s success, Ashur, Jake, and Jordan returned to the boat blind to chase birds once again. Although the early redheads had moved on and the canvasbacks were still waiting for colder weather up north, we were treated to some incredible wingshooting. With plenty of bluebills, green-winged teal, and even a few mallards, the action was non-stop. Plus, we got a rare surprise visit from a scoter! As Troy always says, each year on St. Clair is different, but with birds finishing perfectly over the F1 Cans, Redheads, Bluebills, and Mallard Floaters, it was another epic day on the water. Don’t miss the excitement and surprises in this episode-subscribe for more action from #ROADSHOW24!

Old squaw! Super fun bird to hunt and crazy hard to hit. Watching a group of drake old quad come down the long lines is a thing of beauty. Connor.b645
Woodies for sure nothing beats a fully plumed drake and the mullet looks badass! -spaydy22
There’s nothing like Widgeons. I know you guys slay them everyday but they decoy so well and a real bull widgeon is a thing of beauty- white wing patches on the swing, aggressive whistling, and it’s not just their blocky shape but their head profile too. Of course there is always the REMOTE possibility of a Euro or Storm but I have yet to see either… out of hundreds. Ringnecks for pure lack of fear and absolute determination are a close second! In reality, I love them all. @jtdurant
Same
The swing when you hit a widgeon with the whistle is up there with the classic mallard swing. Something so basic yet satisfying, imitating their call and it responds immediately and hard turns back into you … god inject that into my veins 😂 I love it
Divers no doubt, there is nothing better then big groups of divers, not only do you get big groups but you never know what your going to shoot my best mixed bags have been on diver hunts
Troy was my guide in Canada last year. Dudes an absolute machine
Widgeon, hands down one of the coolest sounding and looking ducks they also decoy great
brantbabin
Canadian honkers definitely my top pick. Just watching them all coming in to land with the sun rise in the background is just the best in a layout blind with your buddy’s. - Claydog17
Redheads/Bluebills/Canvasback! Great video....y'all put the hurt on that one flock of bills!! Let's go!
Canada goose would be my pick. They are the most fun to hunt in the field. Thanks for these vids. They are so awesome. keep em’ coming
I shot my first ever bird out on the open water of the St Lawrence last week and I'm absolutely hooked on divers. I got a Common Goldeneye that came in fast and hard and it was a hell of an experience and I can't wait to get back out there, what a thrill!
Mallards hands down just seeing them work into the decoys and respond to your calling will get you going- jordan cribb
Bufflehead hands down the best duck. Their pink feet and beautiful colored head along with the white on the drakes. Watching flocks of them work over your decoys on big bodies of water is just a sight to see. Also there whistling wings early morning before shooting is wonderful to hear. - justinchilders8
Ducks all the way baby let’s go,been a grate year 2024.get out on the water boys the birds are moving!!!!!!
Canvasbacks all the way. The king of ducks.
Blue Wing Teal, There’s nothing like chasing rice rockets from the sounds they make flying over you, to the challenge they give trying to get a clear shot. Oh not to mention the table fare they bring!
@1kdesmo
Gotta go with the good ole wood duck nothing like hearing them get up and at it at day break💪
Gotta love BWT! Blue rockets in warm weather baby!
Teal by far the best
Green wing teal our my favorite just cause of their colors
Love divers , watching the big groups come in really love a full redhead or blue bill . Coolest duck I’d have to say is mature ruddy duck with the Carolina blue bills .
Dzeller24
Canadian geese 100%. Always love to hear them coming in.
If it works into the spread, its my favorite. If it flies it dies
Snows and blues all day long everyday!!!!
Hands down Canadian Geese!!!! Love them honkers 🙌🙌🙌
tylercoburn32
Wood duck. They’re gorgeous and super acrobatic, plus they taste the best personally and in Idaho not a lot of people shoot them and I have me a little honey hole.
Ringnecks for the sound they make when the wind rips over their wings as the dive bomb into view! I’ve never been upset about a 6 drake Ringneck hunt! Walkn_Wild
Man there ain’t nothing like carrying on a conversation with a speck. Vocal, respond to call, small limits in the southeast, makes you soak it up more! lborden1
Big Canada honkers all day. Can’t beat the excitement when laying in a field with some buddies and the honkers are doing it dirty coming in like planes landing. -tuckerb1776
I would definitely choose speckled belly’s
Teal definitely the coolest
Wigeon for sure!!! Literally the coolest bird and decoy so well -Connor_vancleave
Pintails hands down for me. Great tasting duck.
Big fat greenheads boys!
Canvasback , nothing decoys like cans 😉
Goldeneye’s they decoy so nice and can’t beat them whistling wings
Ringers for the win! They do it dirty and it’s my family heritage to whack ringnecks. Up in MN it’s one of the most prevalent species around during hunting season.
Nothing beats having coots in your face. Love your decoys and vids .
_danny_cornell_
Specks… specklebellies… Tar Bellies… Bar bellies…Laughing Goose…Giggle Chickens…. Once you see em flipping upside down and waffling into the spread, you’re hooked for life.
awgomes
Hunting them Slopeheads all day long. One of the coolest looking and working ducks out there! @Baalman24
So many rigs SURROUNDING you guys...... Damn
Canvasbacks!
South text coast duck hunter here and when they come in to the decoys in deep water across the bay there’s nothing els like it
Dude puddle ducks for sure but more specifically pintails!!! Man just that brown and white along with those mature back feathers and the sprig! So beautiful. T4t3_
Wood ducks.
Nothing more beautiful than wood duck dipping and diving through the timber. Can’t beat that beautiful mullet.
@Coledcook
Puddle ducks for sure.
woodies, you just gotta love the early morning timber hunts
Anything landing in the decoys is great!! But my favorite is probably a Drake mallard or drake wood duck! Love the content fellas big big fan!!
Kwilly_52
Ducks 🦆 Baby ducks are moving get in your blinds🎉!!!
MALLARDS
Definitely would be divers laying in a layout boat. Watching the birds work the decoys and laying in the decoys watching the birds come down the long lines to you. Nothing is better!!
nelliscaleb
Gadwalls, super pretty and decoy better than any other duck I have ever had come in. -Tshep1306
Them big old honkdaddy’s. They are really good in stew. Kadonstill
My boy rocking the franchi now hell yah
Green wing teal for me. Aerobatic geniuses, don’t weigh much to carry back and always eat well.
Definitely gonna be snows, can’t beat the big spins
Canvasbacks are #1 strictly for the Huzz
Lparker_Eubanks
Woodies. Love chasing them on small creeks and beaver ponds.
Hustled.tony
Gotta go with the ol Matt Judy special, the widge. Gotta love them cottantops doin it absolutely dirty in the decoys
Blaine.Humphrey
Woodies all the way
Mallards 100%
Always on the hunt for timber mallards! -SmekOutdoors
Mallards!
Yall are my favorite UA-cam channel
Mallards. They're big, and one of the best eating ducks, but they also are the species that works the decoys the best. They respond better to calling, and when they do it right they hover in your face right over the decoys.
Pintails without a doubt, especially with those mature tail feathers, gorgeous bird - bradygilliam18
Mallards, just watching em work, and decoying nothing better than a stud mallard-tofterylan
@huntdux4. Love the teal....Decoy well and are an awesome challege
Mallards because they are a prettiest duck ever
Nice hunt! I’m right down the water way on Lake Erie, Michigan. I will have to check out Troy at St. Clair hunt guides. Sweet!
Golden eye! diver hunting is over looked. happy to see yall beat on em good!!
@michaelfrank96
I have never shot a pintail, but they are the best looking ducks out there, i believe
Canvasbacks 100%
Mallards! I grew up in the summers watching mallards on ponds at my grandparents farm. Something special about them, iconic even. They’re like the whitetail deer of the South!
@edmistenadventures
Pheasant
Definitely a mallard
Swans on the great Salt Lake While smashing the teal
Ringnecks are pretty sick coming down from the heavens sounding like fighter jets but there is nothing quite like a 100% pure Florida Mallard (Mottled) locking up and giving you a nice backpedal.
Blake.Leatherman
Can't beat a great Gadwall shoot. I still have yet to find a duck that decoys harder than a group of gaddies hitting the deck. The_duck_slayer
Divers for the challenges they present!🤟 @Kentuuri
I’d have to say the good ole mallard, not because they’re the biggest or most common, but mostly because you can find a mallard in almost anything. Chasing only them for the rest of your life, you’d never know what the next morning sit will look like.
Edit: and a mallard will bang anything so there’s a chance at some cool hybrids
TylrJRobinson
That’s harpooning swordfish in Italy video is sick AF though
Hands down wood ducks. Nothing beats the fluorescent colors on them, and they have the best tasting meat. Can’t wait for the day I get one worth mounting @clause1
Good dog work great hunt
Mallards for sure.
Wood ducks!! Nothing beats a Woodie diving into mojos in a corn field! Hunterpesek12
Amazing footage y'all! From Sophia, N.C.
Pintails and coots! LOL Lance.howk
Lemme go ahead and be the weird one. Hooded merganser drakes… one of my favorite birds to kill. Everyone hates on them but I love the way they look.
dylan_caveness
My absolute favorite is a Canadian goose. I love hearing the honkers off in the distance and working them into the spread.
@landenoney
Widgeons are cool
@marvraymond
I would have to say honkers. I love a layoutblind hunting a corn field with big ol Canada's in your face.
Either Canadians, or spoons. No doubt in my mind. Some of the most fun hunting I’ve ever had. Something about a big honker locked up. -adam.sasser99
I’m taking mallards all day. Chaserhinton
Specks because there always gonna be different no specks have the same pattern and there just super fun to shoot definitely enjoy the way they fly in tho the spread don’t have instagram but that would be my go to for sure
Gadwall/ grey ducks! No doubt you get a group of about 25-50 back flapping over the decoys! 🥵🥵🥵
@hunter_greene2919
Fall Snow geese.. They are the best bird when it all lines up. Big spins, big spreads, big smiles. Chasing that white dragon never gets old. @erik.p.evensen
I’m gonna say honkers, live the mallards and the ducks but down here in Oklahoma we don’t always have many ducks as we do ducks so I’m gonna go with Canadian honkers
Canvasbacks bc of how much they work and how hard it is to decoy in
Black ducks, particularly the ones over small water
d_mcgov
Dry land corn mallards. From the great northwest public blind.
Smiling mallards
Honkers for sure
