C-knocker, PM me with your contact info, and I'll see what I can do to hook you up.
I started the Delta Waterfowl chapter in St.Louis about 5 years ago, and I'm still on that board. I'm also a member of Mississippi Valley Duck Hunters Assoc and active there. I'm sure I can get you hooked up with a few spots to hunt, or you can go with me.
When I migrated to waterfowling from other hunting and fishing pursuits, I met a TON of people just by attending a few waterfowl meetings/events.
Teach your kids to hunt and fish and you won't have to hunt for your kids !!
