re: Sen Kennedy wants more ducks in Louisiana.
Posted by miramon on 1/9/26 at 7:26 am to Outdoorreb
If it’s not corn that is so appealing to the mallard duck, and rather a distaste for southern habitat, then someone needs to explain why Duckbriar in Shelby, Ms, winters so many mallards every year.
Anyone who has had the pleasure to hunt there or has friends who hunt there know they kill mallards like no place else down here. They also have a massive flooded corn stand that they do not hunt, but will take guests to observe in the evenings to watch the tornado or ducks coming to roost.
So the question would be if all these places up the flyway stop flooding huge fields of corn, how long before those mallards quit using their farms and end up back in the public woods.

What is your preferred method? I recently picked up a m guillotine style box-shaped trap which is basically 5ft high, 5ft wide, and maybe 8 ft deep. I thought success would come quicker. They seem to be pretty wise to it even though I placed it right on a travel corridor.
I’m betting some form of C trap.

I agree but seeing as I have worn it for a year or more at this point it just doesn’t seem right to gripe to them about it.
I will say, if you just like that style of shirt, western cut pearl snaps, academy has some that are dang close. I don’t remember the brand and I don’t know the price but I’d imagine they’re a lot less.
I much prefer snap shirts to buttons because the snaps don’t come undone in 6 months time like buttons.

I have 4 at this point. I believe some of their earlier shirts had some QC issues. One of mine is considerably shorter and tighter than the rest, and they put the last pearl snap almost all the way at the bottom of the shirt, which looks pretty odd. I should have just returned that shirt since it was obviously screwed up.
Another one I have, the collar is messed up and I can’t figure out why. It doesn’t spread open at the top like a button down shirt collar should. It just goes straight up on each side so it appears that I have the very top button snapped and I look like a Mexican gangbanger.
The other two are perfect.

We used a 40 foot flatbed trailer across a creek on our place. It has worked well so far. Only been about a year. Tied it down with mobile home screw augers and steel cable. A place in Shreveport was selling the trailers as bridges with railings on them, so we didn’t have to do the manual labor of stripping it down ourselves. They delivered it to us in Ms for $500 I believe. The trailer itself cost $7500. I believe this was our best option.

My place just about borders southside’s bottomland to the North. From what I can tell, they get a handful of really good mallard hunts each season which is about as much as you can ask for in Mississippi in 2025. I have no idea how good their deer hunting is but there are a ton of deer in the general area and I’d imagine they have all the right habitat perfectly curated over there for raising and keeping big deer.
Lorman, Ms up against the river. My second year having this small tract. Last year there were some monsters cruising through in first half of January. This year the pigs have recently inundated and all deer activity (as far as cameras go) has ceased. Going to stop feeding except for what’s going in the hog traps. I had more deer last year without corn.
The bag is for steaming. Most chefs use parchment paper. Fill it with all the aromatics and wine and olive oil, seal shut, throw in very hot oven. This is a French method.
Dude mauls slob trout on jerk baits.

Safe Floor will outlast sea dek. I don’t think that’s a controversial position. If you’re in Mandeville you can go to Marsh and Bayou store and they have some cutouts of the material so you can put your hands on the stuff. Or come walk around on my boat.

I have safe floor. I like it a lot for my needs.
PROS: last forever. Traction is great if your slinging a bunch of slimy trout in, etc. It makes everything quieter on the boat. Nice feel on the bare feet. And my favorite attribute is it makes cleaning the inside of your boat optional for the most part.
CONS: like one guy said it isn’t the nicest feeling on your knees. I don’t spend much time on my knees in a boat though so that affects me less than 1% of the time.

Hey JP just wanted to say that in a world where duck hunting YouTube vids has absolutely exploded, you sir are making bar none the best content in that field. Thanks for entertaining us the last few years.
re: What’s your go to protein shake recipe?
Posted by miramon on 10/17/25 at 9:24 pm to bayouvette
Best thing I have found for simplicity and agreeance with metabolism is liquid egg whites. 12 ounces plus a splash of milk makes for about 45 G protein. Take about 7 seconds to make, and tastes exactly like milk.

I had a sizable position (for me) in Mosaic Co. for a year or so. Got in at like $38 rode it down to the mid $20’s then back up to $37 or so and dipped out. Try not to buy the top like me.

Gotta get out of Louisiana to find some actual ducks to put on film.
My tenants travel all the time. Way more than us, by a factor of probably 5. They also habitually cannot afford to pay rent at the end of the month.
