The field I have permission to hunt just happens to be the only field I have not seen geese going to this fall. It is right across the road from a preserve and should be a prime location but the birds all get off of the water and drift to the side of my setup. I currently only have 18 shell decoys setup. Should I increase my spread or just go to pass shooting?
Hey thanks, thats what I thought. I am meeting a guy tonight to buy some of his used Big foots. He also has some herters fb's. Are they any good and what price should I pay for the BF and Herters used??
Are you by yourself when you go? How many people are calling? The more the marrier. Be loud and obnoxious with your call. If you are calling into a wind it is hard to get the sound to them. A combo of a bigger spread, flagging, and calling and it should be raining geese.
***side note***
Where are you at in NE? I am from Omaha origingally and just move out to CO last year. We would hunt up in Columbus alot right off of the Platte.
I buy new BFs after the season ends for about $18 a piece. But before the season used go for $18-20 as the new ones retail for $25. Timing is eveything. Something for everybody to remember, buy your decoys after they go on sale about 2/3 to 3/4 through the season and save $ nothing like paying $210 a dz vs $300
So Husker how has it been going the last couple of weeks with running traffic on the Honks?
