Why not try getting to know the guys hunting the adjacent fields
explain to them that you have permission to hunt other fields around them, but dont want to mess them up and ask if you could join them for a hunt. Most decent guys would welcome you to join them. I have taken quite a few new guys with me. Its really not about shooting tons of geese.
Its about spending time with family and friends.
But on a dark note, if these guys are shooting over their limits, they may not be the type you would want to hang out with. Maybe a call to the game warden would be in order.
Some hunters out there are only in it for numbers, but im sure if you look around, you can find some decent guys to hunt with.
When I first started a couple years ago, I had a guy ask to hunt with us one afternoon after we had a pretty good morning in that field.
We said sure. Just recently he showed up in the field I was going to hunt that evening probably 10 minutes before we got there. He didnt invite us to stay and hunt with him. So, sometimes you meet good guys and sometimes you dont. I know I wont invite him back the next time.
And I dont feel bad about running traffic between the roost and the field in that situation. Talk to as many farmers as you can and get permission to hunt , you never know which fields the birds may be in from one day to the next.
Good luck, Goosehuntinman
