duckslayer01 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Well last year I had some great flooded timber to duck hunt. Beavers had damed up a creek and created it. But the dam was broken up and the beavers were relocated so now its dry. I was thinking about getting a tractor back there and digging a decent size hole for the ducks to land on. I'm not really sure about this I'm open to tips hints and ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogdoc Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Is there any way you can move enough dirt and create you own dam where the beaver dam broke down? Sure you could dig a hole and and let the creek flood it. Either way would work. todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duckslayer01 Posted November 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Well we lease a couple pastures for cattle and the treeline of the woods that were flooded runs parallel to the creek and an open pasture we can't dam it back up so I'm relying on rain to fill the hole that I will dig up and I will clear somw trees around it and hopefully the ducks will come.

Jeramie Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Ducks will come but it may take a few years. You'll have to get the right vegeation for them. Also, if youre needing water you could always rent a pump and move water into the new hole. Either that or you could trench from the pond and allow it to fill the new spot.
