Hey y'all I'm new to this whole duck huntin thing, matter fact I ain't ever been duck huntin before, always deer, turkey, and hog hunted. Thing is when I get off the boat Wednesday I gotta go to AR for a few days to visit family so I figured while I was up there I may as well go seein as how I've always heard about duck huntin up there so I booked a trip. I know enough to know the basics of what I need, I'm using a co-workers shotgun, and the outfitter is letting me use a pair of waders, so that brings me up to gun shells, and bags. Sat morning ill be hunting the standing timber so I'm guessing ill be in the water, 1st question is what do y'all use to keep y'all's shells dry? A backpack like I would normally take to my treestand or something different? Also gloves do I need to get a pair of neoprene gloves? Now the big question, ammo, the outfitter suggested #2 for ducks and BB for goose, that's cool I'm good w/ that don't want to guide the guide, but what about brands? I've looked at the black cloud, and some others, also seen some advertised on TV that instead of being round has more of a flat top and bottom according to the commercial allows more to be put in there and holds better groups. I know all these questions prolly sound stupid to y'all but I'd really appreciate any pointed here. Thank y'all
