Umatilla is legit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m sorry. SW idaho is basically a desert with very little water outside the snake. The only reason there is a migration is the river and corn. Additionally, once good weather arrives all those spots will be frozen solid and duckless. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m not trying to be sarcastic but have you ever seen CJ Strike? It’s a giant reservoir that’s super deep with vertical high cliff lava rock walls. I’m not sure where you plan on hunting. Hagerman… unless you have 20-50K to buy into one of those clubs your only option there is the snake with no...

Worse. 3in mags hurt a lot more than 8 shot. Add the insanity of people blowing a call non stop that sound worse than a kids kazoo. Oh yeah, if birds work they’ll shoot 100 yards up. Dove fields in the IV are sooo much more pleasant. I have a place in Bruneau from when I was stationed at Mt...

Not having a boat rules out 90% of the decent spots. Tough sledding in the walk-in areas with the other 10K people. Lowell and the WMAs are cool if you like hunting 7ft from people…not exaggerating. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gross…my first thought is a dozer and a few boats loaded with cinder blocks. Doze the trees and haul them to the dam, strap them with blocks and sink them to make some legit crappie condos. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good memories…all the ponds are full. That little one on the far left is where I shot my first honker and cinnamon teal. I’m guessing the willows are a bit thicker now. I remember them starting to grow pretty bad right after ‘01 or 02’. Prior to that it was just the cockle burrs. Sent from my...

I wish I could’ve seen that. Nice pictures. I shot my first pintail in that pond in your picture. We nicknamed it “stony” because of all rocks surrounding it. I remember during a couple El Niño years that spot would hold some serious water. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was born in 1986 so unfortunately I never got to hunt when the lake reopened and only heard the good stories of geese in Potato fields and wigeon and pintail thick like mosquitoes from my dad. I do remember that you could setup the day before (10 am) and cost was $25 when the Socins ran it...

I can remember it happening as soon as the Mendenhalls leased it from VID. There was a kid that lived by the dam that used to do it all the time. I put his stuff in a pile one Friday morning, he showed up threw a fit and called Frank. He came out and let the kid stay in the spot but he did let...

I haven’t hunted Henshaw in 20 years but just wondering if it’s still the same protocol and a race to get your spot or is there designated sites you get drawn to hunt. I’m up to speed on the price increase and drawing for a spot to get on the hunt list. Just wondering about the freelance aspect...

Original 390 I started hunting with 30 years ago, added a facelift and a few extras. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The coldest place to hunt ducks in SoCal looks green. Good to see ducks still being shot there. Do you know if they will allow hunting during the military hunt days? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s a nice surprise from Henshaw. I have never seen I any of those there. I’m currently stationed in the south so BW are really common and cinnamons are considered unicorns. It’s funny because I grew up taking them for granted. I will probably end up hunting wister and going to Henshaw just...

So it’s been close to 15 years since I’ve hunted in SoCal but growing up I spent every chance I could at Henshaw. These would have made life way easier and a game changer with the walk in hunts. While we are on the topic, what’s the status of the joint? I’m thinking about making a trip back to...
