I had the opportunity to get after a decent variety of divers this season, and I have to say my favorite are Goldeneyes, I love how they will readily decoy to 6 goldeneye dekes and I just love how they come in. What's everyone's favorite?

Late season I hunt divers in Northern Minnesota.

Typically, the bluebils come through with the redheads.

There are days when it is thick with both of them. 

I would have to say these are my two favorites!

You hit a soft spot for me with this diver stuff..lol. It differs from year to year what kind of birds we get a lot of down here and when. This year we got a lot of ringnecks for some reason. My favorite would have to be Buffleheads and Canvasbacks. Buffies are just plain fun to shoot while Cans are a huge challenge and are a TOUGH bird!! Typically, when diver hunting, I like a variety and shoot whatever comes in. My display picture is a 2 man limit of 11 buffies and a redhead..from 2 seasons ago.

Too bad you can't hunt canvasbacks in Iowa anymore!! Hopefully they change it.

Buffleheads and Goldeneyes.

God, favorite diver would be tough, its between a canvasback and a goldeneye, i love shooting both, now for sea ducks my favorite bird has got to be oldsquaws, love chasin them thangs

Hopefully we can change to allow greater Canvasback numbers!
