When Lake Eufaula, Blackshear and Albany peaks

DuckCast’s season model puts the wood duck peak here around early December. Lake Eufaula, Blackshear and Albany carries its own season curve rather than sharing Georgia's statewide one, because the timing here genuinely differs from the rest of the state. That is a modelled typical curve, not a prediction for any single year. The actual push depends on cold fronts and freeze-up upstream, which is what the daily score tracks. Always confirm season dates with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division.
