A Ducks Unlimited Guide to Hunting Diving Ducks & Sea Ducks

A Ducks Unlimited Guide to Hunting Diving Ducks & Sea Ducks by Kramer, Gary. Hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781932052107.

Hunting diving ducks (and sea ducks) is considered by many to be the most challenging form of waterfowling. In most cases, duck hunters must brave big rough water and freezing temperatures in pursuit of hardy, fast-flying birds that can elude even the best wingshooters. Yet the sport continues to draw legions of avid waterfowlers anxious to test their mettle against the elements and the birds. This is the first how-to guide devoted exclusively to hunting diving ducks such as canvasbacks, redheads, and greater and lesser scaup, and sea ducks such as bufflehead, scoters, and eider. Like its companion volume, A Ducks Unlimited Guide to Hunting Dabblers, this new book will prove an invaluable resource for both novice and veteran waterfowlers. No other book has ever offered as much complete and in-depth information on how to hunt these big-water ducks, including: · Methods for hunting divers over decoys in rivers, big lakes, reservoirs, and ocean coastal areas. · Tactics for pass-shooting and hunting in layout boats and shore blinds. · Boats and other specialized equipment needed to pursue diving ducks. · Tactics for hunting early and late in the season. · How to scout and locate the best hunting spots. · And much, much more.
