Gunning for Sea Ducks introduces you to a practically untouched arena of waterfowling--birds that provide fast, challenging shooting, and, after it's over, delectable eating. Containing a vast amount of information that's been virtually ignored up until now, the book goes into detail about the birds themselves, where they may be found, what type of shooting equipment to use, how to lay out decoys, and, finally, how to prepare the birds for delightful dining. If you thought the world of gunning for waterfowl was about to disappear into the past, here is the answer for the future.
A good book about hunting sea ducks, I enjoyed the chapter on how to cook them which could also apply to other duck species. The one thing to keep in mind is that the book is 1988 material, hence the comments made about lead shot which was still legal in many parts of the U.S. around that time. The book does a good job in describing the main sea duck species, their habitats and wintering areas.
