If we'd get some weather we might actually have some geese. The field we were going to hunt got plowed under last week and our secondary field only had about 20 using it as of this morning.

I am with you on the pacing Destry...
I am really not fond of this early season seeing as everybody is a goose hunter for at least 1 day of it. Had a field that was loaded and the farmer tilled it under and planted alfalfa. The birds went to the neighbors and the ladies "son in law" is going to hunt them.  pretty typical of this time of year.... Birds switch fields a few times prior to the season and every third field has a group of hunters. I like the waterfowl hunting after Oct. 1 when all the yahoos are out chasing deer. There are a couple of other fields that may pay off.....only time will tell. After they all get blown off all the backyard ponds they start to congregate in a few key locations. As cool as it is this year the molt migrants may move a little earlier also.

Don, those resident Canadas are the best kind. They've been eating cheese curls, pop-corn, peanuts and bits of bread all summer at local parks and industrial campuses like yours. You don't even need to stuff them before roasting - just cook 'em with 'trails' in

Dean you are exactly right. A Canada feeding on Fritos and fescue can't be beat.There are tons of geese here at work, on my farm and at my neighbors but I can not muster the enthusiasm to hunt geese in 85 degree weather. My waterfowl season will open in exactly 30 days in a marsh along the St. Lawrence in Quebec. With any luck it will be 50 degrees!
