The Youth Hunt was a success. 22 hunters 17 parents, 9 blinds 180 decoys , 400 ducks harvested and one goose. A big Thankyou to the Swinomish and Edison Duck Clubs for opening up for the youth! Rick Holt and Rich Sibka over seeing each location.
The Farmed Island Boat tour was also a success. 7 boats ferried the crowd over to the island unit where WDFWs Kern Cosgrove did a walking tour.Afterwords the crew piled back in the boats and went for a jaunt around the island visiting Steam Boat Slew, and Mill Town.

I sat right behind Special T.
Great organization, more should join. They are likely putting on a duck slam event for members, join to participate.
The discussion revolved around doing a test run for members only if you've been on the fence, or just need a little nudge to join you should. This great ideal will likely go whole hog next year after some beta testing.

The example I can give is my youngest son. He's decided to participate in the adult slam. He only has 2 birds left to go. So now when we are out he only looks for black ducks flying! It is quite funny when its just mallards coming in cause he's all bumded! What a great problem to have!
So get with your friend and send a email to WWADABBLERSLAM@gmail.com Get enrolled and have some fun...
Once you are enrolled its as easy as take a picture of yourself and your bird and emailing it to the account! I'll keep track of your success.
They seam like easy birds to get but I'm willing to bet that you only shoot one a season on a few of them.
So A few questions I'm sure.
1) Do I have to shoot all in one Day? NOPE you got all season, heck who even knows where coots are!!!
2) Do I have to be a member in good standing? YES, So pay your dues. You can send it to me and I'll forward it along. (I'll be checking).
3)Youth slam, so does that mean boys and girls can enroll? Yes they can but it is supposed to mean they can shoot drakes or hens (realizing they might not get out that much). Also for only $10 for them, so get the kids signed up!
4) I would like my kids to get in on this one too (thanks for clearing up the sex thing) do they have to be registered? YES either on their own or a family membership.
a. Can shoot drakes or hen's.
b. Cost for your slam $10.
5) But I’m not a WWA member (SHAME ON YOU!!!)? Well sign up, send a email to WWADABBLERSLAM@gmail.com and we’ll get you straightened out.
So get your crew together and get enrolled! It would be good to have a better standing then your partners!
I hope your reading clear down to here cause this program is a great way to go after some birds you don't normally shoot and will get you to try some different things. Hunting should be fun and that is what we are trying to do with this one. If you have any questions then send and email to WWADABBLERSLAM@gmail.com and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
Be stoked about the season and always be safe out there!

Ran into the the game warden on Friday 11/30 at the corner of Weidkamp and the Badger road picking up all these discarded and rotted ducks and geese that were apparently thrown from a vehicle over a miles worth on the Weidkamp road. The Whatcom chapter of Washington Waterfowl Association has offered a 250 dollar reward for the conviction of the people responsible for this disgusting wastage. Please Share!
MAJOR WASTAGE CASE – WHATCOM COUNTY
Officer Koontz received a tip about numerous ducks and geese being dumped in a ditch along a road in Whatcom County. Officer Koontz and Brad Otto, a Natural Resource Technician, recovered over 60 birds from the ditch. None of them were breasted and they appeared to have been dead for several days. The birds were spread out singly. It appears they were thrown from a vehicle traveling up the road. This major wastage case is currently under investigation. We are requesting that if you have any information to call us at 1-877-933-9847 or anonymously text us at 847411 (TIP411) Enter WDFWTIP (a space) and the Report.

I took my kid to this even the past 2 years and i can say the properties that Rick Skiba has lines up are some of the most phenomenal private gun clubs that most people will never set foot on. I Joined WWA because i was so impressed with this outreach program. If you have a kid that wants to hunt, and you dont have a bunch of experience, gear, or locations this is a must sign up for event. I cannot speak highly enough of Skibas work on this each year!

Hello All!
We need your voice! The non-shooting zone proposals appear to be a very close vote with the Whatcom County Council. At the last meeting the issue was tabled in order to see if the Blaine City Council (who is the main force behind the proposals) would accept a 1000ft buffer and abandon the non-shooting zone proposals.
If Blaine refuses to accept this compromise, we need to show our opposition through written public comment and particularly through comments in the live meeting.
I strongly encourage all members to make their voices heard by sending your feedback to the Whatcom County Council at council@co.whatcom.wa.us and to attend the virtual council meeting on Tuesday June 1st at 6pm. Zoom meeting information can be found here.
Make sure to include agenda item numbers AB2021-185 and AB2021-186 in your feedback.
This is extremely important to preserve public hunting opportunity and the unique experiences that Drayton Harbor has to offer.
Best Regards,
James Ono
WWA Vice-President

(My personal commentary)
Soon this historic piece of hunting land will be turned into a mass of cattails in the name of salmon habitat restoration. They dont yet have the funding to destroy it so experience a little piece of Skagit river hunting history.

The NW Chapter sponsored Youth and Veteran
waterfowl hunts on February 5th. This was the third year
that the chapter sponsored this special hunt opportunity.
Hunts were conducted from several locaƟons from Samish
Bay to the Snohomish River Delta. We had numerous
Veterans and Youth parƟcipate in the event.
The weather and Ɵdes were in our favor again this
year although hunt success was down from last year.
Several hunters took home a mixed bag of ducks and a few
Brant were also taken.
Special Thanks...
… goes out to Tony
Breckenridge (Edison Gun Club),
Adam Schuller for coordinaƟng
the Edison hunt, Amber
Parmenter (The Nature
Conservancy) and the Blue Chip
Gun Club. The Edison Gun Club
provided blinds and decoys for
the hunt. Thanks to NW
Chapter members Tom EllioƩ
and Rick Billieu for providing
guided hunƟng opportuniƟes.
As always, a Big
Thanks to our Veteran/
Youth Hunt Coordinator Rick
Skiba who was once again
instrumental in seƫng up
another successful hunt with
great memories for all.
