Morning vs Evening Duck Hunts

[everlast]

I'm sure this is one of those questions, but whats your preference? I know that evening hunts are shorter window of opportunity. Beyond that, any pros, cons? With wood ducks, are you risking pushing them out of the area all together, if you are hunting close to their roost in the evenings?

Its easier to leave work early and sneak in for an evening hunt than to go in late, but don't want to screw up my spot.

I'm just saying that to me it's kinda hard to shoot most summerduck holes legally in the afternoon.

I genuinely wish they would ban waterfowl hunting past noon on public water

Yep.....a 1 o'clock cut off would be good for SC.

The days that i have scouted afternoons, and hunted twice, multiple groups have flown consistently beginning about 15 mins prior to sunset. But it never fails that the largest group will fly thru 2 mins after legal shooting time just to taunt.

Started flying about 4p yesterday. ~15 guns?, 37 wood ducks. Watched them come in until dark.

Everlast, I've seen shooting the roost send them elsewhere. Not an absolute though.

Lol. I think everyone should change their name on Facebook to their name on SCDUCKS. I can’t keep track of who’s who. And that has been an entertaining thread.

I glanced at it when it began.. I was thinking about throwing out shell limits. I stopped myself. Some of those people have rape faces.

in the salt marsh, some of the best hunting is midday early afternoon. so to make ANOTHER statute is one issue and the second is what time to end it. 12,1,3,4???? shooting ducks in the marsh at 3pm is a different animal than shooting a roost at sunset

I knew it was a mistake when I started typing the first comment.

No shit Sherlock. Here is an idea maybe let the ducks feed, rest, and not get shot at sun up to sun down. Then public water might actually hold some birds for a decent period of time. But instead it's a state filled with greedy assholes who just gotta fill that strap no matter water. Next time you bitch about duck hunting in SC go find a mirror.
Why do you think states out west cut off at noon or one? Why do private impoundments do the same? Ducks will never stick around if they get shot at sun up to sun down every time they try to eat. It's pretty simple. Your roost comment is cute. You don't know dick about ducks but feel qualified because "it's not a roost shoot bo"
