How To
How to hunt wild Ducks
Decoys are one of the most popular methods to hunt wild ducks. The best method is to use live decoy birds and set them up at a distance from your blind so you can see them from afar. Avoid hunting in windy conditions as birds will quickly flee. A few hunters might be too much for some birds.
When hunting wild ducks, make sure you know how many birds you want to shoot. If you don’t know which type of bird your shooting is, you should not shoot. Make sure you have enough ammunition to take down whatever number of birds you want.
If you do end with killing many birds you will want to clean the meat and prepare it before you eat. It's best to cook the meat right away because it dries out very fast once you start cooking it. Remove any bones or feathers from the meat once it is done.
Wild ducks often live near water, but they can sometimes be seen flying through fields of woods or swamps. Because they fly low to ground, it makes them easy targets. Keep your distance from wild duck hunters until you are close enough to take a shot. It means that you should remain quiet while waiting to get a shot.
