[donell67]

huntings not bad. were getting a few. how has your hunting been?

 

[duckbum13]

my huntings been alright got 2 drake mallards and a teal the other day goose huntings been awesome i go out on some privite land out by lake lowell (if you know where thats at) and limited out 3 of us but i think there could be some more ducks but its been alright i guess

 

[donell67]

you wanna trade a river hunt for a field hunt sure would love to get on some geese. we get mostly divers and puddlers on the river. not many geese yet.

 

[duckbum13]

i might be able to work somthing out depends i guess i could talk to my buddies adn see what i can do but where do u normally go for your divers and puddlers?dont have to answer just curious

 

[donell67]

just along the snake river.

 

[duckbum13]

ill see what i can do but i have a question for you ive heard of guys losing there dogs on the snake so i have always been leary to hunt it have you every had any problems

 

[donell67]

yeah you can lose your dog real easy if your not carefull. hunting the snake with a dog and a boat is a must. when the dog heads out after a cripple. you get the boat right away and head after them. if you do that you shouldnt have a problem.

We have had pretty good luck on the Oregon-Idaho border area along the snake so far this year. Also not doing to bad up by Lovers bridge or on Strike resevior. Mostly big mallards, some widgeon also.

 

[duckbum13]

where do you go on cj strike jw ive never really tried up there all the birds seem to go into the middle of the lake but there are always alot of bird there every time ive gone. we do pretty good down river about 4-5 miles but again never really tried the lake

 

[ibhuntin]

well if you are coming from Mountain Home we hunt below lovers bridge in that area and then on farther down just above the res.
