goblueM Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 well I guess I'll kick off the Early Goose pictures for 2010... one of my big fears of moving to Virginia (the state, not the city) was lack of waterfowl hunting opportunities in the mountains. Well turns out there is a massive resident goose population. Early goose limits are 10 daily 20 in possession. We jump shot from kayaks in the fog this morning and limited out by the time the fog lifted 2 hours after sunrise. What a day... He had 10 geese in his boat... and about 2 inches of freeboard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CANOPY SAM Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Today? That's not fair! We can't even hunt near water during early season!Beautiful pictures Blue! Wish I was there. Virginia is a really scenic and beautiful region of the U.S. You should have coastal opportunities as well. Watch out for the hurricanes!Gotta clean em' quick though!!!

JPowell Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 So, i would say that the early season hunts have not been going good or everyone is a little tight lipped about how they have done. Haven't seen as many post or pictures as last year this time.JP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen as many post or pictures as last year this time. I was getting accused of having too many birds last fall when I was posting pics of the hunts. on another site someone had called a CO about a pic of a guy with 12 goldeneyes... and went to their doorstep and talked about it. It was a "Classy" CO (sarcasm) and needless to say there was two people on that hunt with one person behind the camera and another behind the pile of birds! But seriously, some people should just grow up and stop assuming that everyone who hunts FOWL do not eat their birds... guess what they actually do!

Quackaddict9 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 oh on a side note, last weekend was brutal. Found a field holding good numbers of birds the night before and only shot 2. On saturday found 3 fields holding high #'s of birds, no go. So tried runnin' traffic with no luck. Hopefully this weekend will be better!
