Coastal Marsh Duck Migration Forecast

Brackish marsh from the Pearl mouth across the Pascagoula to the Alabama line. It never locks, so it still hunts the week the Delta is frozen.

When Coastal Marsh peaks

DuckCast’s season model puts the green-winged teal peak here around early January. Coastal Marsh carries its own season curve rather than sharing Mississippi'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 Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks.

What DuckCast watches upstream of Coastal Marsh

2 upstream stations feed this region's freeze line: Bolivar, Paris. When those stations ice over, the score here starts climbing before anything changes in the local sky.

Locations stay generalized

Hunter reports for Coastal Marsh are always shown at the region level. DuckCast never collects or displays exact coordinates, so filing a report here never burns a spot.
