Hello Hunters,
With the recent rainfall, many of us now have our duck holes full of water. Now the question comes, can we keep this water in our holes without it leaking through our culvert. Many people have this kind of trouble. It takes a lot of work to keep our holes properly filled. The way I see it done many times with sucess is by placing the correct length, treated 2x4 boards. Put your bottom board in the culvert and push mud all around the edges and bottom. It also does not hurt to put a tarp under this board to help hold the water. After the first board is in place the boards in the culvert until you get the boards the height you want the water to be. Pull the tarp back through the boards and let the excess hang over the front of your boards and put a few shovel fulls of mud on the bottom of the excess tarp. By doing this correctly you should not have water leaking out of your hole and possibly have no water for your ducks to land in.
Good Hunting,
