Back in the 70s NATURAL GRASSES was all that grew in Butler,Retts & Champeny and THE WATERFOWL were THICK, and all but Butler Islands was open Wednesday to Sundays and Butler had Saturday management hunts and had good Numbers All On NATURAL GRASSES.But pressure from the hordes of INTERNET hunters that post on social media sites got every DUCK COMMANDER want to be,s hunting a very small WMA that can not hold duck's from the PRESSURE of being chased 7 days a week, if mommy duck don't migrate back here baby ducks don't return either that's exactly what's happened the duck hunting in Southeast Georgia. And BAD MANAGEMENT DID THE REST....I M O after hunting in coastal Georgia sense 1962 I've seen the fall of what once was a DUCK Mecca to a sightseeing boat ride.Natural grasses in a managed brackish water environment will do just as good or out produce planted crop. That is not the issue. I have not been to this one to see what is going on. But my recommendation would be to contact the manager and have him take you around the property and explain his practices. If this doesn’t please you go to their superiors and ask for a change. But you better have studied what you are talking about so that you can have a valid argument, not a hey I saw a corn pond holding ducks in the mid state or a rice field in Arkansas.
