New Waterfowler at Hullett Marsh

Hello,

I'm new to waterfowl and getting a late start on the season. I'm thinking of giving Hullett Marsh a shot, mainly because I don't really know where else to try for this year. I've been to hullett to scout around a couple of time over the last month but I'm not sure of a couple of things. First, the Hullett guide says that stakes 1-9,11,22,27,32,33,42,46,48-50 can be walked in with waders, but I've read some contradictory reports. Can I walk in to some of these stakes with waders? Can I retrieve downed birds with waders if I don't have a dog?

My next question is regarding blinds. What do most use? Some of the stakes seem to be a decent walk from the parking lot. Do you guys that hunt hullett (or other similar areas for that matter) drag out waterfowl blinds like the ones sold at cabela's or do you make due with existing coverage? Any info on this is helpful.

Thanks,
Moro

I don't personally have an answer to the questions you have asked but here is an email address for folks that should be able to help. [email protected]

I haven't hunted Hullett in 10+ years, but whether you can walk to certain stakes or not at Hulllet largely depends on the year's water situation.

I would advise the use of a canoe to hunt the marsh. The areas that already have blinds (they're railway tie blinds) are sufficient for cover and the shooting stakes have natural vegetation which generally hides you better than any man made blind anyway.

I use these with burlap, or use camo cloth, and zip ties, roll it up and put it in my ice fish sled/boat that I put it on my wagon.
