February 1, 2002 – Migration Update

Light goose numbers are good to excellent in New Mexico and Nebraska. Texas hunters are reporting fair success with jump-shooting opportunity best. In Colorado, numbers are fair with decoying providing its share of frustration. Warm temperatures have geese scattered in Kansas, Arkansas and Missouri — with hunting best in eastern Arkansas along the Tennessee border.

Recent snow and colder temperatures are expected to improve conditions and feeding patterns of geese over the next few days. With any luck, the resulting snowfall to the north will push geese south over the next few days.

Light goose hunters are urged to visit the Audubon study links provided on our National Snow Goose Tracking page. The Audubon study, conducted with satellite tracking systems, offers incredible insight into the feeding distances geese travel before heading north.
