When South Delta peaks

DuckCast’s season model puts the green-winged teal peak here around early January. This follows Mississippi's statewide curve; South Delta hasn't needed a curve of its own. 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 South Delta

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

Locations stay generalized

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