Delta in a nutshell: Breeding grounds + small wetlands + big blocks of grass cover + predator removal + nesting structures + enough money to do the job= plenty of ducks to keep everyone smiling!

done. one of my questions is what do they think will happen ? I see it that it will not reduce the number of hunters but only make those dates that non-residence can hunt over crowded to the point where it is almost unhuntable. also, how will the new flooding come into play? can you imagine the first week of the season on the year they let them food naturally and no water being there ,how crowded what little water they have will be like? glad I don't hunt these places any more, I miss it but not worth the hassle.

I'd like to reserve the freedom to go there when the weather is right. If that's right in the middle of one of those blackout dates then that would suck.

Just the devil’s advocate here, but how would y’all feel if Hickory Top’s GTR was one of the best duck hunting areas in the country? Would you be happy that folks flocked here from as far as 600 miles to hunt in our backyards or would you feel a tad like these boys in Arkie do?
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.
I see both sides of the coin. But I ain't an Arkansas resident, and if I want to go to Arkansas in the middle of the night to hunt the next day, I'd like to be able to do that.
How many Arkansas guys go to Charleston to sport fish? Or Myrtle Beach to play golf? Or to Columbia to watch the razorbacks stomp a mud hole in the gamecocks?
I know there's a lot of out of state guys in Arkansas, but there's a lot of in state guys too. Fact of the matter is, there's just plain too many people and not enough resources to go around, especially on the weekend.
Don't get me wrong, I hate it for them that there's lots of people from all over in their backyard. But just cause you don't live in a state don't mean you shouldnt be able to hunt or fish there. Otherwise 95% of us wouldnt ever be able to go on any cool hunts out west, and I'm not just talking about ducks.

Arkansas has been a free for all for a long time as opposed to most other hunting opportunities out west, Ducks or any other game. I think this is going to impact their economy and make things dangerous when they do open the season. Personally I have no plans to step foot on a AR wma again after a few experiences a few years ago. I go to enjoy it, when it becomes a competition and a pain in the ass it is time to find something else.
cut\'em
I haven’t been out there in some years, but did go every year for 12 consecutive seasons.
I can tell you right now, that if I lived in Pine Bluff, and had to deal with the influx of curled brims every single winter, scaring every duck from the Jonesboro to Texarkana, I’d be raising hell at the state house too.
It is their state. Yes this is America, but if it weren’t for out of state folks coming in masses to consume all their wildlife resources, they’d be where they were in the 90s
Who the hell are you to enter a man’s backyard and demand rights to his resources?

I don't duck hunt any more but I still voted to help you guys that do.
Especially when they welcome you with open arms on every farm from the Missouri border to Louisiana, and have provided ample Federal water for all to hunt. Their WMA, their rules. As it should be...
Dick. Answer your PMs, Chief...
It's their state, they can do whatever the heck they want to do with it. Plenty of private and federal land to go hunt.
Be grateful you were able to use it as long and as freely as you have in the past.
