Shuttin’ ‘er down for the season. This will be the last post from the SW PA region.
Ducks were a joke this year…..not sure where they all got to. Early season geese was awesome and the regular season was decent. I have one or two more hunts left in me befoe the fat lady sings though. First born came on 12/26 and takes most of of my/our free time. I hope to prepare some decent waterfowl dishes for maple sugar season and get things lined up for next year. This year just kind of slipped by with a new house and baby. Better luck nect year, right?

Hunted the lake Saturday morning for the last time this season. Other than mergansers we saw very few ducks and had no shooting.All in all the Pa. season was not very good for me.Just too warm. My jaunts down to Chincoteague have been very productive and I am finding I prefer to make the 3 1/2 hour drive to gun down there.
The season always ends much too soon. I would love to see the powers that be delay our regular opener 2 weeks and run it 2 weeks later but I guess that is wishful thinking.
Anyone have any snow goose reports from Middle Creek? “g”

Hunted the rivers the last 2 weekends, in 2 different spots. Last weekend was a bust on the ducks, but we did manage a deer with the flintlock off one of the islands. Yesterday we hunted the evening and ended up with 5 geese and a nice greenhead. Tons of birds but those big flocks can be a real handful to call and decoy. This weather should finish us for ducks this year but the RP goose season should still be strong. Good Luck!

I agree with Vogel…..looks like near 60 degrees a few days next week. Snowmobile one day, outdoor yard work the next. So much for hunting season.

I’d have to agree with Duckman-Dew. It’s looking worse and worse everyday. The weather isn’t helping produce anything either. I hunted a wetland area the other day and managed to score a few greenheads, that’s about it.
