Glad to hear that you are still doing some killing Iron Dog, you just need to get a Chessie so that little weather doesn’t bother them!!!!!!! :):)
I’ll hit it again this week when I get off.
Hey not sure if you have ever tried it before but with these last mallards I used a duck brine you can find a million recipes online for them and it worked great. This particular recipe said it could make a mergy taste like prime rib. Well being a south dakota boy that sounded good to me, it was good but it wasn’t prime rib…
Good luck

Had a nice little mallard hunt today, been scouting a little hole this last week so this morning when I got off work I hunted it. Ended up with two nice drakes, must have been fifty more couldn’t keep them out of this hole but these late season mallards tend to taste a little fishy so I only shot two hoping to make them taste better than past recipes and not wanting to shoot up about the only good hole left that I know of.

A friend of mine recently moved to Soldotna and is looking for areas to hunt waterfowl on the Kenai Penninsula. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Back from Sask, had a great time lots of carnage and am I am spoiled. Went out scouting a couple times this week, nothing but empty skies. Seen some mallards, the T-river is ice choked so I can’t get to my mallard holes.
Most of the mallards I saw were susies, usually they migrate first before the drakes so I’m not sure if the big northern birds are still holding to the north or what is going on.

This is my first time on here. Hunted Sat, no ducks, hunt the salt off of knik out past the ponds. Usually lots of ducks here by now but none this year, very poor. Hardly anything flying. Only good sign was frost on the ground all morning, hope it freezes inland and drives some ducks to us.

Where is the Delta you are talking about? I am going to hit both areas hard starting in the morning and this weekend unless I can find other options.
Found the Alaska refuge forum,
thanks for the help

Cloudy, Light Rain & Drizzle – 35-40 Degrees
Hey guys, New to AK and my passion is with Waterfowl. I have scouted out both areas listed above and both hold lots of water. Was successful last weekend with a few on the lake down rabbit slough. Seems this area gets lots of preasure. But needed to keep the birds moving. Scouting is key it seems. I hear the birds are now just getting here and the season for them is pretty short due to lockups coming. Im looking for information on hunting waterfowl in the area, or someone to give me some ideas. I got all items, Tons of decoys both ducks and geese, Dog, boat and will travel. What is the scoop on the geese? I heard something about Coffee Point, But seems like a difficult ride due to tides etc. Are there any other options for hunting geese here in Alaska?
Thanks for all help and information
Your fellow waterfowler
