I admit I was only a part time duck hunter even when lead was still legal for them....would rather chase ditch chickens...ducks/geese are only a diversion but an enjoyable one.... with my nice older guns I use one of the soft nontox shots available at 40 to 50 for a box of 10....usually jump shooting walking along a creek....or my BPS with steel for geese and pass shooting....don't decoy any more just to much junk to carry in and out....but I do miss that marsh smell early in the morning, putting out the dekes with the old rubber chest waders on....and the smell of a hot cup of coffee out of the thermos as you settled in listening for wings in the dark....
