We are going about 1 hour east of Winnipeg. We are hunting the 5th through the 9th. I am hoping to get into some snows. I have reports that they are already trickling into that area.
Well this weekend turned out pretty good. We shot limits of geese Saturday and Sunday. We shot all of our birds over wheat fields this year. That’s a first. Although I have shot birds in wheat in the past, this year that was the only place that I could really pattern them. There are tons of geese around and we saw a couple hundred both days, its just hard to find them using the same spots day after day. The wood ducks are thick as well. This weekend should be lots of fun. I have yet to see and teal but the woodies are everywhere. Try looking for small secluded ponds. That’s where the most of the birds that I have been seeing are. The creeks and small rivers have held a few but the majority are on ponds. Hope everyone had a good goose season.

So far its been OK. We killed 8 geese in a wheat field on Saturday morning and 1 was banded. A very old band that was nearly worn through on the edges. We shot 2 on Monday on a pond but should have done better. Oh well, its early yet. The doves seem to be very spotty. I have shot sunflower fields twice and one shoot was good while the other one was a wash. The places that have birds seem to have lots of them while the average places don’t seem to have many at all. Scout like crazy before you shoot or you could end up like us, only firing a few shots. The geese have been like typical early geese, here one minute and gone the next. In the past week I have seen them in clover, wheat, alfalfa and in a feed lot. Its kinda just where they want to be that day it seems.
We are going to Canada the first week of October and I hear its gonna be good. The crops (at least in the area of Manitoba that we are going) are 3 to 4 weeks late this year and water is abundant. There are already lots of ducks in the area up there so I’m looking forward to it.

Squirrel starts this Saturday. There are nuts everywhere!! The hickory trees are hanging over with nuts and the walnuts and buckeyes are full as well. The squirrels have begun to test the hickory’s but I haven’t found any heavy cutting going on just yet. The early goose is just around the corner as is dove. I would usually have some geese located by now but all this standing water is making it tough. They are here one day and gone the next. Hopefully it will dry up some between now and then.

The turkeys have really loosened up the last week or so. They were pretty henned up at the beginning of the season but we have had super luck the past 7 days. We have killed several nice birds and hopefully I can get my son on one this weekend (he missed two the opening week). We have done well getting on birds later in the morning. This past weekend we got on one at 10:30 and on Sunday we didn’t get on the one we killed until 12:15. They are still gobbling fairly well, but most of it is on the roost. Later in the morning they are firing back up. Stay late and good luck. I hope everyone has had a safe season.

The turkey season is almost here fellas. The birds are still grouped up (gobblers) so it might be setting up just right. This morning I saw 5 gobblers strutting in a field together so once they split up its gonna be on. Everyone be safe and post up some pics!!!!
