Probably won’t be many more chances to go one. The snow goose population is so low Texas did away with their conservation season.

If you think the mallard population is way down, you need to check their numbers

Been quite a few snows in TX panhandle last 2 seasons. Didn’t see many in 23. Guys up here get excited when they see them for some reason.

Wouldn’t waste my time in Louisiana if I were you, Arkansas can be very productive, it all just depends on weather.

Personally, I’m more of a permanent spread guy in a high traffic area over chasing feeds. Snows will no show you in a heart beat and running and gunning is a pain in the arse when you smash them, a huge pain in the arse when they don’t cooperate.

Yeah, I’m surprised they’re still having them. They shoot them damn near until the summer in the dakotas and Canada.

If you hurry, you can be part of the group that kills them all. Don’t contribute to the problem.

Population peak has ended. It is time to end all conservation seasons and stop the spring hunting.

Yeah, geese don't like to come to the coast anymore. In past years I've seen a bunch in NW Colorado, in Nebraska and in Western Kansas. Here in East Texas ten years ago I heard and saw migrating snow geese and specklebellies, there is not a sound in the sky anymore. Something screwed up the migration including urban spread around Houston. Fifteen years ago I'd go south of 290 on Fry Road and before I got to 529, I'd see all sorts of waterfowl and geese working those fields. That's Bridgeland now.
