I've got drawn for a Wister 12/3 hunt #19. Completely new duck hunter. Have zero decoys. Spent all my time chasing big game out of state and now transitioning to bird and duck. I can only get out till about 7:30am that morning. Is it even worth it to go down for an hour n half? I think I can bring 2 more guests with myself there. Not sure the rules are if I have to dip out early morning.

I guess I'm just seeing if anyone wants to meet up or has input on the need for decoys.
 
JW,

Hopefully, by then the place will have dried out some and the next full moon will bring in new birds...The 1st 1 1/2 can be the best, but big ducks like sprig, will many times come back mid day...Also, you're allowed 4 people per reservation (Plus 2 juniors)...I can't remember, if there's any decoys in my trailer, but if there are, you're more than welcome to use them......... :blush:
 
My Buddy hunts there every Wednesday and Saturday and he lives down in the valley. DM me if you want some help.

I ended up not making it down. My two little girls got sick, and then I had a work meeting at 9:30 so it meant I was only gonna be able to go for about an hour. Just figured it wasn’t worth the drive and the cost and fuel.

For sure, gonna try to walk on on the 17th though
Dam should have taken the work meeting from the blind.

Hahah!

I’m going to go down Saturday morning. Try to walk on after the sweat line. If I can’t get on I’ll go do some coyote in the valley.

Do you know? For walk on after sweat line do we still have to be to stand by 3am. I imagine they don’t get to walk ins till at least 4am

They start walk ons the minute the last sweatline number is called. 4 should be about right.
