Several years ago, I thought it would be an adventure to strap on a pair of waders and head into the mucky marsh swamps in search of a limit of ducks. There are not a lot of video on this one so you pretty much have to wing it so to speak. I’m pretty good at winging it and decided the first thing I would need is a pair of waders. I found a pair at a local sporting goods store, and to my surprise, was fairly inexpensive. Later I would find out why. They had everything from brush resistant waders to thin fishing waders. I opted for the thin waders to go over my hunting clothes. After all, water doesn’t poke holes in waders. Nonetheless, I had a pair of waders and equipped my shotgun with a choke tube suitable for shooting steel shot. I was on my way. |

After my first couple of seasons of getting my feet wet, literally, I set out to go where the ducks are. I have a friend who has some family in Stuttgart and told us that we could come over to his place and hunt with him for free. I was all about some free so we planned to go the following winter. He had some great swamps to hunt and had access to even more flooded timber if we didn’t have any luck on his spots. We loaded up, four of us in all, and headed for Arkansas. |
