Yeah its a management season, you know, to keep the numbers down.

I agree it's good to keep the numbers down. I just don't agree with jumping and roost busting

#1. not all water hunting is roost busting.

#2. field hunting can bust a roost. Seen it happen.

#3. as long as YWD is going to be held b#tching about a minimal number of guys water hunting geese is pretty much a joke.

That's how I hunt geese, bust the roost and kill the birds, f$&k the rest.
Ask Al how to successfully nest wood ducks, see you next season.

I'm interested in hearing others definition of roost busting. The only time I ever even think twice about hunting geese over water is late in the season, when most sloughs are froze but theres one or two around packed with geese, and then only if there's a week or two left in the season.
