shotgun with shot only means no slugs or buckshot

I think it means you can't shoot 500 m from the shore line out.

Are they really fishy,

They have a strong flavor to them. It all depends on what typ of duck you shoot. Widgeon, lesser and greater scaup(bluebills) eat grass and vegitation on the bottom. Still very good eating. Other ducks like buffleheads,Goldeneye, feed off of snails, small crabs and pretty much what ever else they can catch. Darker meat stronger flavor. Megansers feed on fish.
It's a great way to prolong your hunting season and there is no shortage of birds if you want to do some wing shooting. A bufflehead, extremely fast and small, is one of the more chalenging ducks to try and shoot on the wing.
A lot of Newfoundlanders prefer the fishy gamy birds over the grain fed ones. I guess it all comes down to what you were brought up on.
