Colorado river 01-21-2007 13:12
Mostly Cloudy, No Precipitation – 25-30 Degrees – Ice
Hunted yesterday afternoon. Got to my spot a little late. I was able to take a couple of greenheads that ventured a little too close to the goose deks. The colorado is frozen up from Cameo to Debeque canyon and beyond. From there to Rifle it is shelfed up and hard to hunt.
There are a lot of geese around the GJ area and I had close to a thousand fly over me on their way to roost but too high to shoot.
One more weekend to go.

The river isn’t frozen and there are a good number of ducks and geese using the river. Lots of Mallards, Widgeon and Pintails! Be careful and know what species of duck you are shooting at. We actually had a group of 12 Pintails land in our decoy spread today. Good Luck to everyone.

Went out with a buddy after school today and had a great shoot. We went out just for ducks but ended up with a big goose and two mixed bag limits of golden eyes, mallards, red heads, and ring bills, all of which were drakes. When we got to out pond we had to break up the ice but once that was done the birds just came right in.

I saw another post with some pictures posted from Tuesday out at Atwood SWA and the whole river was frozen. Does anyone know if the Platte is still frozen?

Colorado river east of Grand Jct. 01-12-2007 22:16
Cloudy, Snow & Rain Mix – 35-40 Degrees
I haven’t had too much to report the last couple of weekends.
Today I did an afternoon hunt down by grand jct. Nothing flying until 4 pm then there was a good number of geese. I saw a couple hundred or more leave a roosting area and head down river.
I had only one flock come in to my deks but that was all I needed. I shot my limit out of that one flock and also picked up my first banded bird in 30+ yrs of waterfowl hunting.
