There is an increase for geese but only in the early goose season and only for Canadian/crackle geese in some WMU. READ and UNDERSTAND the regs.

Are the crackle geese the ones from the Oshawa parks? Lol.

I would think that 90% of geese are Canadian, but I'm 100% sure that not all are Canada Geese, READ AND UNDERSTAND goose names!

Sorry couldn't help myself, loooong day......

thy had a double limit in the really gooses hunt in march 10 birds per hunter ,,ti should have been a unlimited hunt as the guys that did put in the effert to get on the city birds had some great shoots ,we got on a field and shot 50 birds with 5 guys and were done by noon ,we could have kept shooting all day and killed hundreds if thy would let us ,,,The idea of this hunt is to clean up some of the birds that do not leave for the winter ,,it is hard enough to get a good field close to the city were the birds are feeding so when it does work out thy should let the guys get the job done ,,we had birds landing beside the truck as we were loading the decoys up ,,


sorry for the side track ,,you have to look at were you are hunting and read the regs for your unit as thy are not all the same as far as opening days and limits ..Dutch

The limits are fine as they are however if more birds need to be culled why not share the wealth and invite more guns to the party?

Best post...do not go hunting or fishing without understand the regs. Example, limits for fish are easy to understand, but you also have read the exceptions for your area. They will describe fish sanctuaries, not fishing areas.ect.ect. Not knowing the regs is no excuse, you will be fined.

You are correct. Not all geese are Canadian. Some are in fact American or even Mexican.
Would depend on where they were born/hatched.
Cracking geese are really just a Sub-species of Canada Geese.

Sorry.....I believed......

Canada Goose, Dark Goose, Honker (not Canadian Goose)

Cackling Goose or Cacklers (not Cracking or Crackle Goose)

If your giving advice I don't think you'll find any limits for any of these weird geese that you mentioned.

But I didn't read the regs yet this year yet so I'll consider myself schooled ��
