Really like your videos. Not too much hype and it’s not one big brand commercial. You’re just someone that loves duck hunting as much as me and are honest about what works and what doesn’t. I hunt a cypress/tupelo reservoir and the gadwall drake call is a must. Duck Commander also now makes a magnum gadwall call that is much louder - check it out.
Cold Friday thanks so much I appreciate it. I think it’s important to be authentic. Thanks for letting me know about the other gadwall call... I’ll check it out!
That Duck Commander woodie call is legit. I primarily hunt woodies in Alabama. I have used it to call in hundreds over the years. Well the decoys helped too...
I use the Gadwall, Wood duck, and mallard drake when they are near. Most of the time I just have them in my bag and keep them handy if I need them. My mallard call is the Duck Commander Cut Down Reacher. I have others, but this one is my favorite. It takes a little more air, but the sound works for me. Sometimes, with a mallard call, I feel like you have to find one that you can work and work well. Just because someone else sounds really good on it doesn’t mean you will. So I just use what works for me and I can sound as close to a duck as possible. Love the videos, keep ‘em coming. God Bless.
Love the videos. Lots of great information. I'm always wondering if its worth spending the extra cash on the expensive calls. Got a good laugh at 9:34. "You can be blowing a duck call with one hand doing this with another hand." I guess it's one way to keep warm and pass the time on those cold hunts.
Michel Lachaine For me, it’s worth the money for more expensive calls. Yeah, that shaker feed call is certainly a gimmick that I didn’t find very useful. lol
Dc woodduck 90% of are woodducks are shot thx to that. Dc 6 in 1, dc hen teal and mallard calls by Buck Gardner, Zink an old Sure shot. Good vid. Love the information never to old to learn somthing thx.
Not only do I have a teal call and a whistle around my neck. I use two different mallard calls. Loud and soft sounding calls. Love my haydel d85 for long way out calling and a smoke colored duck commander to bring them close. Nice and raspy
When I first got into hunting, we were mostly hunting wood ducks on the bayou... So I started off with a Duck Commander wood duck call. Then being the obsessive overachiever that I am, I bought and learned to blow every type of call I could get my hands on them... The DC gadwall, BWT/GWT call, DC mallard drake, the Haydels T5 call (teal hen/whistle combo), and I just bought the Haydels whistling duck call when it came out a couple of months ago. The mallard hen call was actually the last call that I learned to use.
I got a commander and a haydel and a big river. The commander and big River made the lanyard the haydel was a good call but it was made cheaply and wore out in a season of being banged around. We have woodies on the rivers hear in Colorado.
I definitely use specialty calls. I use a whistle a ton for teal, whistlers and to make a drake call. I've wanted to add a wood duck call to my lanyard for a while now because we get a ton!
I like the primos whistle for here on the coast. Lots of teal and pintails here. With the primos my tongue is still working at the end of the day with the flutter tube doing the work 😂
I use a Duck Commander woody call with great success also a discontinued Big River woodie call. Those two are the best woody calls on the market. I always have a whistle with me also.
I use a teal hen call, I think I may try whistling with it, a lot of times I get the first turn but then they go off, I have also found it’s effective to match decoys to your calling. Teal on teal over teal is extremely effective
I use the mallard drake call you showed at times and also use it for wood duck call and whistle etc but its not on my lanyard leave it on shelf nearby. I only have canada goose call and mallard call and Moohr whistle along with dog whistle on my lanyard. Haven't ever tried gadwall call but have considered it usually gadwall and widgeon work us well with mallard call plus or minus whistle and teal usually use generic whistle though one in our group uses teal call. We generally have no trouble getting teal in either. I definitely think those calls help. The only use I have for the shaker feed call is to give youngsters something to do to feel like they are contributing till they get good enough on other calls but it is great for that as long as the movement is hidden. Enjoy your videos.
I hunt in Central and Southern Florida and at least half of our ducks are blue-winged teal, so I always have a blue-winged teal call along with a mallard hen call and a whistle.
I use a BW teal call early in the season (when the BW's are here), also the Haydel whistle for sprig, baldpates, mallard drakes, and GW teal. The gadwall call is also on my lanyard.
I oscillate between a wood duck call and a mallard drake whistle and rarely use a hen call because it seems to tip mallards better in the Carolina timber for some reason
in the marsh of south Louisiana we use a blue wing teal call that is a little more high pitch, but it definitely works. we also use a whistle that sounds like a greenwing. that same whistle can be used for wooducks, mallard drakes, widgeon, pintails, and tree ducks. that grey duck call is pretty awesome as well in the marsh. teal respond to it as well.
@@ehrengross the wingsetter is my favorite but you can also use one of those haydel whistles. also ine if those little silver squirrel whistles work really well. especially with the fulvous. they have a slightly different note than the black belly.
I use the gadwall, wood duck, and mallard drake from DC. Also have the standard whistle as well. Where i hunt those are borderline lethal in the later season. More often than not mallards will shy from a hen call, at least if that’s all you use because they’ve heard them blow every way and when possible
Good luck with teal hen call. Use drake mallard anytime birds seem spooky or unresponsive to hen call seems to put birds at ease, also great to have novice use cause it's easy to learn and is very effective. Have already done several hunts in the waders I won here. Really like them so far.
I like a 6 in 1 whistle to throw in different sounds or when I see a random flock or single but it keeps from cluttering the lanyard and I like to be as minimal as possible when hunting from the kayak
I have the duck commander wood duck and teal. The wood duck call is insane I’ve called in multiple wood ducks with it and “talked” back and forth with it!!
I use three different hen mallard calls, a high roller, and a three 8n one wistle. I tune a d-2 open water, a Woodford low range, and a buck Gardner double nasty as a finisher and a wood duck call. Then I use the high Roller for pintails, the three in one for female mallard wistles, the low range call for gad walls and feeding chatter. The open water for teal and comeback calls, and the finisher for two quack greetings. However there is a lot of noises that birds make that should be avoided because some species make one set of noises, some make two sets of noises and some make three or four sets of noises, they all respond to basic quacks or peeps on a wistle. Mallards have four sets of noises they have quacks, feeding chuckles, comebacks,and wistles. Teal have four sets they squeek they quack,and they peep and burr. Gad walls quack and squeek, wood ducks squeek, peep, and chirp. And every noise has a reason they do it, some it's to get up off the water, some it's to land some it's to turn, some it's to say there's food, some is to say don't come hear,some is to say wtf are you doing? Etc... until you have called ducks for several years and heard what they do and tried different things it's quite hard to determine how to work some species. After you get all that figured out there is still days they fly by like your not there but there is those times when you're working all the species in your flyway directly into your decoys. So the million dollar question when you are out is had you done nothing would they have done the same thing or if you had of called your head off would they have done something different. The magic of it is when you let go and let God, and you have a hunt where you just try to make it all part of nature decoys look great calls sound good flappers toiling away, the sound of the wind and water, and you spot a flock 1and a 1/2 miles out and throw out a ribbon of half feeds followed by two quacks and they start towards you, get .5 miles out locked on your decoys so you quack twice again. Vier off and pass high on the outside so you feed call and quack they turn a circle over you and break off high right so you hit them with a 5 note comeback and they turn back into the the circle and you hit them with two quacks and they set there wings and scoop the flapper into the space behind your decoys, where you grab your shotgun and yell take email boys and shoot a duck 15 feet in front of the blind. That's when it all starts to make since.
What is a Tupelo Break? Never heard that term before. We get gadwall, green wings and widgeon plenty here in central Texas. I know people that WONT use a mallard hen call at all, and live off the specialty calls.
Matthew Truitt Tupelo is a type of tree that can live in water like cypress. A Tupelo break is a flooded area (like a bayou) that is full of Tupelo trees.
I noticed the gadwall magnum call has a place to insert the whistle just like with the original call but I can’t find a video on it anywhere...very confused
I have a question. First though, let me give you some info about my experience level. I have hunted ducks here and there with friends that are guides and competiotion callers, so i have not really had the need to do anything except show up, help set deeks, and shoot. I can call good enough to kill a few ducks, I know the different sounds, when and why to use them, but im looking into taking my 3sons with hunting so i am in the market to be buying some calls. Some for me, some fir 13year olds. Now the question: lets say we know nothing about calls, and im staring at a rack of them at the local outdoor store. I see acrylic, polycarbonate, wood, single reed, double reed, etc. What would you suggest for calls to fill a lanyard to hunt primarily teal, woodies, mallards, and some divers like buffs or goldeyes? I am in northern mn a few mi south of canada. Hunting river flowages and small weedy bays in larger lakes.
Matt Pierce out of California without a doubt. Matt Lane from the legendary Paul Kingyon before he passed away. I have a couple of Paul's calls that I barely use anymore because they're worth so much but Matt has really gotten it done. These calls her a variety of words but I like the Osage orange cuz that's what Paul used. No brakes in the town you can go from 0 to 60 with out of crack it's like an actual musical instrument.
I have no experience with the Haydel whistle, but I do have the DC whistle and the Sure Shot whistle. Both are great, but I carry the Sure Shot bc it has its own lanyard that I just loop around my big lanyard as to not take up another slot
Teal hen, mallard drake, woodie. Mallard drake is very effective when you learn when to blow it. Even in high wind. Timber holes is the best and fields use other calls.
Give me a pintail/wigeon/teal call and a gadwall call over a mallard! I use my mallard call more for making gutteral sounds to mimic redheads, scaup and brant.
Do you have any footage of Mallards feeding and doing the feed calls? Im brand new to duck hunting, and theres piles of guys out there giving instructions. Ive been watching alot of your content and I can tell you know our stuff, because you kill alot lol. but i havent been able to find videos of just ducks on the water making these greeting and feed calls so i can really try to mimick..
I just got this echo poly timber call and it dosent sound raspy enough and my feeder call is trash u got any budget echo calls you can suggest under 90 dollars btw i live in Arkansas where the ducks are shook up
you might try a different reed. A longer reed makes it raspier. If you get some blank reeds, cut them exactly like the original reed- except about 1/8 of an inch longer... try blowing and then keep trimming it (just a hair at a time). That may be a cheaper fix. Otherwise, try an echo timber in wood... I really like the Echo pure meat call... it's more expensive though. Final suggestion, since you are in Arkansas, you may consider a trip to Echo's shop... they can really dial you in!
Yea 😂 I shouldered my gun once at a pack of caddy’s and shot and snapped it in half I think it sounds better now and it’s a lot louder this way and you can change the noise
@@SurvivingDuckSeason it just seems awfully cheesy with the intensely deep narrative voice, again I am sorry to complain but yalls content is still great and I will continue to watch even if you dont change it. 👍
The only thing I call is teal during teal season. The reason being everybody and there 8th cousin has called ducks. I live in Florida so ducks do not respond well to them.
No need for anything but a realistic Mallard call where I hunt. I hear guys say the ducks are Call Shy I say bs ducks are shy from poor callers. I have been calling for 57 years and still run( practice) my calling 2 or 3 times a week ALL year long. Practice practice and more practice. If you find a good sounding call stick with it. Oh practice and practice some more. If you can find a spot and listen to those live wild Mallard hens. Sound like them. Oh did I mention to practice. Good hunting 👍 Mallard Mike.
Ahhh yes the good ole Primos shaker.....a guy we used to hunt with broke one out one morning and the next thing you heard was the entire blind (3 of us non shaker users) braying like a trio of Donkeys. He threw us a few choice words and back in his blind bag the shaker went....Never to be seen again
If you use a gadwall call properly they are very effective, you sir do not use it correctly but that’s ok. I’ve found they work better to call them in after they have already hit the water
Do you use specialty type calls? Let me know what kind!
Surviving Duck Season,
Duck commander: Jade Robertson Pro Series in TigerWood.
I like a 6 in one whistle too....
6 in 1 is a cheap and very effective tool. The mallard drake and pintail calls are very effective for me.

The gadwall call works for me a lot. On public land when everyone is screaming their mallard hen calls, give them something different with the gaddy 😉
Sometimes being different than everyone else is all it takes! Thanks for watching.
That Duck Commander woodie call is legit. I primarily hunt woodies in Alabama. I have used it to call in hundreds over the years. Well the decoys helped too...
I love using the gadwall call, the 6in1 whistle, and the mallard drake call.
Olt whistle found it on the refuge when I was still a kid. It pre 60s. Best sounding whistle ever.
Got the black one Also
Olt 66 and ivereon ceramic call morello sprig whistle that’s all you need .. love my woods

I'm in Iowa and I love wood ducks calling and putting them in the decoys all on public waters awesome videos
Exact same thoughts and location word for word
what specific wood duck call do you use? I've had great luck with flextone's but it has problems with sticking
Duck commander but be it has its flaws or its the operator lol
@@joemathews4590 6in 1 can produce a good sound
I got a commander and a haydel and a big river. The commander and big River made the lanyard the haydel was a good call but it was made cheaply and wore out in a season of being banged around. We have woodies on the rivers hear in Colorado.
One of my buddies Can’t blow a standard mallard call to save his life. But he blows that dc drake call like a pro
I definitely use specialty calls. I use a whistle a ton for teal, whistlers and to make a drake call. I've wanted to add a wood duck call to my lanyard for a while now because we get a ton!
That was some good woody calling!

2 call I use the most is a widgon pintail whistle
just shot tree mallards yesterday over some salt water while using a teal call and a pintail whistle.
I use a couple mallard hen calls and a wood duck call
I've never needed a mallard drake call, i can do that one with my hands and mouth :)
I use drake mallard call and a 6 in one whistle and I’ve had some success with both
Duck Commander or Haydel Wigeon/Pintail whistle and why one is better than the other in your opinion.
I have no experience with the Haydel whistle, but I do have the DC whistle and the Sure Shot whistle. Both are great, but I carry the Sure Shot bc it has its own lanyard that I just loop around my big lanyard as to not take up another slot

The wood ducks in my area aren’t coming in unless that’s where they were headed when they left the roost
The call you described that your Uncle gave you was most likely a Scotch Call... I have 4 o' 'em... They are my favourite secondary call...
Yep, that’s it!

I say bs ducks are shy from poor callers. I have been calling for 57 years and still run( practice) my calling 2 or 3 times a week ALL year long. Practice practice and more practice. If you find a good sounding call stick with it. Oh practice and practice some more. If you can find a spot and listen to those live wild Mallard hens. Sound like them.
Oh did I mention to practice. Good hunting 👍 Mallard Mike.
Teal hen and 6 in 1
Whistle and wooduck
Ahhh yes the good ole Primos shaker.....a guy we used to hunt with broke one out one morning and the next thing you heard was the entire blind (3 of us non shaker users) braying like a trio of Donkeys. He threw us a few choice words and back in his blind bag the shaker went....Never to be seen again
HAHA great story!
my brother uses it while my dad screams the primos green mallard call. no complaints when you limit out!

Wood Duck, Teal, Gadwall
Wigeon/ Pintail whistle

If you use a gadwall call properly they are very effective, you sir do not use it correctly but that’s ok.
I’ve found they work better to call them in after they have already hit the water
