They make biodegradable wads if you reload.

JMO~ You could use a Pool Net to fish out the wads in your pond.

Yea maybe I just waited too long and they stacked up a lot but yea just trying to keep the place clean haha and it gets annoying if you duck hunt a lot...

I'll bet someone could come up with a better solution to this problem. Picking up empties certainly isn't hard to do, and I have picked wads when I see them, but we won't find them all and there should be a better way.

ugh yea i picked up almost an entire bag of a used corn sack… it was tedious work but i guess maybe its an invention someone needs to make, a "Wad catcher" haha

Until they come up with a biodegradable wading or one that is consumed int he firing, I think about the only thing you can do is pick them up as you can.

We used to pick them up off the trap range, wash and re-use them. Be surprised how fast you can learn to tell a 12 from a 16, or a 1 1/8 oz. from a 1 oz.
