I subscribe to the theory that while early seasons will give folks an oppportunity to possibly bag more birds on opener...it also drives birds out of the area and creates more problems later in the season. YWD, early goose on water, teal season...it's all the same to me. For most hunters opening day is the best day of the year in terms of birds bagged. Does it matter if it's in October or September as far as recruitment goes? Throw in the amount of other ducks that are gonna get stomped into the mud from mis-identification and I don't see the benefit? Minnesota is a state struggling to hold ducks and this just makes it worse.

So do we have no birds after the split?
Did you people forget the first split? Two days on five off? Teal season would be no different except just for teal. I would be all for a two day teal season in mid Sept and the just start the duck season at the beginning of Oct with no other splits.
