Hey everyone. Just wondering if people are seeing any redheads or bluebill up in the Panhandle. Went out last weekend and only saw a few dozen Buff's and Merg's in Perdido Bay/River.
I'm not seeing any birds around bay either and I am actually not bull ****ting. There are just not a lot of birds around. Not complaining because I've killed plenty this season just lulling right now.
Chill out dude, he posted his own spot, wasn't asking for yours. Good luck to you though and thank for informative post...I wrote your rules down, so I don't forget.
To the OP. Seems like the birds have left for the time being. Saw a good # of redheads and bluebill about a week and a half ago. Hunted out of town last weekend, so I can't say, but went today and got skunked for the first time in my life. Did not see a single group flying, even in the bino's. Thought today would be solid after that front rolled thru..

I literally only come on this site to look at the comments from people ripping apart someone for asking questions lol. you people Crack me up, the man was simply asking if anyone else had seen any birds. you act like shooting gulf Coast divers is some well kept secret and that it's hard to shoot them when they are here.
Yeah, because any big water on the panhandle is a well kept secret right? Especially that giant bay to the west of P-Cola that I-10 flows over...nobody would ever think to hunt that... your secret is safe.
I don't care how big the body of water is its a matter of common courtesy not to plaster it all over the Internet and if you had to deal with these morons screwing everything up like we do than you might feel the same way but with the state spraying everything in the fresh it has condensed everyone into small specific spots.
I will add I have checked out 3 new areas this year I had previously thought about but kept reading chatter on. I hunted 1 of them with success. These areas weren't secrets but I gathered enough online information to make the 2-2.5 hrs drive north worth it.
Such animosity so close to Saturnalia! Tsk Tsk! At least Chris K didn't threaten to pepper my boat...yet. I'm hunting this afternoon. I will let you all know if I see anything worthwhile.

I hunt nearby you. You didn't post anything specific, but had you said the area was hot, rest assured guys around you would flood that river. With that said, aside from divers, this is probably the worst area in Florida to hunt. I get kinda remote, so I hardly see hunters unless I head diver hunting. Most of the guys bitching live in areas with a much larger migration of birds, thus much more hunting pressure.
I'll dm you with a report after I head out tomorrow.
I'm closer to Destin this week. Haven't seen nearly as many birds around as I did this time last year and the year before. Hunted the past couple years with some luck, but not really interested this year.

Went out last Thursday and "goog"ed around a different spot on somewhere between Pensacola and Destin (vague enough?!) Still nothing but large numbers of Buff's and Mergs.
If I observed decent birds I would not be on the interwebs asking or telling where they are, I'd have my hands on a shotgun and not a keyboard!

Sad to hear. I took the year off to work on the house and few other things but the reports I've got from friends i wish i hadn't, sounds like they are having a great year. Hopefully you find them, they have been hunting some giant lake that begins with an O but it is a seceret so i can't be more specific. Sorry....
