A nice warm/dry coat as well.  Best of luck!  Let us know if you need anything other help.  Welcome to the obsession!

Yep, what they said. And to add to that, if you want to hunt snow geese in Snohomish and Skagit counties, or sea ducks, you need extra licenses. There is also some other goose things down south, but I don't live there so I don't worry about it :chuckle:

Buy good warm and dry gear, get a hunting partner that can call, and plan on it taking over your life . It's addictable!!!!!!!! :chuckle:

Buy the best gear you can reasonably afford.  Ask for inputs or reviews if you're not finding anything you like.
