We saw quite a bit in the first 3 days - the rest has been about 0.
Scratched 7 outta the sky between Wed and Thur. Been out every day since and see the occasional single - a long ways out. Wonder if it's the weather...

Well - I prefer some weather. I am no expert on geese/ducks but we always did better with weather. Maybe it's just the cold front and not actually the rain?

The most important thing in early goose season is.... You must be between the roost and feed areas and preferably hunting the feed area itself !
The opening morning my group got 6 birds. That night we got 1 more. The 3rd day we hunted a new field the birds were using. The group was not shooting well that morning. Should have had our limit the first 20 minutes. The birds came faster than I could reload ! After 4 trips 2 morning and 2 night(1 night we got skunked) hunts got 18 birds so far. Took a couple days off to let the birds calm down. Might go in a morning or 2.
BTW...I like over cast days the best w/alittle wind . Keeps the shine off the decoys!
I'm no expert just my 2 cents.
Good luck !
