Love watching all your videos. It’s awesome watching you go from small woodie hunts in Virginia and North Carolina to hunting around the country. But still my favorite hunts have got to be the small swamp hole hunts, there’s something special about those. Keep up the good work!
I appreciate it! I was hoping to find some swamp holes up here but the ones I scouted never held birds this season unfortunately. Gonna be back in VA before too long though and should be back in the swamps then!
Talk about an awesome ND pothole!! Got to watch out for that “quick mud” as we call it. Super Congrats on your first band. Lifetime memories. You already know that the Colbys from NM have a spot in our blind with your name on it. 🦆🦆🦆🔥🔥🔥
Congrats on a hunt that dreams are made of!! The genuine excitement when you saw that band was awesome. Mud like that is why mankind developed labrador retrievers, lol.
I'm 60 yrs old, love watching how you utilize the kayak's. Great bird ID prior to shooting. I agree, when you fool mother nature to the coys. It's lunch time. Keep up the good work.
Another AWESOME hunt fellas!!!! Congrats on your 1st piece of leg iron!!!! That spot was DEFINITELY a BANG'R spot! Best of luck on the next one, and God Bless all!!!!!!👍🤗🙏
Hunts are better n better...No jumpshoots...Keep em coming just stay on migration and right in front of storms and you'll keep having Banger's!! Great job on the band..Ive taken thousand birds in my life and only got 2 bands!!! One hen pentail from Pilot Station Alaska,And a Drake Mallard from Washington...All taken in Pacific flyway..
You mentioned to comment if we wanted a state visited. I live in the SF Bay Area (Oakland), CA. I'd love to see you hunt as close as you can. Really good Pacific Flyway shooting. Congrats on the first band! I loved hearing you get stoked👍🏼 Here's to many more.
Thanks Skylar! I don't think I'll make it down to CA this season but it's definitely an area I would like to explore in the future. What kind of birds do you mainly get into over there?
Very cool that it was banded only and hr from me! Congrats on the 1st band. This year was my first seaskn that I've been able to get out the most and experience the most. I just started to hunt the last 2 seasons here in Wisconsin. A lot of things continuously change with set ups it seems like lol. I'll get it down one of these years. I'd say the coolest videos I liked watching are the river kayak hunts. Just floating around, fishing and hunting birds just seems relaxing and fun.
Congrats on the band! That's a beautiful brace of birds. I just want to see more waterfowl. All kinds. Goose hunts, duck hunts, field, marsh, I like it all.
I googled Kayak Duck Hunting and came across one of your river goose jump shooting video and have been following your videos for a couple years. As well as Josh and the Collective. Keep up the great videos.
@@HokeOutdoors yeah it's been so long ago - i can tell you exactly where i was standing when i shot him - a historical place for family duck hunting in NW Iowa - was banded somewhere in Minnesota - unfortunately i've lost track of the the band and certificate - in my parents house - hopefully it will turn up some day! :) he was sneaking through from one lake to another lake, had to cross a narrow area of land between lakes - where i was sitting - nearly sunset - less than tree top high - he caught me by surprise and i got him with a reaction shot rather than seeing him coming and thinking about it - anyway, nice memory!
Great jobs guys, loved it. I grew up in Bottineau County great hunting state. I go back every chance I get. Keep making those duck videos brings me back to my youth.
Love the videos. Haven't gotten out for ducks yet this season, but always wishing I could, but I'm to tied down by school. I'd love to see you come up to Montana. Lots of honkers and mallards here. Anyways great content, and can't wait for more
Congrats on your first band. I shot my first band in Oct 2020 in Iowa. The band was on a bluebill that was banded around San Francisco, CA in 2015. The Stamp-It-Forward project across the board is an awesome mission. I first heard of it through BOSS. Thanks for paying it forward. Good luck on the rest of the season and future hunts.
Awesome, Awesome video Thomas! We get some of that death mud up here in VT too. Congrats on the first band, mine was a solo hunt my first full year and got it on a drake woodie!
Fellow Virginia hunter here, been following you since the old virginia outdoors unlimited days when I found you while searching for virginia duck hunting on youtube in high school! I've always loved the virginia videos because thats the same stuff I do but the small pothole hunts and duck camp videos have been awesome. Keep it up!
Love watching the videos and you have gotten me into more duck hunting. You also have made me start filming my hunts and I have been trying to make some videos. I also can relate to the first band experience its so amazing picking the duck up and seeing the band on the leg. I would love to watch more hunts where you travel and hunt outside of your home state. keep slaying ducks and pumping out the content.
Love the videos man, especially the kayaks. Proves you don't need a fancy duck boat
Thanks brother! It's pretty incredible the amount of places you can get with a kayak
Congrats on the band Missouri later in the year is good for duck and geese.
Congrats on your first banded duck! It’s something you’ll always remember. Keep putting out great content.
Thanks Marc! Gonna try my best to keep it rolling!
Congrats on your first duck band!

Great video! Fun to get the band. Keep up the good content.
Congrats on your band I shot two banded blacks this year in Wisconsin.
I've never had one on a honker or a duck

Loved seeing a DYI ND pothole hunt instead of a field hunt!
I’m happy for you!! You got a very nice mallard drake with a band! Pretty!
I'm 33 and your videos have got me into waterfowl this year. I have been practicing different calls and will be buying a kayak next year!

Hey you should not never be ashamed of water swatting. You did your job to make them land in your spread. Good job on the band too 👏
Talk about an awesome ND pothole!!

Thanks buddy! I'm still hoping I can make it down there this season, unfortunately it's a long drive from either MN or VA
love the geese jump shooting
Congratulations that’s awesome I can’t wait to get after them this winter good luck and God bless 🦆🦆
My favorite channel when it comes to water fowling, not alot of hype or BS, just good old fashioned hunting. Well done!!

Like seeing the river floats. Cool seeing guy not far from the house having a lot of success.
My son and I enjoy watching you guys hunt the marsh areas because that pretty much all we can hunt.

Loved the hunt and a beautiful location to boot. Give thanks to the landowner who was nice enough to allow you two to hunt there.
Awesome! Really cool display of the Greenheads on the old J.D.!
That was the worst mud ever! Great hunt guys and congratulations again on the band.
If there ever was a feel good waterfowl video this is the one!
Still waiting to shoot a band of any kind! As always, GREAT video!!

Great hunt, thanks for sharing! My only band is a wood duck, a 6 year old one or so…got him 25 years ago.
Thanks Dave! That's an awesome bird to get your first band on! What state did you get him in and where was he banded if you don't mind me asking?
