Howdy! I have a few questions for some of you savvy duck hunters.
I have always hunted ponds on private property and I am having a hard time with hunting on a lake and I'm wondering if anyone can give pointers. I won't be hunting out of a boat and there won't be any permanent blinds. I'm not trying to steal anybody's spot, I am just looking for a little assistance.
My questions would be:
What size/type of spread do you recommend?
Should I be hunting points or inlets or does it just depend on the wind?
Is there certain vegation commonly found on lake shores that I should be looking for to put me in a good spot?
Should I even bother bringing duck calls?
And when I have ducks passing by 150-200 yards out that are showing no interest should I even bother trying to bring them in?
Once again, I've never hunted a lake before so be gentle, these may be stupid questions. Any help is appreciated!
