First Solo KAYAK DUCK HUNT This Season (Texas Public Land)

On this kayak duck hunt I headed out to a public land lake here in Texas for my first solo hunt of the 2020 waterfowl season. I had been looking forward to trying out the Old Town Discovery 119 with my new kayak blind and I wasn't disappointed as a I found a beautiful cove that was full of ducks and perfect for the weather conditions I had. My shooting wasn't the best but I was still able to end up with a mixed bag of mallards and pintail and had an absolute blast out there. Hope y'all enjoy and be sure to subscribe if you do!

Great solo hunt. I appreciate that you are a true sportsman. Knowledgeable, well equipped and not out to slaughter whatever moves. Really enjoyed watching the birds come in. I appreciate the whole experience you shared. Brings back memories. Take care and stay safe!

Nice work Thomas. So compared to a typical Va. morning what’s your initial thoughts on TX. Is south the way to go because of more resident birds plus migrators or is it the flyway? East and west?

@HokeOutdoors 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks Jacob! I definitely just think it’s a flyway and area thing. The central flyway has at least 10x the amount of birds compared to the Atlantic if not more. Also pressure is just so much lower out here that birds are able to stack up in an area without getting blown out. I would almost never try and setup after shooting light in VA but with just so many birds out here I was confident I’d have some opportunities mid morning

Old Town Discovery 119 comes up as a "Canoe". Is there more to the discription? I am looking for something to hunt like you did out of.

Here is a link to the Discovery 119. It is listed as a canoe but I consider it more of a canoe/kayak hybrid due to the single seat layout oldtowncanoe.johnsonoutdoors.com/canoes/fishing/discovery-119-solo-sportsman

If you don’t mind me asking where about was this on Caddo, I’m looking to trying out caddo with my Hobie this year but other than the bigger side of the lake I don’t know the area too well.
