anyone hunt geese/ducks near gaylord, henderson area


Recommended Posts

There is a public slough in Green Isle. I talked to a couple of guys who hunted it opening day and they got 10..that was with letting all the teal go. They did mention that there were plenty of other hunting it but theat can be expected for opening day.

I would plan on it vs. waiting for something to happen. If you knock one down you're going to want to get on it right away. Assuming you have waders, stuff the boat in the cattails and stand next to it (of course, it isn't bright yellow or anything?).

If you are setting out decoys your best chance should be at decoying birds, hopefully dead in decoys. A quick wade and your back in the 'blind'.

When there, you need to stick your nose into the breast feathers and take a HUGE whif... you'll be hooked.

We took the jet boat out on the river tonight in henderson looking for ducks. We had them pinned down until the river went way up. Now we might get the waders out and jump some small ponds and cricks tomorrow.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
