Got my first band on opening day off a drake woodie, banded this year 15 minutes from the marsh I hunt. Taken about 3 dozen ducks since and haven't seen another!

not many this year, have not been hunting geese as much as past years. I generally bat about 1 in 200 on honkers.
Not a band to be had this season for me, on ducks or geese.
One band from a goose banded in Puvirnituq in northern Quebec and one band from a duck banded locally so far this season.
So there Red.....Mr. Knowitall..........HAQuote:

I got my first this year! After 4 years, came out of central michigan! I expected a local bird, my buddy got one same field 2 years ago that was banded 5 miles from there!
My partner picked up a $100 reward band
Sweet!! Where was it taken?
We recently shot 2 James Bay geese. Up to 232 honkers this year and 5 bands. Did shot a banded woodduck drake from south Carolina not a typical band had a guys name and phone number on it. Guess he rooms a oyster farm and bands some birds on the farm
3 goose bands and a duck band all out of the sarnia area this year
