Eagle lake /Katy area
Very wet conditions did make it hard to hunt the 1st few days.Once we figured out the geese we pounded are limits daily.90% of the fields have standing water from ankle deap up to the knee.
We stayed about 300 yards down wind of the roosting geese set up decoys 300-400 hundred (A MUST)Pounded every incomming flock.The last few days dark geese season closed so we were limited on 20 snows 3 punk canadians and 5 ducks
The duck hunting was great the first 45 minutes every morning.Guessing any where from 1,000-5,000 pintails every morning limit being 1.We shot only 1 mallard during the trip and that was the only 1 we saw.
If your planning a trip 1 thing i recommend is just plan on 2 boxes of ammo every day.Bring every thing you own for clothes from warm weather hunting to mid 20 degree hunting wet and dry conditions.
I think this next week the season changes to no limit on snows and you can use electronic callers.I wanted to stay for this hunt but figured 2 boxes of ammo only got me my limits by 9 am or so what would i need for a full day of action no limits hmmm my guess would be some none hunters wallet
For the do-it yourself hunters small white bags on a stick is the ticket.1 decoy bag holds about 400.Just remember to hunt a good 30 yards down wind if using the bags in windy condtions.The geese can hear the bags and flare off about 25-30 yards down wind
