There is a total of about 15 acres of water on this 100 acre property. There is a 3 acre lake with a spillway that feeds the larger 10 acre lake. There are also 4 other small tanks that surround the two larger tanks that do hold ducks, and can work well for those who enjoy jumping smaller tanks.
Most hunters will probably want to set up in the blind on the East side of the largest lake, on the west side of the lake near to to road, or on the point at the NW corner of the lake. The blind can be in up to two feet of water depending on lake level, so waders are required if hunting from the blind.
This lake has a gradual slope and shallow water near the edges, which makes setting out and picking up decoys a breeze. There are cattails along most of the East side of the lake, which are great for concealing hunters. There is a large amount of aquatic vegetation, which keeps the ducks happy.

Saw only two birds all morning. One about 7am the flew right down the middle of the lake. The second one, about 30 minutes later, decoyed perfectly and kept us from being shut out.
