Any river hunting

[Fishhappy1986]

curious about hunting on rivers or streams not too far out of the way of the cities? My boat isn't too stable so trying to find a good river so I could hunt from shore and just use the boat to set up and get birds. Any info would be great.

Only a few more weeks!!!!!

what size boat and motor? I know guys put in on the Mississippi in Elk River by Hwy 101, but you need a decent rig. Not sure if they head up or down stream, but I guess they do pretty good for ducks and geese.

A 14ft with a 8 horse, it's fine if you're sitting but standing and shooting isn't very easy. thats why it would be nice to be able to hunt from shore and not have to use the boat other than retreiving birds/dekes.

I think that there is a no hunting rule from ostego to dayton on the mississippi try heading up to the becker or clearwater area try and find an island to set up on.

Whre would you put in then somwhere around that area. looking for a public accesss so I can go scouting a week or two before the season.

just west of becker its called snuffy's landing or under the bridge in clearwater acually Ithink the landing is on the west side of the bridge

You know how much pressure it recieves and do you think my boat can handle it?
