Well, I have to admit that the cold weather had me convinced that my waterfowl season was over. But then a good buddy called me up and asked what I was doing this Saturday (dec 4th). Boy was I happy he did call me. We had a great little shoot in a snow covered canola field. Yes, you read that right, canola. This guy can setup in a field of canola and get them to stray from that flyway and come check us out. I never would have tried it this way, but you can't argue with results. Only had my dog as a retriever and the deep snow made it hard work for her. We ran the legs right off her. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af263/RoscoeT/hunting%20with%20dogs/dec2010_goose_hunt001.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af263/RoscoeT/hunting%20with%20dogs/dec2010_goose_hunt0008.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1014.photobucket.com/albums/af263/RoscoeT/hunting%20with%20dogs/dec2010_goose_hunt011.jpg) [video:youtube]HNQKR7zqfQ4[/video] Happy Hunting!

Here I sit with a herniated back disc unable to hunt this year and watching your vid. sure was a joy. Thanks for posting it. Did I detect a grin on her face? Tired but happy dog! Great hunt.
Thanks

What area were you hunting? I go out to southern Sask (Lucky Lake) every year for the family goose/duck hunt.
I'm planning a spring hunt around Marshall Sask.

Roscoe, if you need an extra fella to go with, I volunteer! I have tried in years past, but have not been sucessful. Looks like a nice spot!

Do the geese stay there all winter?
Do you have open water around?
What keeps them there this late?
