Not MN and a few guys hunting before anyone assumes that bag limits were ignored. My first time hunting out of state in a few years due to school so it was nice to bag a few.

With the border shut down knowing ND would be busy we decided to go early in the season mid week to avoid the crowds and we went to a part of the state many do not consider duck country. Put a lot of

them goose alfredo pasta is so darn good!

Jordyn- Bemidji State University is a great school with excellent majors and courses to choose from and with the new addition of the hockey rink is a great asset to the BSU. The hunting can be pretty good if you find the birds, I do not do any hunting within the Bemidji area though. The nature up here is second to none with all the fishing you can do on different lakes, if you come up you will definitley enjoy it up here. I have not heard many bad things about former BSU students attending, even the guys and gals on this forum miss it up there and enjoyed their 4+ years of school.

I would have left my email for you to contact me to talk a little bit more but we are not supposed to on this forum....Anyways I have hunted very little for waterfowl around Bemidji but head a little more west and you should be set. You will see more hay fields, pasture fields more than wheat, soybeans, and corn. So chances are better West of Bemidji but pressure can be high. Good Luck, post in the Bemidji section for advice and so on if you make the decision attending BSU next fall.

Bemidji State was the best 5 years of my life. Could have done it in 4 but whats the hurry. I didn't personaly do much duck hunting around Bemidji but had lots of friends that did. There are a lot of lakes close by with rice in them. Most of the people up there are Hunters and Fishermen so you can get lots of hook ups on by networking. Loved it up there.

I shot a few ducks this weekend, 4 different species including Spoonbills, Greenwing Teal, Mallard (my first greenhead)and a Gadwall. Sorry I don't have many pics but I was too busy chasing ducks. Spoonbills and Teal ruled the weekends hunt making up 80% of the bag. My first greenhead didn't come without a fight, we had jumped a pond and about 75 ducks got up and they flew to my buddies posting on the other side and after they had shot, the ducks flew right over me and I touched off 2 shots at the drake only to watch him smack the water with such force that it shot water up 3'. I looked for half an hour and no dice, so we went back to the house and got the dogs only to have Lucy find it in less than 2 minutes. Dogs are an invaluable tool to the duck and pheasant hunter.

unfortunately Lucy got a thorn in her paw and caused an abscess so now her paw is twice as big as the other one. On heavy antibiotics so she should be ready to go in 2 weeks for pheasant opener. A learning opportunity to check their pads every night so stuff like this doesn't happen.

Tuesday Morning Hunting Flooded Corn Field.

5 man limit of Mallards and GWT with a Woodie, Widgeon and Pintail.

Saw 1000 plus ducks.

At one point we had 300 to 400 ducks within a 100 yard circle around us.

Is it a bad thing that you cannot shoot because there are too many ducks in the air and you do not want to educate a large number of local birds all at once........cool

      Took my last ice fishing trip of the season to Burntside on Thursday.  Went out on the snowmobile to fish better spots.  I waited until daylight to go out so I wouldn't get lost or run into open water.  When I got to my destination I discovered that the battery fell off of my Ion auger on the trip out (I won't make that mistake again).  I backtracked all the way back to the landing before finding it on the ice.   I got my lines in the water just before sunrise and caught a 24 inch lake trout 45 minutes later.  Always exciting watching the lake trout peel line off of the tip-up with their strong runs.  He quit running with the pike sucker soon after I took the video and I thought it may have dropped the minnow.  Pulling the line in by hand I could feel it still on so I set the hook and caught it on the lip.  Think I caught it before it was going to swallow the minnow and take its 3rd and final run.  Was nice to finally catch a laker on Burntside again after 5 straight trips getting skunked.   It was a beautiful day on the ice with good ice conditions, warm weather, and fairly calm winds.  The creel survey guy stopped and checked on me.  He said I was the only one he saw fishing on Burntside that day.  He said that most anglers he checked on Burntside that winter were skunked for lake trout, so I guess it was just not my problem alone.   20250327_072410.mp4

      But, the deep fried Okra went in the trash can.  I've tried it a few times and it's just not for me.  Neither is Grits, chittlins, or crackling!  🤮

      I think it's alway fun to try local fish or foods when I go somewhere! 😋 A few weeks ago I was down on Dauphin Island Alabama and tried a little flounder. They had small, mid and large. My wife had crab cakes, I got the mid! 😳 😆
