I would agree with what the others have said but I would also add that If your going out there and not getting any birds then change things. either change your spot or your spread or something. If everyone around you is getting them then figure out why. Also When I' m hunting I don' t go to the same spot everytime and do the same thing. They will pick up on that and change, you have to be one step ahead. Find the pockets that no one else hunts, Try more/less decoys, different terain. Good luck and welcome to the club..... ohh remember most places last day of season is better than the first, so don' t give up!!!
