migration reports?
« on: November 23, 2011, 04:01:33 PM »
wondering where the Migrants are? here in the north basin only have some locals and there are a lot of geese to the south
in the Moses Lake area,however not seeing any fresh birds. Not asking for spots,just asking for migration reports, Temp in Calgary,
is the same 52 F that I have at my house, did they fly by, or are they held up by Customs?

Hunted seep lakes/potholes area last saturday and saw (and shot) lots of teal with a couple mallards mixed in.  Tons of geese flying high, but almost no large ducks to speak of.

Ducks were coming by the thousands today.....they are here.  First time this year I've seen such numbers.

I think there was a push of teal come through, maybe a few mallards but not many.

My friend just called and said that he just saw 100 acres of ducks that just came into a disced
corn field by I-90 in the Moses Lake area at around 4:30, so maybe some northerns are starting
to enter the area, see what tomorrow brings.

for the coastal hunters, there were tons of birds headed inland off the salt with this storm brewing.  I watched thousands of ducks flying east today.

They were flying to a spud field......But before any gomers try and hunt them. the field is very soupy you wont get ten feet. Very dangerous.
The grass field next to it....Good luck getting permission.... Blue light special....  :chuckle:

All the ducks flying to one spud field??  I think not  :chuckle:  The ducks will be spread out where ever there is a puddle of water, and there are lots of puddles.
As far as the gomers go? Let them do their thing on Thanksgiving , they'll all be gone after today..

Snows are spread out too!  Gotta be atleast 300 spud fields in Skag co. so some more ducks in others with less pressure I'm sure.
