Hello all,
I have been living down here in SW for a couple of years now. I'm going to try to get into waterfowl hunting this year. Seems like a ton of fun. I have a few generic questions.
I have 30 some decoys.... Used but they look ok.
I'm kind of lost on where I can hunt. I know of Vancouver lake area and Ridge field refuge.
Can I go to some pods/lakes and start hunting? Outside of city limits?
Can hunt on Columbia river?
You know places like that.
I was going to grab my gun and decoys and drive around tomorrow...
Any city limits will get you cuffed and stuffed.

Unless you have permission from the land owner to hunt private property. You can still be sited for trespass even without signs

If you need to ask yourself, Should I do it. The answer should be NO.
Just ask people in person, Not by phone.
Don't show up at the farmers door in slacks and dress shoes

A lot of property is posted because they want to know who is on it. All they can say is no. Then move on to the next spot.
WINDSHIELD TIME WILL YIELD HUNTING SPOTS!
