[tanman]

earlier this month i had a few pest askin about how the hunting was in north dakota and now im hear to fill everyone in, we went for 5 days with 2 people some days we did dome jump shooting to finish off our limits so all the pictures may not have a whole limit of birds

day1 we arrived in north dakota about 5 am and set up in a wheat field we shot our limit of ducks and geese

day2 we hunted a roost pond nid day and shot our limit of mallards

day 3 we hunted a wheat field shot our limit of ducks and geese

day 4 we shot our limit of ducks before the sun hit the horizon out of a wheat fieldand hunted a pea field in the evening after we had our limit we landed hundreds of geese in our decoys and managed to shoot one snow, best hunt of the trip

day5 we shot our limit of ducks and geese out of the same pea field

totals for the week were 41 mallards 12 pintails, 22 canadas, 1 snowgoose 3gadwall and 2 teat for a total of 81birds

geez, now thats some good shooting! just curious and please dont take this as an attack, but what are the possession limits in nodak?

just noticed you shot 12 pins. nicely done, i can count the pins i've seen on one hand.

Possession limit in Nodak is twice the daily limit, so 12 birds. I'm assuming they were eating ducks breakfast, lunch and dinner. Not my cup-o-tea, but a lot of people do it.

Glad you had fun! Getting on a good pea field is just about as close to a slam dunk as a hunter can get...if they can figure out how to hide in one. Looks like you didn't have a problem with that

we saw tons of pins could have shot 12 everyday, we ate ducks all day long and gave a bunch away, it was a great week! VIDEO coming soon

[TylerS]

Glad you were able to gift some. I don't have much luck with that. The few occasions I've had to hunt posted property and have offered up some kill to landowners have resulted in either looks of disgust or straight up being laughed at. Most farmers I know give about as high of regard to waterfowl as they do crows and coyotes.

Nice piles guys. Whereabouts in NoDak where you?

[Sifty]

We had a similar experience last weekend. We shot 49 birds and 3 geese. We had 12 different species, including my first and second Bull Canvasback. It was an amazing 4 days. We had a lot of northern birds and I don't even want to talk about the ones that we missed.

looks like a great trip was had and great photos thanks for sharing

nothing wrong with eating ducks all day we did soem of the same ducks and walleyes for dinner every night

[TylerS]

nothing wrong with eating ducks all day

Agreed! As I said, not my cup-o-tea. I'd rather eat a couple fresh, maybe on the grill, wrapped in bacon, then fill out my possession and call it a trip. Nothing worse than having to eat ducks morning, noon and night just so you can keep killing. Kind of takes the fun out of it.

But if that's your bag, more power to ya! Just not for me...my guts would hate me

Just need to learn to be a creative cook...

Kill! Kill! Kill! Limit! Limit! Limit!

[Augusta]

Kill! Kill! Kill! Limit! Limit! Limit!

+1 and they wonder why they are not welcome....

we did not waste birds we ate them and shared them, if the birds are not wasted why would it bother anyone els... if i was just going to "kill kill kill" i would have also shot my limit of coots everyday also.

we did not force ourself to eat ducks. we chose to. we also shared them with a group of friends that were with us that were phesant hunting.

I hunt ducks because in my opinion they are great tasting, we ate ducks wrapped in bacon on the grill, sliced on sandwiches, on grilled cheese, and hot with peanut butter. all great ways to eat ducks in my opinion. geese belong in roasts i think, easy and cheap!

thank you everyone for the positive feedback

[nate larson]

Nice job tanman! If I got into em like you did I would be bragging as well.

[Maxxed Out]

Great Job guys and holy lessers batman. Looks like you shot all lessers and cacklers while you were there. That is monster blue!

[tanman]

we shot only 3 greaters
