Do we get the smarter ducks?
I live in Mississippi. I have only been duck hunting for one year. I killed four Scaup. I have realized duck hunting is very hard. I have a question though. Do the stupid ducks get shot on the way down leaving the smarter ducks for us Mississippians to shoot. I am probably one of the last people shooting the ducks as they make their way down south considering I live on the beach.

Yeah, they're smarter when they get down here.
All the dumb ones are dead...
You would be harder to kill if people had been shooting at you for months too...I guarantee it!

I think that ducks only have to get "educated" a time or two then they get leery of sets and calling, i try to hunt in more out of the way places to avoid getting ignored so much by birds, also it is more important to be where the birds wanna be once they have been pressured.
