Been hunting my whole life, but ducks weren't something we hunted in the Ozarks (very few Ducks). 5 Years ago I got transferred to Stuttgart, AR and siezed the moment. My company leased a field right off of Bayou Meto and I spent the entire season taking clients hunting. We had a guy working for us at the time who grew up hunting ducks and he showed me the in's and out's. I've since moved again, but my company retains the duck lease and I've acquired a few more places to hunt ducks. I'd say I was hooked before I ever went, the anticipation was building so much! The best part is, I still take business associates a few times a year so my company reimburses me for any money I spend on gear, clothing, shot, etc. How lucky can a guy be?
