On the Pacific and Rocky mountain flyway they have a big gamey taste.....even after they eat rice for a month. I've eaten lots of them but never one that was a good table duck. Maybe where you are it is different. Pete Originally Posted by Flipper 56 x2 I think they taste nasty!! Not sure! They sure taste good here on the Delmarva Peninsula. Maybe it’s just a matter of taste and I like them, maybe they eat something different here. Be a mentor You don't rise to the occasion, you fall to the level of your training. Semper Paratus

You left out pintails!!! Dang, how does a greenwing beat our a pintail, or a widgeon even? #disappointed I don't disagree drake pinnies are gorgeous. I do think they are overhyped slightly. I do also this fully plumed drake wigeon are beautiful birds. I just don't get very many of either of the two.
