I'm fairly new to goose hunting (I'm a bow hunter) and I hunt with a few guys that are equally as new. We all live and hunt in the north east metro about an hour from Minneapolis. Being new to the sport, our goose calling needs some work. Does anyone know of someone that gives goose calling lessons? The lessons don't need to be in the northeast metro, we can travel.

Hey every one,
my old lohman wood duck finally bit the big one, so I am in the market for realistic sounding wood duck call. My old lohman would stop woodies in their tracks, but I heard the duck commander wood duck call and it sounded off. Please let me know what you use and how it work thank you.

Decent first three weekends of the waterfowl season in central MN. Been water hunting only so far, on permanent water. Ducks are dispersed with all the temporary flood water around from all the rain. Crops are slowly coming out, will probably be behind schedule due to wet conditions. We have harvested mallards, wood ducks, BWT, GWT, shovelers, pintails, redheads, ringnecks, ruddy ducks,and Canada geese so far. Locals the first two weekends, but the cold front last week move a lot of local ducks out and a few new birds moved in out of ND and Canada. Good luck, and I will see you out there somewhere.

Any bird reports from the South end???
Just wondering if anyone is seeing anything flying or loafing. I am coming up for the weekend to do some maintenance on my parents place. Trying to decide what to haul up there. I know what I saw a month ago, but a lot can change in a short time on big water.
People with eyes on conditions helps.
Thanks.

With all the ducks I am seeing next weekend should be a fun time. I am going to be chasing Ducks in the morning and deer in the evening. I am jacked up for this duck season. My cousins husband said we will be doing more diver hunts this year. I am thinking I will hunt my dad's pond opening morning, because I will be deer hunting the field that afternoon.

For many years I could only afford the cheapest decoys - which worked. But, I finally upgraded my goose floaters. Can you see the difference?
Gnh used 6 years with paining touch ups verses avian x.

It is about time to start scouting for deer. I have been seeing lots of deer hitting bean fields. The deer have been using a trail near the pond at my dads and this is good for me seeing I can hunt on the down wind side of this trail. Is anyone starting to get the itch to sit in a stand waiting for deer to come by?
The oats and wheat field are be harvested and the geese are starting to fly around looking for the harvested ones.
I have been looking for ducks and have been finding a good number of wood ducks, teal, and mallards around for now.
I will be getting some practice time in with the crossbow, so I am ready for the first day of deer season. I should get out and shoot some trap as well with the shotgun to get ready for the goose season.

Federal Duck Stamps came out today. Can't say I've ever seen a Ruddy Duck but it won the contest.
If the stamps are out the seasons have to be getting close. If you think about it early goose is only a month month and a half away! Time to start putting spreads together, adding those last minute decoys to the stack and tossing layout blinds in the sun to get faded.
Anyone hunting ducks over 16years old needs a stamp. I would recommend you buy your young hunters one too. Just for the memory factor. 20years from now they will look at all the stamps in the file and be thankful they had one your each year he or she hunted.

Didn't Casey have some health issues? Anyone who wants to follow me around the lake is welcome to... -
By JerkinLips · Posted
I believe Cliff retired from guiding, Casey quit guiding, and Mark B left the state. Maybe forum posters are getting tired of others following them on the lake. -

I'm going to have to start following you around😀. Look out for the guy with binoculars checking out your fish catching system and marking those spots on my gps😀😀😀. I know your ice house spot!!! I didn't see you out there in the winter, wanted to stop by and say hello!! -

I don't have any problems catching walleyes on the west end but keep the myth alive. 😄 -

Ace too. There were a few others I can't remember. I don't know specifically what happened, but I think some people get too into the forums especially on the politics side. Then someone gets their feelings hurt and the swear off a forum and move on. Oh well. I still like the rest of you! -
