Monday and Tuesdays snow created great hunting conditions for us in Rochester! It also brought in many new and uneducated geese which are always a pleasure to hunt. Three of us ventured out Tuesday to try our luck and it paid off...in about 35 minutes! The first sign that we would have a great hunt was when I had 20 decoys out and a migrator flock of 40 balled up and came down to 35 yards before realizing that the truck and trailer in the middle of their plastic friends probably represented bad things. We barely got back to the pits when the first flock of 18 came down and finished at 10 yards. We next had another good group of 14 come right into the kill hole and Eric and Trevor finished their limits. Five minutes later a pair did it right and we were all done for the day. During the action I was able to take a few photos of the geese and how close they were landing!

This pair was beautiful
Another Bunch Getting In Tight!
Thursday Bryce took a group out and they barely had enough time to eat a sandwich before the shooting was all over. The geese came out fast and they were hungry but to bad for them there were 6 guys waiting with a good looking trap set! The boys shot well and by 10:45 when the smoke cleared there were 18 geese laying on the ground. A great hunt with good people!
Thursdays Whackfest!
Obviously the geese are here and they are the ones we love to hunt. Bryce and I have been saying all year to get here and take advantage of these great hunts. Believe it or not but hunting will get tough one of these days. I hope it isn't soon because all these great hunts are a ton of fun to be on!
Call me or Bryce to get in on one of these hunts!
