#1 Yes you can hunt, but need to check the specific area cause a lot of it is closed to hunting.
#2 No, not worth the drive unless your into spooners, teal and wigeon.
The lake has no duck food to hold the ducks here. If the state would regulate the water a little better we’d be o.k., but the lake is dead and no cover close to the water.

Mallard hunting continues to be good if you’re where they want to be. Groups are getting smaller but they were working to the call great. Only the U was working on my O/U so I had to take 1 out of each group. You really concentrate when you only get 1 shot!! We quit with 9 mallards for 2. Lots of Pintail flocks and Mallard/Pintail groups. We saw one nice group of teal and a group of blackjacks. That was it for other ducks.

Seeker check out the pic in landscapes from the goose I smoked yesterday. the dry rub and mop sauce recipe are at the bottom of the page under the recipes forum. Good luck and congrats on your smackdown.
me and my partner shot 14 in two days last week at our milo fields down south. it’s really tough if you don’t have a dominant wind in which to set up in. we’ll be back there in two weekends to try them again, can’t wait.

Went out and wacked geese with some partners yesterday. They were flying good early and we took 10 home for 3 of us. Duckbag–you got any killer goose breast recipes?

I hear you Duckbag.
I suppose you haven’t seen the crows they’ve been knocking down as well.
There were a small charge of Mallards in the area a week ago and I was doing good with them but they all seemed to have moved on from PB now and there’s not that much action there right now. This cold front should change things.

Tough goose hunting with no wind!, we did however manage to knock out 11 in two mornings. Weather was just freakin hot, I am glad that will be changing, we need it bad.
Hunted ducks at pena monday and it was tough as well. all the ducks that are there fly 100 yards high cause of all the skybusting, which I witnessed yesterday there! I can’t believe that these people actually think they are going to knock them down at 80 yards? oh well, they’ll get tired in awhile and hopefully quit when there wive’s wonder why they spend all that $ and come home with no ducks.
Saw these folks sail a wigeon into the bosque, of course they did not try to retrieve it, me and my dog went after it about an hour later and found him. a beautiful drake, which didn’t deserve to have a broken wing, laying in the bosque waiting to die.
Please learn the game a play it by the rules!

Duckbag, that’s why I don’t like PB!
