Posted By: greenheadkilla Web Member did not hunt 01-08-2011 14:46 – – – hello from your state to the SW! It seems as though the reports have died off for you guys….Any info on birds!? I do enjoy reading all the great posts on the NE page and appreciate all the reports. The CO page has all but dried up and i cant ever get info on my own state! Posted By: Zach Mayhew Field Editor Central Nebraska 01-03-2011 20:41 Sunny & Clear, Winds Calm – 25-30 Degrees – Ice Went out Sunday and as usual after I am done deer hunting there arent as many geese around as the week before. Probably has a lot to do with the change in the weather. Only geese we saw were the 30 in the field when we went back to the blind.

Posted By: Larry-Olson Field Editor North Platte river valley 12-15-2010 08:17 Mostly Cloudy, No Precipitation – 50-60 Degrees well I’d took my oungest daughter with me to the creek yesterday. We hunted with brian and gary. We were treated to a waterfowl spectacle before shooting time. we had mallards landing within a few feet of us. 1 nice bunch nearly landed on my dog and I’m proud to say she stood steady with 5 mallards within 5 feet of her in the water. Once shooting time arrived I was quite a bit different. regina had a couple chances to take her first duck but the action slowed considerably and we would only harvest 4. we probably could’ve shot quite a few ducks have we spent the whole day there and camouflaged better but we called it over round 930. the ducks were piled up.on the neighboring property where they were.safe.… Continue reading

Hunted with 32 bigfoots and 9 shells, hunters to the east and to the west. Birds are comin off the lake, right over multiple blinds and not decoying. Switched it up to 9 shells in the afternoon had alot give a look see, but my calling was foul. *note* blind to the east and to the west never fired a shot either. What gives how do I kill these birds?

Posted By: Larry-Olson Field Editor Northern Panhandle 11-21-2010 22:42 Cloudy, Snow Flurries – 25-30 Degrees – Open Water Well we took the boat to the lake I mentioned and found the boat ramp so icy before sunrise that I slid backwards the last ten feet into the water with my Wolverines on. After carefully considering the options and consequences of a extremely icy and steep boat ramp, coupled with the multitude of waterfowl that was trading from the water to the nearby cornfields, I decided to just pack a bag of duck decoys and the mojo to the most protected shore where we could reach open water with waders. It was a half mile hike but sure was worth it. My buddy and I quickly shot a limit of ducks even though we had to chase some cripples around for awhile. We waited for my son and one of my… Continue reading

Seems to be a good number of geese around though. The morning was the best time till about 1030-1100 then it went dead, the evening flight was after legal shooting hours. Posted By: kpsriverdice Web Member 11-19-2010 09:06 – – – Well guys, with the forecasted weather for North and South Dakota we should be getting a push of both ducks and geese for Thanksgiving. Good Luck to all! Posted By: Larry-Olson Field Editor northern panhandle 11-18-2010 08:29 Cloudy, Winds Calm – 35-40 Degrees migration continues to trickle down thus goose and mallard numbers slowly increase. most small ponds have ice on the edges and even larger… Continue reading

Posted By: jdgreen402 Web Member Farm pond near Valley, Ne 11-14-2010 13:27 Sunny & Clear, Winds Calm – 30-34 Degrees – Ice Wandered-out to the blind this morning. Glad that I did! Finally started to see some activity. Had a pair of gaddies working a creek nearby. Had a pair of mallards work the pond well (thanks to a misfire shell, I didn’t get them). Had a really high (guessing 150 yards up) flock of 30 or so mallards work the pond. Circling multiple times… Continue reading
