How to hunt wild ducks
Decoys are the most common method of hunting wild ducks. Live decoys are the best way to hunt wild ducks. They should be placed at a distance away from your blind, so you can view them from afar. Windy conditions are a bad time to hunt as the birds can quickly disappear. A few hunters might be too much for some birds.
It is important to know how many wild ducks you wish to hunt. If you don’t know which type of bird your shooting is, you should not shoot. Be sure to have enough ammunition for as many birds and as many shots as you need.
If you do end up killing a lot of birds, you'll want to clean and prepare the meat before eating. Because the meat dries quickly once it is cooked, it's best to prepare it immediately. Remove any bones or feathers from the meat once it is done.
Wild ducks often live near water, but they can sometimes be seen flying through fields of woods or swamps. They are often low-flying, making them easier targets. If you're hunting wild ducks, it is important to remain hidden until you are close enough that you can make a shot. It means that you should remain quiet while waiting to get a shot.
