How To Plant a DUCK HUNTING Impoundment Food Plot. Is it LEGAL?

We planted our 2 acre duck hunting impoundment. We used a mixture of crops and native species to increase the duck use days. For planting we used a mixture of brown top millet, sorghum, sunflowers, and corn.

Good stuff! Never tried Sunflowers for ducks, only for Doves (and Deer by accident). Excited to see how his this turns out for you. Just finished planting our third property in rice/millet.

Sounds like a 12x24 blind would be good there too. I got power tools

What is the difference between food plots and baiting? If you plant with the absolute intention to not Harvest the crop to attract wildlife is that not basically the same as dumping 50lb bags of corn? This is a legal loophole that has been exploited by elite duckclubs for years. Wildlife doesn’t belong to us as hunters. They don’t belong to anyone period thus keeping wildlife well wild. Hunters are a funny group in General. Our numbers are dwindling, politicians are absolutely agianst us in every way yet we do all we can to keep the sport as exclusive as can be. People don’t hunt because the opportunities aren’t there for them to enjoy the sport. Private clubs, private impoundments have absolutely destroyed waterfowl hunting in areas of the United States. I love capitalism buy all the land you can afford to buy. Why people feel the need to bait wildlife, to horde what in no means belongs to them is beyond me.
