Had plenty of birds coming in before shoot time. Few birds working out of range. My son shot 4 shovelers and I got nada. We had plenty of chances but we just kept blowing them.

Posted By: skeeterbait Guest havasu 12-09-2006 11:46 – – – hey rustyduck, i am going to start hunting the havasu area and i just wanted to get some info on the area from you. where do you launch from. are the launch ramps paved or dirt. how far do you have to travel from the launch area to get to the hunting areas. are there any closed areas i would need to watch out for. what size/mix of spread are you putting out. how deep is the water in most of the areas you hunt. from your posts it seems you have some great afternoon hunts out there are the afternoon hunts usually productive. are there many other hunters out there. maybe we could put a hunt together and you could show me around. anthony Posted By: arustyduck Guest HAVA-ZOO N.W.R.-Castle Rock Zone 11-29-2006 23:48 Sunny & Clear, High Winds… Continue reading

Posted By: Jack on the rocks Guest cibola 02-28-2006 04:26 – – – the geeses just don`t want to go there and thats all they have been showing up in larger numbers in new mexico as you were saying.I think the reason that the geese arennn`t coming down this flyway is becuase a lot more of them that travel from salt lake are staying and wintering in ponds and small resivoirs before they make it down and don`t have to fly south.Also that would be good for cibola as a hunter in that area they should have someting like that but that also means more closed areas and i don`t think that it sells many licenses.thats what you will be looking at in the future of the sport down there the more geese that stay the more interest and so forth .As tghe geese move out hunters loose interest ,… Continue reading

Posted By: desertwaterfowler Gold Sponsor 11-17-2005 00:53 – – – Are any of you from the White Mountains? I was hunting in Showlow last weekend with my 11 year old and we saw very few ducks, except on the city lakes (i.e., Rainbow Lake). I’m wondering if the snow that Idaho just got this week has helped bring northern Arizona some new birds. If anyone knows, I sure would appreciate some input. Thanks, DW.
