Reelfoot Lake Duck Hunt NOT as Promised

Theoutfittertold usthat we would be hunting in his famous "Taj Mahal" duck blind on Reelfoot Lake. We did not get to hunt that blind.instead, we were assigned to a blind that is NEVER even mentioned on the website. The water level in Reelfoot Lake was 4 feet below normal (it had been since May/June but we were never warned of that). The blind we were assigned had about 1/4 acre of open water. The rest of the area surrounding the blind was frozen over mud flats.instead of the 1000 decoys that is advertised and pictured on the website, we had 3 dozen floaters in the little pocket of open water and about5 dozen more frozen in the ice and covered with snow. The guide we were assigned told us not to shoot ducks that would fall on the ice covered mud, because he could not retrieve them. This made the shooting very limited. The party of hunters that actually hunted the Taj Mahal had way more shooting than we did. They were repeat customers.

We killed one duck the first day (only shot at two) and 12 the second day. Their were seven of us in the blind.

I have been duck hunting for 45 years, and certainly understand that nobody can guarantee you'll get shooting. But, I feel we were not given the service that was advertised.
