Gadwall
The Gadwall (Mareca strepera) is a medium-sized dabbling duck known for its distinctive and understated beauty, characterized by its greyish-brown plumage, subtle black rear end, and intricate feather patterns that provide excellent camouflage in wetland habitats. Males display a striking black bill and a white speculum, while females are mottled brown, making them adept at blending into their surroundings. When hunting Gadwalls, hunters often appreciate their resilience and wariness, requiring stealth and patience. Effective hunting strategies include setting up near feeding areas in shallow waters, using decoys to attract these ducks, and recognizing their unique feeding behaviors, as they often dabble rather than dive. With their occasional vocalizations and graceful flight patterns, Gadwalls can present a satisfying challenge for waterfowl hunters seeking a rewarding experience in the field.

Our fresh water impoundments have the two ingredients essential for great puddle duck hunting- shallow water and a variety of natural foods.These impoundments provide ducks with high quality natural foods-wild rice, duck weed, smart weed and duck celery. These impoundments are 60-100 acres which means there is plenty of food throughout the gunning season. We also plant some wild rice each spring. These large impoundments are also big enough for birds to loaf on all day long without being disturbed. Also our impoundments are far apart which means we are hunting different bunches of birds to help keep our hunting consistently good.
We like to use hand -carved cork decoys along with GHG decoys because of their realism and larger size. Most of the birds we are hunting travel in small bunches so 2-3 dozen decoys is plenty along with a few mojos when conditions dictate.
We take a large variety of puddle ducks over the course of the season on these large impoundments. In the early season, (Oct -Nov) we mainly take smaller ducks- blue-wing teal, green-wing teal, wood ducks and mallards. In the late season, (Nov-Dec) we take a larger ducks and variety- a few straggler teal and wood ducks but mainly mallards and gadwall and some days pintail, widgeon and shovelers. We also take some Canada geese when conditions are right.
