explain a duck lease to me

[hoghunter69]

hope to do my first duck hunt this year and alot more next year, can anyone explain how a duck lease works, and any advice where to look

[Cajun Blake]

you lease a blind for thousands of dollars for 60 days

fight Mosquitos , snakes, and deer flies

watch nutria and alligators steal your floating dead ducks

sometimes deal with neighboring blinds who can't call and shoot Hail Mary shots at ducks 90 yds away

and pray for cold weather and rain to move birds

that sums it up

^^^ that's funny.

Best thing you can do is find a small fice farmer and approach him for hunting rights. There are some deer leases with great duck hunting on them as well. I have been looking for the right place as well. Harder to find than a good deer lease.

$1k is a heck of a deal! Everything else is accurate

I typed "thousands" as in plural

my friend wrote a $5500 check for his duck lease

flooded rice fields, 4 man blind , no boat necessary

still no big ducks right now , to hot , lots of teal

Lots of prayers that ducks come to where you are.

Had no idea duck hunting was that expensive we have a good amount of ducks on our deer lease and hunt them maybe once or twice and thats only me and one other guy last year that did, the others dont have an interest in them

Well I was.... thinking about duck hunting some myself.
That's a hoot!

[justincorbell]

Cajun blake pretty well summed it up!

[Cajun Blake]

IMO, prime duck hunting leases are more expensive than deer hunting

another thing, not uncommon for some duck hunters to have $10,000 tied up in a quality retriever

[knighttime]

Just buy yourself 4-6 trips somewhere and save yourself a lot of headache!

You missed the s on the end- that's THOUSANDS

Or you can have all that for free on public land & wait in line likes it an Apple Store before the new iPhone!

Don't forget having to pay for water. Yes I said water. Some leases have the land and water as separate costs.
