I need a recommendation

[McCascades]

My son will be home from college at the end of the week. The boys and I were not able to get out and hunt big game this fall with moving and everything else we had on our plates. I would like to take both of my boys out for some good waterfowl hunting.  Can anyone recommend a good outfitter?  I live between North Bend and Snoqualmie Pass and  am willing to drive whereever to make this a great hunt.

Thanks in advance

Burbank.

You will kill ducks. Or geese.

End of story.

Eagle Lakes Ranch in Othello, would be my choice if you want birds.

North flight in moses lake.

Eagle lakes ranch has not been  producing limits, have a guides number in my phone he says not worth it yet, Lots of Lesser's not the big Honks yet, duck is still a little sparatic. unless your a good repeating client to hunt the triangle. Thats what my report is. Don't go with Echterncamps either went there twice last year big ZERO, would not even give us a discount, if we came again. And I went there on other peoples word that Aaron would put you on birds. I don't hate Echterncamps, but I would not pay for another hunt with them. I'm  sure the fields that we were in produced? just not when we were there.

Ive heard good things about hunting Pauls Pond. I think thats with Burbank Guide Service (could be wrong). They do geese too Im pretty sure.

havent been there personally but have read good things online and seen lots of tailgate pictures full of greenheads...

Here's a recent report from Burbank.  Paul is holding a lot of birds now and should be throughout the remainder of the season.  The only question is if he has any openings!  A good hunt is a Tues duck hunt followed by a Wed goose hunt.  The pond usually gets some rest on Monday!

Here's a pic from last Wednesday at Paul's Pond.



and a far off pic on Thanksgiving day.  He's got about double that amount or more now.

My buddies company books every year with Eagle Lakes, they do that for their customers instead of golf trips. 2 years ago, I was lucky enough to get invited to fill a spot when a guy couldn't make it, since it was already paid for "I said, I am your guy".      I got to see first hand what the "Triangle" was all about. We shot 4 limits of green heads in less than 40 minutes. Only took that long because we were not shooting well the first couple of flocks that came in. Then shot a limit of geese, to finish the day out. Sunday morning, we were done on ducks in 30 minutes for 4 limits.

Ok, thats awesome. I have heard nothing but good things about Burbank. How did he get that many ducks on a pond? Feeding them duck cocain?

Not cocaine but all that snow covered stuff between my camera and the birds is Barley.  Which is pretty much the equivelent of duck cocaine.

I went with Northflight out of Moses Lake the weekend before Thanksgiving and three of us limited out.  Had a blast, would totally recommend them.  As a word of caution, I was out in a field near Moses Lake last weekend and there was very little flying.  A lot of water is frozen over there.

any body use pacific wings in tri cities?

Holy schnikes!!! I can't believe the prices these outfits are charging. I admit that I haven't been on a guided hunt for 10 yrs, but wow!
