I’ve hunted the fall blue wings for years and have rarely cooked any that I could say were good eating.
It’s just their diet that time of year.
Kill em in winter and they taste just fine.
Personally I believe we should have more opportunities with them in the fall.
Many years they are the most numerous duck on this continent, and birds killed during September and our regular season total to nearly nothing in comparison to our neighbors to the south.
I’d love a full September season just for them.
Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.
