Snow Goose Hunting Reports

Congrats to Hunter on a nice pair of snow geese. Today hunting was average high field shot 23 and low shot 11. The flight tonight was very impressive but the birds were really high with no wind. The next couple days the wind will be a lot stronger so the birds should be lower to …

Today the wind blew pretty hard. Too much wind can be just as bad as not enough. Ideal wind is about 10-15 mph. Curt hunted a group today and they had a good day shooting 22 snow geese. We set another spread today. While setting the snow goose spread we had plenty of snow geese … [Read More]

Yesterday we set spreads and unpacked gear at the lodge in Nebraska. I went to the lake in the middle of the day to see how many birds where there. I was glad to see a good sized raft of snow geese. Using google maps measuring tool I estimate the size to be 1.3 miles long … [Read More]

Nebraska snow goose hunting was good yesterday. Hunters shot birds in the morning but afternoon was slow. They ended the day with 25 snow geese.

Yesterday all of the fields quit hunting around noon. We were able to pull all of the decoys and load them. Monday we will organize everything and Tuesday we will head for Nebraska. The last day the four fields shot 19, 13, 9, & 4. Hunting was a little slow side.

Hunting was good today. We had two groups out. One group of snow goose hunters shot 35 and the other 28 with a nice trophy yellow neck collared ross goose. Bird pour back from the north today and flew out very high tonight.

Another good day in Arkansas hunting snows. High field was 127 and low was 8. We didn’t see much of a migration even with the strong south wind. Hopefully tomorrow the wind will not blow so much and the geese will move a little more. Too much wind is just as bad as no wind. … [Read More]

Great day in the snow goose field. High field shot 111 snow geese with a banded blue goose. Second high field shot 108 with a banded blue. Low field shot 18. Very good hunting today. The decoying snow geese were mainly out of high migrating flocks. What a difference a few days make.

Our first full day of hunting in Nebraska for snow geese was good. Up North Outdoors snow goose guides Curt and Cody with 2 hunters shot 60 snows. One was a ross goose banded in 2005 as an adult. Curt say there is a lot of birds in the area. Hopefully this good hunting will … [Read More]

Snow geese pushed north today. All of the fields saw plenty of birds. Some fields had birds that would work while others just watched the migrating flock fly right by. There are lots of birds flying over the house in the dark as I type. High field was 37 snow geese. Our Nebraska group shot …

When snow goose hunting you just never know what is going to happen. Some of my best hunts are on days when I thought the hunting would not be that good. Today was one of those days. Arkansas has been abnormally slow hunting for us this year. Today was not one of those days. There … [Read More]

Today was a little better. The morning had a hazy fog which helped. High field shot 37. Low field shot a zero. There was two fields that didn’t see much. The field that shot 18 birds got a bonus band. Nothing too special about this banded birds. It was banded in July in Northwest Territories. … [Read More]

Today 11 was high field. The rain held off until afternoon. I got an call from on old boy that live near the refuge in Nebraska. His guess was there is 700,000 to 800,000 snow geese there right now. He may be right or wrong on that number but he has watched the birds there … [Read More]

Today had similar results to the other days we have had the last week. High field was 15. The rest in single digits. We did see birds coming from the north ahead of the storm. Some fields saw more than others. One field had birds circling all day but would bail on them at 100 … [Read More]

Today’s results are similar to the last weeks. High field was 22 followed closely by a 21. The other 5 fields saw and shot very few snow geese. I thought hard about this all afternoon and my gut is telling me to move to Nebraska. So the following is what I would like to do… … [Read More]
