Wow how hilarious!! A migration! there is barely a migration in this state. Duck hunting in minnesota has declined almost to the point where they should shut it down. Do you have any idea what the minnesota migration used to be? it use to last for days on days it didnt matter where you lived, there was ducks everywhere.[PoorWordUsage] it didnt even matter about the migration there was actully ducks then all season long without one. Them days are long gone. The ducks in this state are long gone too.Wanna know what happened to the ducks THEY GOT SHOT!!!!!.there are way to many hunters in this sate and they claim theres not. They must be high!! hunting is nothing but a sales gig now days. i remember when i was younger i could have shot 10 boxes a day on a slough if i wanted. now days you cant even hunt anywhere with out tons of people. not to mention you got people who think they can shoot at ducks at 50 yards or above HA! my god they must be out of there minds. If the dnr was smart they would shut it down or drop the limit drastically, or have a very short season. I have watched the ducks decline my entire life and its getting worse and worse. I know you got your private spot hunters who are gonna respond and say hunting is just great! ya right open your eyeballs. Hunting know days is just a bunch of show offs seeing who can cover there vehicles in the most stickers and buy the most expensive call. wow its sad the whole united states duck numbers are poor. Do you actully think any of the large orginazations are gonna tell you "ya there are no ducks or the numbers are way way down" [PoorWordUsage] NO because then they will loose money god forbid. People will stop spending 300 dollars on a call and 2000 dollars on there benelli shotguns. Its a sad state of affairs. I duck hunt all over the country but was born and raised in MN. They should triple the cost of a license and use the money to pull out the drain tile that all the farmers put in to dry up the wetlands years ago after all mn use to have more wetlands then the dakotas.I would like to hear others opinions,im sure there are some educated duck hunters that might relate.
