Dont forget the livers. They are not too bad
Uh thanks but no.
Don't knock it till you've tried it. There are less than (5) foods that I refuse to eat, and liver is toeing that line.
But the difference between a fatty foie gras liver and regular liver is visibly evident. The taste is entirely different and worth your time to try. It's usually pretty rare to find in a wild TN duck with a fatty liver, but since you're hunting in the heart of rice fields, you're much more likely to find one that's been living the chubby life. The difference is that a foie gras liver will be almost a light pink, versus the standard deep, dark brown.
I MIGHT try one.... maybe.
Be tough to take that first bite though.

We have no ducks in our rice field outside of Jericho, AR. Headed to a guided hunt around Reelfoot and of course outfitter says they're loaded. We'll see.
Went to our blind Sunday to toss out the last of our deke spread. We had birds trying to get in our hole while we were standing in it. That will, of course, change but opening day should be a blast.

I don't know that I've ever been less ready before season… decoys haven't been touched, lease is dry as a bone & I'm leaving middle of the night Friday to go chase quail in Kansas.
We open Turkey day up here & go out the following Monday. I think I'll focus on getting ready for the main show when it comes back in and hopefully we've had some help in terms of water too.

I work with a couple people that live at or near reelfoot and they said the same.
Good luck!

A friend that has a blind on Reelfoot says he only has 6-8" of water in front of his blind on the north end. Not quite as bad as 2012 when he had no water the entire season.
Guides before opening day: WE'RE COVERED UP!!
Guides when you're in the blind: you shoulda been here yesterday
