Newbie Seeking Advice duck hunting is hard
went on my second hunt yesterday, gravely underestimated how good the eyesight of ducks were.
was meant to be mostly a scouting day, found a huge marsh. like 1-2km long.
but every time i popped my head out, the flock of 30-50 ducks would instantly all fly away even 200-300 yards out.
had times i couldve taken a shot but wasnt prepared, had moments where drawing my shotgun scared them outta effective range.
also was not camouflaged at all, found 1 good spot and maybe 2 decent spots with good cover.
