    There are 3 small ponds in succession, they favour the one with most cover which suits a maimai setup. They seem to come into it on dusk, yet sit on the others which are about 1-2 km away out in the open. Would like to bring them into the closer one with feeding yet I'm not sure if it would work as they onyl seem to come at dusk, at a guess after feeding?
    It sounds like the ducks are roosting on the open ponds and feeding on the one with cover. My pick would be choose one of the open ponds to shoot opening morning. Use a layout blind if need be. Feed the other two ponds. Don't disturb the ducks off the pond they mainly use during the day at all if it can be helped and don't feed it. Shoot the other fed ponds in the evening. Have a quick read of my first post in this thread
