i recently got a house in mcpherson county in SD and am looking to hit the ducks really hard since i have seen so many during pheasant hunts out there but have no experience at all as to how to hunt them and i live near the lake Long Lake if anyone is familiar to that lake its where i was thinkign to maybe just set up some decoys but am not sure if anyone has some advice i would appreciate it. Also i go out there near novemver 3rd and thanksgiving time.[/align][/align]THANKS[/align]

decoys, call, and a little patience. You will get some! Maybe a call tape to learn the basic calls. A little pre scouting on your part will tell you where to hunt. Good Luck

You live in south dakota and want to hunt waterfowl. If it were me I would be sticking to pheasants, the only reason I hunt waterfowl is cause there arent very many pheasants left in utah. Of course I had the choice between goose hunting in canada or pheasant hunting in south dakota. Funny thing is I took the canada trip. Good luck, How far from kimball, thats where I hunt for pheasants?

Ditto with waders and a dog if you can. Don't forget the most important part, shoot'em in the face!

The decoys depend on the ducks in the area. Match what is around your area and you should be fine.
