So many years ago I did a snow goose hunt in the "rainwater basin" in Nebraska. We had a blast with a group of young kids. I am not sure why I haven't made a trip back since (i'm maybe just plain stupid).
Anyway I'm on a farm call this morning and I hear that familiar sound..... look up and it's a flock of snows. Many more flocks followed as they headed north to Minnesota. This is an unusual sight here in northeast Iowa. We usually do not see them here. The closest is southern Illinois or western Iowa.
Anyone on this board hunt them in the spring?? Do you use calls and decoys or ambush ponds. I hear about guys using "cow decoys" and saying it's a blast. Oh, how I miss that trip.
Some photos from long ago:
good luck to all
