Man I wish WA had some late season goose hunting.
Just came back from hunting in Oregon, well i have gone the last 3 weekends, and man is it fun to extend the season. And i love those little cacklers. They are such a cool bird. I shot a really nice white ringed bird a couple weeks ago and i think i am going to get him mounted. Although i want to get another white ring to mount with him. and maybe a band or two
Had some great hunts over the 3rd period and although we dont try to shoot a ton of birds, we had plenty in the decoys. At one point we had 3000+ geese all around us while we were hidden in a clover field. Quite the racket and what an experience!
A few pics from oregon

last year

the cows loved us.



If anyone wants to trade some hunts i would love to hunt the SW permit zone in WA next season or anywhere there are some cacklers in the state. I know there are a few on the Chehalis and down in the Nisqually but i havent taken the time to figure those hunts out yet.

You did well on that hunt last year. Nice job. Is that a new pup on the right I see or is that your hunting partners pup?

mine is on the left. she is getting up there unfortunately...
I'll post some newwer pics later tonight.

nice pics, looks like you had a good time....i am jealous.

I have access to about 26K acres in the southern willamette valley between corvallis and salem, hit me up next season bring decoys and snacks.

ummm.... I'll bring duck snack sticks, smoked salmon, shrimp... you name it.
I'd love to be able to come down and hunt some geese down there. do you hunt the permit zone much?
