Thanks for watching! Let me know what you think about flooded timber duck hunting!

I do all of my hunting in Arkansas! I love the flooded timber and it has always been my favorite way to hunt. My first duck hunt was in the woods and it was a blast. Bein from Arkansas I am blessed with the places I can hunt and the amount I can hunt for sure.

Loved the video as always Joel. Up in VT, we don't really have too much flooded timber. Mostly lakes, ponds and fields. This tutorial was awesome. I sit here with my call and practice every week! Can't wait for the next one.

Thanks again for the great video and tips on getting wings locked! There's a decent tract of flooded timber near me in southern Illinois named Oakwood Bottoms (~5, 000 acres) that is managed by the USFS and DU. I've had some great hunts out there and I would like to pass on what I've learned for that area that might apply to areas your viewers are in. They have man made timber holes that are published on a map published every year, which are great on the opener and good flight days, but also get all of the pressure and get shot out quick. When birds are stale I'll look for an area that has one or two trees down and a small gap in the canopy, and if there are birds there, you can bet I'll be there in the morning. Nothing beats Mallards slapping their wings on limbs coming into your spread. Again great video Joel and I hope my bit of advice helps your viewers as well!

I’ve hunted Ar Bayou Meto for 40 years. This video is spot on for calling in “real” flooded timber! I would love to meet you one day! I have a duck cabin at Bayou Meto, we would love to have you down!

I’ve never hunted flooded timber.
I first got into duck hunting in 2014 while stationed here in Colorado. High country desert territory with man made dammed lakes with few rivers that are more like creeks. The one area I’ve found for flooded timber is in Pueblo, CO on the dammed Arkansas river which is flooded in the spring with tons of ducks. By time the September teal season rolls around, they’ve let the water out to flow to Kansas. I would love to hunt flooded timber for woodies and green heads. I do travel to Wyoming and Kansas, but need to find those flooded timber spots for the experience.
Thanks for the great calling tips and wonderful content. Love the channel!

nothing better than hunting flooded timber. believe it or not, Missouri does have some places to go. I do want to get down to Stuttgart, someday.

I have never hunted flooded
Timer. Definitely on my bucket list

[jimkeithley]

Certainly want to do a flooded timber duck hunt it’s on the bucket list!!! We hunt timber wood ducks here in Wisconsin. Fast and good action and great tasting ducks.

If I remember correctly first time I hunted flooded timber, a guy who was use to hunting saltwater marshes, it was opening day of our short October season. My hunting partner and I limited out 28 minutes after the start of legal shoot time. Seeing ducks coming through the trees is impressive but seeing geese do it is mind blowing.

Probably 80% of my duck hunting has been done in the timber. I love watching a greenhead circle the river bottom, low over over the trees, then he will be back in about 45 seconds. I have hunted a long time, but the sound of a mallard drake calling right over my shoulder still gets me excited!!!

[kanegraham]

I would love to try hunting in flooded timber as I I live in New Zealand and we dont have any thing like that here it has been on my bucket list for years to do a hunting trip in the U.S.

[jeffhoose]

That's one of my bucket list hunts. Just once I'd love to see green heads weave in and out of the timber

[mikeries]

I started timber hunting at oakwood bottoms in Southern Illinois in 1975.
It's addictive.

I’ve never been on a flooded timber hunt. I just got back into duck hunting last year after I bought and trained my own pup which I’m extremely happy with. I’ve worked very hard training almost everyday training him. He’s amazing. My dream is to take my 27 year old son on his first ever duck hunt with my dog and have it turn into something we can do together for the rest of my life. Your videos inspire my and teach me a lot. Thanks so much!

[hankandrews]

Great video! I love to hear those calling sounds.

[jeremynewsom]

I hunt public flooded timber 40 days out of the 60 day season in arkansas it is by far the best hunting known to man. There is absolutely nothing like watching huge volleys of greenheads falling down in your face in the timber! Great video. I feel like you should make a video to help the new comers on decoy tactics in the timber.

[micahlowbe]

Very informative. I needed to know this. I’ve only hunted fields.
