Duck hunting near Eatonville?

[cliffordingles]

Hey everyone, I'm trying to get my 17 year old brother inlaw inti wing shooting. He lives in Eatonville and I know of no places out there to take him. He's a really good kid and wants to become a wildlife officer. Lol, so what I'm getting at is he's a good kid and we need to find a place near him. All my places are way to far for him to drive back and forth. Thanks for reading!

I might be able ro help, but most of my hunting is on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Does he have his hunting license?

Thanks for the reply Pens! He does have all his tags and what not. Not to sure if he would want to go with someone else... he's kinda shy lol

Thats up to him. I have an 18 foot G3 with a pump and a dog. l' almost done with the blind and could use an extra gun. There are really five lakes to hit:
Kapowsin...dangerously stumpy, really need a boat, and the boat launch has been known for vandalism. I never hunted it.
Alder...pretty much need a boat, and access is limited to water level. Hunted once on foot for geese and realized you pretty much need a boat.
Rapjohn... need a boat, and i think it's electric only, only two blinds that MUST be hunted from on a first come basis. Duck hunting is spotty, but quality birds. Geese are possible, but require scouting for pass shooting.
Silver...need a boat, and there is a launch fee. Lots of divers, geese are usually too high to bring down.
Harts...need a boat. No launch fee. Quality ducks and divers. Shooting spots are limited. Geese are possible with enough dekes.

Private land is out there, maybe Dean- Kreager by Silver. Used to ne able to hunt the dairy farm behind Harts....might be worth a shot to ask. I used to hunt it alot for geese in the fields but it was shut down.
