Settles Ford Wetlands Blind 1

Blind 1

Pictured after the season and after a heavy rain.

Overlooking 20 acres of flooded bean stubble on the South Grand River Flyway a historic market hunting and micro flyway on the Osage Watershed the largest of the three sub-basins that make up the lower Missouri River basin.

The average water depth is 12 to 24 inches. The blind is accessible without waders, but waders are required to place decoys and retrieve game.

The Settles Ford Refuge is less than 200 yards to the south of the blind 1, which attracts thousands of ducks and geese migrating south during the fall and winter months.

There are many small acreage duck clubs in this area closely spaced to each other and compete for the same ducks. This lease is in an area void of other clubs with very little surrounding competition. This was achieved by our building wetlands with levees on what is otherwise a dry land area north of the refuge.
