Kansas Duck Hunting
Duck Hunter Feedback
Jon,
Photos from a productive pond duck hunt that was discovered while Scouting for deer and turkey. Opening weekend in Missouri we saw a lot of ducks and enjoyed a lot of shooting. This weekend was fantastic. Two days hunting yielded limits of ducks for the three of us. Your management of the properties of this club keep it an outstanding organization that offer quality opportunities to its members. Thanks a lot for all you and your staff do.

Have a look at our Missouri wetlands waterfowl hunts.
Kansas duck hunting within Mid-America Hunting Association is less than our Missouri waterfowl hunts.
The Association does not maintain any managed wetlands in Kansas and most that waterfowl hunt the Association Kansas lands do so from farm ponds and field sets. However, when it comes to waterfowl even our Missouri farm ponds seem to outperform that of Kansas.
The most widely stated comments about Kansas pond duck hunting is the duck hunt is the day before driving around and scouting. Ducks using ponds will do so for long periods of time making the next day more of a duck shoot than a hunt.
We have also heard from some of the more season long duck hunters that ducks seen on ponds are in the hundreds rather than the thousands as on our Missouri wetlands. These duck also seem more willing to be worked with call and decoy.
Within Mid-America Hunting Association we do not manage pond duck hunts in the same manner as our wetlands. In the case of the ponds the hunter would reserve a "unit" of land that may have several ponds for two days. The first day is to scout and the second day is for the hunt.
We do not post blinds on the pond and they typically have deep water requiring dog or small boat light weight enough to be hand dragged from truck at road to the pond.
Kansas Pond Duck Hunt
Early season ducks over a Kansas farm pond. What we call farm ponds out this way traveling hunters from suburban areas have called lakes when calling in their reservations. Typically a farm pond is under a couple acres in surface water. lakes out on Association land are Watershed Lakes and range up to 30 acres in surface water with most around 10 or so.
