Living in NODAK these boys won’t see water anytime soon. Shot my first ducks over these guys. Guessing they are 60 plus years old

Living in ND, I'm sure you could still shoot plenty of ducks over them, just not sea ducks.

Bring em to big lake and I'll show you how easy it isn't.

Yeah, float those this season. That black and white will catch some eyes and you’ll have a good shoot regardless of where you’re hunting.

I throw a dozen pintails out.
They glow compared to other species.
It works.

GUARANTEE you can kill ducks over those in North Dakota! Put 'em out a time or two this year and watch

Haha I do see some old squaws from time to time so maybe I will set up the Eiders and see if I can get them in a little closer. Might even try setting them up with my swan Decoys when I try to fill my swan tag.

I'm heading to Maine in December, so I'll be a bit heartbroken if I don't get my first eider. I've got old squaw and wing-winged scoter on the Great Lakes. I've never seen any eider other than in pictures.

My first duck was a Drake Eider that I shot in Boston Harbor. You will have a fantastic time!

What's a wing-winged scoter?

How about white-winged

I hope so. I'm looking forward to it. We are all booked and set to go. Now just have to keep our fingers crossed weather and everything else works out for us.
