Comments: The migration is here. Thousands of mallards flying through. All fields are covered in a foot of snow so ducks are feeding in standing corn. Have never seen this before.

You can't take everything you read as truth. Could have just been written to throw off the internet scouters.

Personally witnessed it from my layout blind, saw thousands heading South, and located a goose feed in excess of a mile long and by estimation 50-75,000 birds in it. The most birds I have ever seen in my life. Now I hope there are some left to pound in the fields as most water is locking up. Heading down to 2 degrees tonight and -10 degrees tomorrow.

I've heard them called boot lips before, I'm sure that's what he means.

I really don't have a problem with em honestly.
Most places I kill em they taste just like the rest of the ducks we kill.

I pass on them unless times are hard though
