After attending for the last 10 years we finally found one. Lucky duck #13. The prize was a Minn Kota 12 volt 55lb transom mount trolling motor. A Rigid trolling motor led head light and rechargeable flash light. A pair of Zeko shoes. Two quarts of Yamalube and a water separator filter. If you were to pay retail for everything it would be close to 800.00 dollars

Duck #9: GLoomis 7'1" finesse rod, Yamaha oil filter, 2 bottles of Yamaha gas treatment, Go Pro combo cable and a Go Pro Hero 3+! Awesome prizes for finding a rubber duck!

Also caught a live duck duck on a crank bait. Wind blew my line over the top of a large stump so I reeled it in slow and then yanked to flip it over the stump so it wouldn't get hung up. When I flipped it over the top, a duck flew out of the hollowed stump right into the crank bait.

Two hooks in a wing and this duck is flying around the stump getting all wrapped up even worse. We finally got the duck in the boat and got the hooks out and she flew off. More excitement than I wanted while fishing a tournament. Maybe it was a sign I was supposed to find duck #9.

I had the pleasure of fishing with TexBbq, catching the live duck was one of the craziest fishing mishaps I have ever been part of...

Curious if any of you found the duck in front of the 154 bridge. Saw it while fishing.

no ducks, here. Talked to the Army bass anglers and they said they were going to start ant each end of the lake and work towards the dam. Was at 515 bridge at 5:45 waiting for them as instructed along with about a dozen other boats. Waited for 1.5 hours and no boat came or went.

Was not happy, oh well. Think I will put a tracker on their boat next year lol. That is eight years and no duck.

Let me add more info. Everyone was being told to go see the Army bass Anglers for hints on the ducks. I went I asked about the ducks, that is what I was told, so therefore that was the hint I was given.

In regards to the money, it was a good cause, not matter what, money would have been donated regardless of location information. I do that every year.

We also talked to Army bass anglers and donated to a great cause but were then lied to about where they would begin and end. Waited 45 minutes at the 515 east bridge as instructed, no show! We also were not happy campers having giving up the morning bite. We did win one of the unclaimed ducks so all is well, live and learn.
