Texas Traditions - Best Duck Hunting
Hunting is an incredibly popular activity in Texas. The diversity of wildlife and terrain means that there's sport to attract every variety of hunter. Because of its southern location and lake-filled topography, duck hunting here is big. Everywhere from central to south Texas, hunters can take on Mallards, Pintails, Redheads, and Puddle ducks.
Like most states, Texas calls for a hunting license with a "Migratory Game Bird" stamp to hunt ducks. These aren't tough to get, but they can be expensive for out-of-state hunters. There is also a daily restriction on the amount and type of duck you can hunt, and getting a blind set up can require some time as well.
Out-of-state hunters stand the best likelihood of success by pairing up with a local Sportsman's Club and obtaining a Hunting Package. In most cases, the lodges will be fixed up with eating and sleeping accommodations, arranged hunting locations with blinds and dogs, and many will dress and store your kill for your trip back home. They will also help you get set up with the necessary licenses and permits you may need. Some of the packages may appear pricey, but when you look at everything the club does for you to come and get pleasure from your duck hunt, they are in fact very reasonable in price.
