Unable to get to the Trumpeter Swan refuge. Ducks should be starting to move in the next two weeks.

The way this weather looks it may be a short season so was just asking. Drop me a line. Shannon Posted By: MUTTLEY Guest Kodiak? 08-15-2006 01:53 – – – Hello, I have just moved from Maine (Downeast), to Kodiak (Island) AK, so I figure I would stop bye and say hello…hello, since I had to change my address on here. I was just wondering if there is anybody on the AK forum that duck hunts around Kodiak? Can’t wait for duck season. Posted By: long gunner Guest Anchorage, Alaska 07-10-2006 22:12… Continue reading

Posted By: duckstein WFC Sponsor 01-11-2006 15:47 Sunny & Clear, High Winds – 45-50 Degrees Hey wyomingducknut, I saw your post by accident when I clicked on AK instead of AL. I used to live in Jackson and hunted two seasons over there. Since I don’t live there anymore I don’t mind spillen’ a few beans. We had consistent shooting throughout the first 2/3 of the season below the refuge in star valley. The best way to find the good spots is by jump shooting as you float down. There are also some small beaver ponds off the main river that can be good. If you can get permission there are some decent spots for geese and a few ponds that can be loaded at times. Also, if your up for some competition, South Park is good on opening day, but I wouldn’t mees with it after. The Salt near… Continue reading

Hey not sure if you have ever tried it before but with these last mallards I used a duck brine you can find a million recipes online for them and it worked great. This particular recipe said it could make a mergy taste like prime rib. Well being a south dakota boy that sounded good to me, it was good but it wasn’t prime rib… Good luck Posted By: Irondog Guest 11-03-2005 10:04 Cloudy, Winds Calm – 10-20 Degrees – Ice WELL RIC WE ARE STILL HUNTING AND DOING GOOD .

Posted By: Ric-Seward Guest 10-03-2005 22:27 – – – Well were still having pretty good weather up here still. Been seeing some cranes still hanging around so I imagine the geese are still here. Headed to Wynyard Sask on Wed for 12 days of goose slaughtering and some band collecting. Good luck to anyone still hunting. Posted By: Ric-Seward Guest Delta 09-29-2005 19:09 Cloudy, Snow & Rain Mix – 40-45 Degrees Well what a difference a day makes, yesterday I limited out on geese in no more than 15 minutes. Today heavy winds and snow and we only managed a loner. Geese still around got some new cranes in today, plus seen probably 100 swans between clearwater and the T River. Gonna break out the duck decoys tomarrow and see what happens. Posted By: Ric-Seward Guest 09-27-2005 13:44 – – – Haven’t had much time to get on here lately.… Continue reading

Posted By: Ric-Seward Guest 08-28-2005 11:56 – – – Was out yesterday for the first time to take advantage of the subsistence hunting and seen probably 300 gesse. I don’t like to shoot in to the big flocks, especially this early in the year as it tends to push them out. I had a lone speck and a pair of Canadas come in so it was a nice day. Skybust not much for ducks right now but that is pretty typical. We have so much water you really have to do alot of scouting. They should start forming up in the clearwater shortly. Hope everybody has a good opener and be safe. Taiga let me know if you head down this way. later Posted By: skybust Supporting Member 08-25-2005 20:38 – – – rick hows the duck numbers look up your way???
