Launch at Nails Creek and run into the flooded stuff near flag pond if you have a boat. If not, walk in area in the WMA could be productive but havent been back there in 7-8 years

I haven't been over to Nails creek specifically but the lake is very low and reports are flag pond doesn't have much water. Did hear from some guys who had a decent hunt on WMA ponds earlier this season.

c'mon guys … no need to jump on a fellow duck hunter and Aggie. It's public land. I would be willing to tell him everything I know, if I knew that area. Good luck Aggie Ranger! Hope you find them and get I to them or at least have a memorable adventure.Aggieranger said:NiceAg67 said:

Go and scout it yourself! they were nice enough to give you the general location and now you want a specific PIN? Nest you're going to ask to hunt somebody's Blind?
Ringnecks are a pain in the arse to clean, but they eat great.maroonblood90 said:
That's a great looking string. We got into Widgeons and Ringmecks last weekend in Mason County.

Looks like some really cold weather is hitting up north. Just checked Omaha, NE and they will have a low in the single digits the next several days. OKC is getting down into the teens tomorrow. Hopefully we will see a big push of birds over the next few days to close out the season. That obviously doesn't give us a bunch of time, but it is what it is.

I don't know if it's even feasible under federal regulations but trip98 and I and our boys have hunted together for 10+ years now and one of the things we've discussed helping down here is having the season start later and run longer.
Like, instead of having a first split for big ducks, closing for 2 weeks, and then re-opening is to maybe have the season not start until the week of Thanksgiving or maybe even the first weekend after and instead of closing at the end of January'ish maybe run until the middle of February. That gives more time for winter to really set in up north and push the birds farther south to us.
And, I think we (and most hunters) would probably be good with a 4-bird limit instead of 6. I'm also not convinced that a 3-bird limit on pintails is needed in Texas. Out of the big ducks we probably see more pintails south of 10 than anything else except maybe spoonies.
