    Duck Season...found out the hard way.

    Like to hunt our pond in the afternoon if nothing was shoot deer hunting in the morning. Got a wood duck.

    Duck season starts next weekend not this one like it ussly does.
    Found this out when the Game Warden stoped by.

    Got ticket and I am so embarrassed.

        That sucks that you didn't notice the change. I think it's been like this for 2-3 years now.

        As a duck hunter I like the new date structure better. Pushing back the opener a week might give us a better chance for more ducks down by the new opening weekend.

                Why would you like it? You just lose a week of hunting.

                And OP that sucks. I don't hunt north zone but I would have made the same mistake.

                  The total number of days didn't change, just the structure of the splits. Texas allows hunting for max number of days allowed by the Feds.

                    Curious of why you think the number would be better with the week delay?

                      The total number of days didn't change so that's neither better nor worse. They shrunk the time off during the split, giving us a slightly later starting date for first opener. By having a later start we have a better chance of more ducks from colder weather up north (today's high notwithstanding).

                          Somebody was wacking them on the river this morning. Youth weekend so hopefully it was kids. Otherwise somebody else got the dates switched. Things happen. Pay the fine and learn the lesson and move on. We all aren't perfect and have screwed up before.
