I can't say I've seen tons in the air lately...it seemed there were a fair number of ducks moving last weekend, but as of late I haven't seen much.

thanks for the reply i guess we will see what happens either way i know it will be a blast and will post a report later

As of late yesterday a lot of the small water is now mostly froze over... with temps not expected to get too far beyond freezing in the next week or so I'm guessing that's about it for pothole hunting.

I haven't seen any ducks but there's thousands of geese coming through. Hard to say how long they will be here. I just starting noticing them on wedsday this week and now there all over.

I've only been around out west as far as peterburgs(about 50 miles west of Grand Forks) and there geese every where. I would assume there's geese over by Devils lake. I've been out trying to get my deer every day the past two weeks so I know whats coming down from Canada. Lots of grouse out there as well. Alot of the corn is off so the geese have plenty of food to stay around in theory, hopefully. Good luck. If you want more specifics let me know.
