I got out Saturday and tried out the owl decoy. It worked really well but the birds in that spot have wised up to my call so I moved to another field that the farmer had just spread manure on and they just wanted to be there really badly. I would like to think I had something to do with it but I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. Plus it was the first day I hunted all day so that helped. Goose opens tomorrow so I won't be chasing crows anymore. hope your season shapes up well fellas.

OK so i lied about not shooting anymore crows. i have been out a few times for Geese but i can't resist when one goes by. hehe i haven't brought my camera along so no crows for the contest but they're still dead which helps out the local waterfowl. One tip, for you guys, last crow i shot i was tossing into the brush behind my goose blind and another crow saw his buddy go crashing into the trees and got very upset. so upset in fact that he just couldn't leave me alone. so i shot him, in self-defense of course. from now on i'm going to keep a dead one or 2 in the blind and toss them into the "fight". i'll let you all know how this works in the future.

It is interesting seeing them go nuts when they see another dead crow. I have not been out lately, too busy with school, church, and soccer. I might get out today, but I'm not sure because I still have a lot to do to prepare for archery season. Good luck with those geese!

Thanks Troupro, I did okay on the geese. Went out 4 days and ended up with 5 for the season. They won't come in like Crows which is disapointing. Our season ends the 25th and I'm working the next 3 days so unless I start feeling "ill" my goose season is done. Take Trout, care and get yourself some crows. EDIT- I did come down with some unknown "illness" and ended up getting 3 more geese the last day of the season ;D ;D ;D
