Long Read but well written explanation of Louisianans frustration

[nitro5x6's]

Mallards have always been thick around Detroit, thanks to the Indians across the bay legally dumping corn on Walpole...

I might could be talked into a return trip to Walpole Island.... to shoot Canvasbacks.

I had a layover in Detroit 30 years ago and my brother paid for that Injun corn pouring nonsense....didn't even put out a decoy. First and last "guided" trip I've ever been on. LOL

Dump was there then. Guessing he's probably a spirit in the sky now.

He came and hunted with me in the swamp. Good times...

There always seems to be some level of suburban ducks that hang tight up there.

You reckon he's still alive? Last I saw him was over 30 years ago.

Remember back on my first ever trip to Canada was Walpole Island and sitting there enjoying the sunrise as it’s just getting light and couldn’t believe that I thought I was seeing corn right in the damn hole. Then I got nervous as hell. Then asked the guide about it. “ oh yeah, you get to feed yur ducks if you want them to come to the hole ehhh “ HOLEEFUCK. Then I learned about the Rez and the fact that they can do whatever the hell they want. Bogster how would we explain one of the best places that holds ducks in Arkansas consistently for the past 20 years near Searcy when there is high water, no water or whatever is only moist soil managed. Zero corn nor any other planting there. And when it locks down they’ll stay there holding the water open. Is the corn causing that too?

It would have been around that same time, so I couldn't say. Everyone from SC who went up there would tell him all about Santee this and Santee that, so he decided he had to come see what swamp hunting was about. An outfitter contacted me and asked me to take him. He invited me to come up there anytime, but I never did...

I can’t speak for that place, I don’t know a thing about it.
But imprinting is real.
