First Duck Hunt of 2022 (Big Duck Season) - Texas Public Land

An absolutely great full day of duck hunting with one of my best friends and my dog. And an incredible sunset to end the day! Does it get any better? Maybe...if we had shot just a few more ducks ;) ...but not by much.
First duck hunt at one of our local lakes here in Southeast Texas. Alot of scouting and prep went into this hunt. Saw good numbers of ducks, but we were just not on the X that day...
November 2022. Full day - Morning and evening hunts

That was a fun day

[@alleyoop9099]

This is the first I've ever heard of even a square foot of public land in Texas.

[@tkflifeoutdoors7454]

Texas is one of the highest privately owned states (% wise). Public land is definitely few and far between, and that makes it so damn hard. It honestly sucks. We miss our lease everyday. But when you have a passion...you work with what you got

[@alleyoop9099]

@@tkflifeoutdoors7454 yeah, honestly it pisses me off that we've got land that goes on forever and and it all belongs to someone else. You can't even find long distance shooting ranges that are remotely affordable. Great gun laws but no place to shoot. That pretty much doesn't match up well. We also have 254 counties and that's fishy too.

I feel you there. It's depressing. And the land that is privately owned costs about a kidney per acre if you want a piece of the pie for yourself. I just want to not see my neighbors, and kill ducks and deer...is that too much to ask for? Lol
