Conservation goose hunt...

We are going on our second in Feb. We are going just outside of Katy, Texas. Last year we went around Johnson's Bayou, LA. It was a blast (literally). Bring LOTS of shells. We went through 2 to 3 boxes each. That whole no plug thing is nice

Go to the LSU lakes... that's the only geese I see around BR.

If I had a recorder I could do it at my place.. Have rags and such but I am not spending $800 on a recorder to go kill snows and blues..

comeaux, where do you hunt?

i know someone who hunts out of ville platte. i'll have to look into that. thanks.

Go prepared with plenty of shells but don't assume you're going to stack them like you see in the youtube vids and DVDs. Contrary to what a lot of folks think, snows & blues are VERY smart, especially late in the season like this. Yes you may nearly melt your barrel on them, but there's a similarly likely chance you'll only shoot a few. It'll largely depend on the weather you get the day of the hunt and how hot the field is. Pray for WIND and low ceiling. Know a lot of folks who've gone jacked up and come home disappointed. One thing's for sure, when they're coming into a big spread and an e-caller it's unreal. I've had them land and walking around me before the shot was called, best of luck!

You can get rags pretty cheap online through Rogers sporting goods or Mack's, etc. Rags are good but full bodies or 5/8's shells are much better, but much more $$$. Check the LDWF website for the exact dates but it goes into March. May as well give it a try if you've got the birds
