I am new to waterfowl hunting and have got some private access on the river. I built a blind, got some decoys, learned to call and have had some really good success.
The season goes until January 28th but regulations state that no Scaup can be taken after January 9th. The problem is I have not shot any Scaup yet and wouldnt know one if I saw one.
We have been mostly shooting all the ducks that pass through and then learning what they are after the shot. Making jerkey and such from the divers that are "less than desirable" table fare. I dont want my season to be done on the 9th but Im just not good enough to know the ducks in flight before I pull the trigger. What would you do in my shoes?
