Potholes Reservoir, anyone had luck there or near Seattle?
« on: December 09, 2014, 12:56:52 PM »
I am totally new to Duck Hunting, but not hunting. Looking for area's to scout. Live in Seattle Area. Not sure how far I need to go for some good Duck action? Any locations recommended?

Thanks!

Thats an odd question and a wide area of questioning. Are you looking at success in Pothole, or Success anywhere from Pothole to Seattle?
Is it waterfowl season yet..............

Sorry to be vague. Thinking "Success anywhere from Pothole to Seattle". I hunt Deer every year so familiar with hunting, but Duck hunting would be 100% new.

Would even pay a guide to show me the ropes.

Thanks!

Ross Outdoor Adventures, guide service hunts the potholes. I have used him for fishing but not hunting. He runs a good fishing operation, I do know that.

I'm headed over for a hunt with another Hunt WA member in about a week and half... You'll do right by Aaron.
