Here in North Carolina they are restocking mallards every year because the mallard hunting has gone south i think this is a great thing for hunters it means they will have birds to shoot at when they go to the lakes and creeks and such tell me what you guys think.
The ducks they release have Bands on them (NCWaterfowl.org) bands they have been doing it for the past 4 years and i have only killed 2 with the bands one (call SCWA band) and one(NCWaterfowl.org)

And before you say anything about the bands they mean just as much to me as the Federal Bands you guys have i just havent had the luck to get one yet
