Let's Get Fired Up!

Duck Season Has Begun And Johnny Wink Is Ready!

 

Johnny Wink, owner and proprietor of Megabucks Duck Guide Service located in Jones, Louisiana beneath the Mississippi Flyway, has been offering premium duck and goose hunts for over 50 years, since he was a teenager. Megabucks itself has been in operation since 1974. One of the things that makes Megabucks so special is its location beneath the Mississippi Flyway. 

It doesn't get much better than this!

  • Louisiana winters the largest concentration of migrating waterfowl in America. At the Arkansas-Louisiana state line, the flyway narrows to a one-mile bottleneck where seventy percent of all migrating waterfowl will pass. Stand in the yard at Megabucks and look up. This mile-wide bottleneck is directly overhead Megabucks.


  • Duck season currently lasts for 60 days. During those 60 days, Megabucks will stay booked. There are repeat regulars who have standing reservations each year. There are newcomers. Hunters have come from as far away as Scotland, Canada, Jamaica, South Africa and Mexico and all over the United States. There is no typical duck hunter. They come from every walk of life, come in a variety of age groups and nationalities. The only thing they all have in common is their desire to enjoy a successful hunt. Johnny Wink does his dead-level best to ensure that goal is reached.


  • “All I do is what I would want a guide to do for me,” said Johnny. “I have listened to my guests for 45 years, learning what they like and don’t like.” With this in mind, Johnny does everything in his power to make each individual hunt memorable.

The Epitome of an ideal duck hunting experience

  • As a result of years of dedication , coming to Megabucks is the epitome of an ideal duck hunting experience. Hunters generally go home with a promise to return the following year. Johnny offers an array of amenities not found in most duck camps. No hardship hunt here, the lodging is similar to “roughing it at the Hilton.”


  • Twelve beds are available in the main lodge and eight beds in the new camp. Both lodges have full kitchens. The main lodge has three bathrooms and the new camp has two. Because Megabucks is family-friendly, many hunters bring their wives and kids to hunt with them.


  • “I encourage hunters to bring their dogs,” said Johnny. There are covered kennels at both lodges. Duck hunters know a good duck dog is worth its weight in gold. Johnny has two superb resident hunting dogs:  A golden retriever named Huck and Black Lab Duke.

"It's an honor to hunt with you"

 

  • Megabucks offers more than 6,000 acres of private land holdings on which to hunt; 1,400 acres of flooded rice, corn and bean fields for ducks and over 5,000 of dry fields for geese.


  • Additionally, everybody who hunts at Megabucks is eligible for a bonus unguided afternoon goose hunt. For a little extra, deer hunts are also available.


  • Johnny sums it up by saying, “The hardest thing in duck guiding is not to be the best duck caller or to have the biggest and finest lodge, or even the best duck blinds, but it is to get a hunter from across the street or from across the country to come and pay you to hunt. I feel that it is an honor to have someone do that. We don’t limit out every day but we do kill a lot of ducks.”








 “I have a lot of repeat customers who are my close friends now. Sharing a duck blind with friends is a special thing. I try to make everybody who hunts at Megabucks my friend. I am thankful to all my customers who have come and hunted with us. I hope we can have many more fine days in the blind. Duck season is just around the corner. Get fired up!” 

  •  “Most hunters take their ducks and geese home with them after a hunt,’” said Johnny. “We have a great place to clean birds with cleaning machines or next door is the local duck plucker if you want someone else to clean them for you.”


  • Over the years, Johnny has found that some hunters like to stay up late, others turn in early. Because everyone has their specific habits and needs, Johnny arranges hunts in intimate parties of four or more. This way, no one has to share the lodge with strangers.


  • At the end of the day, guests can unwind sitting around a crackling fire in the Texas fire pit, or while away the evening hours playing in the super-size game room and bar. Here they can indulge in playing pool, foosball, slot machines or just kick back and thumb through multiple photograph albums of past hunts and spectacular sunrises. Another option is relaxing in front of the 65-inch big screen TV with surround sound..
