Eastern Ducks
« on: August 12, 2008, 11:25:49 PM »
Sorry if people are surfing around the different game categories and seeing my posts all over the place.

But I wanted to give duck hunting in Washington a good ole college try.

Only problem is i'm out here in cheney, and it is pretty apparent that there isn't that much water...

I did my undergraduate education in Platteville, WI right on the Mississippi fly way.  So I'm lost.

I have been hearing that the eastern WA duck numbers are declining, any thoughts on this?

If there is anyone out there looking for a duck hunting partner, or could take me out and show me the ropes, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks for any info,

Ellsworth
That's why it's called hunting and not killing.

74,000 ducks taken in Grant county last year. Over 400,000 taken in all of Washington last year. I haven't heard that the numbers are declining - there certainly haven't been any changes in limits.

I thought canvasbacks and scaup were switched this year?

With all of the new corn growth for the bio fuel and crap I think we will start to see more birds in the next few years!
