Settles Ford Wetlands Blind 2

Blind # 2

A view of blind #2 in the distance facing the west overlooking 20 acres of flooded crop stubble on the South Grand River Flyway. The year this picture was taken the crop was beans and is flooded to 24" +/- 12".

Beans are the preferred crop to flood as they produce very little residue allowing plenty of water surface to show. Corn is often the most preferred crop for most duck hunters and after flooding a good wind will blow the residue to the shore and show open water. Milo makes for a good medium vegetation with less residue than corn and more stubble than beans. We encourage the crop that serves us the best.

From inside the blind looking out after the first flight on an overcast day. The blind Faces west with a 180 degree view from north to south. This is the water to the west of the blind and there is also water to the east across the narrow Levee the blind is posted on.
