- Matt is out with his buddies Tyler, Benjamin, and Bryce. They head out to a new spot to do some duck and goose hunting. The morning started off great with snow geese showing up to the spread early. As the day progressed, the goose hunting got better. Even was able to do some duck hunting as well. The highlight of the day was Benjamin getting his first snow goose ever! It was a great day of duck and goose hunting.

I don’t even know what to say.. snows dropping into a dark spread, migrators doing it dirty from way up top, pretty sure I just fell in love
Haha it was a fun day
Where`s the Thumbs up just a count it was the same with Josh Outdoors Limit. That was a great hunt. Congratulations on Benjamin on his First Snow Goose and on his Birthday, I believe it was. Enjoyed it Matt
Thanks Chuck! It should still be there. UA-cam might be having issues again
Nothing better than a water goose hunt!!!!
They're hard to beat!
Now that is what ya call an AWESOME mixed bag hunt! So GLAD to see the kiddo get'n him some birds too!!!🤗 My hats up to you, for not worrying about the action at the blind, so you could try and retrieve your mallard! Best of luck on the next one, and God Bless all!!!!!👍🤗🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Myron! Really was a great day
@@HighPrairieSportsmen 🤗👍
I agree. Always try your best to find what you shoot to harvest. That's a true sportsmen.
Another great day afield!!
Definitely was!
The geese loved that corner. Nice shot if the blind on the shore. I like the idea of the hot hands on the shotkam. I'll have to use that idea for ice fishing on the gopro!!
Yeah they did! I bet it would work
Very cool hunting white geese, bravo, 👍💪
And the sweet baby loves to fish like his father, ❤️❤️
Thanks
Looks like fun times right there!
It was!
Yep great hunting .
Thanks!
I love how they crouch at the beginning like being 3 inches lower kept them stealthy 🤣
😂
Love the hot hands stabilizer ya added!
Custom mod haha
is there a reason you added the hot hands? about several months ago, i had sent back my shotkam to replace the internal clock because the dates and times would reset every time it would get down to certain temperatures. i live in southern california so it never gets ice freezing cold.
@@mikezdurrr It helps the battery run in cold temps. Somedays without it, the Shotkam doesn't even turn on.
Nice hunt Matt! Barry
Thanks!
Lots of action, you definitely missed out on the bulk of it. I like the heat pack on the shotkam, have you noticed it lasting longer? Let me know if you figure out how to wrap those around the GoPro...🤣
Yeah, it seems to help somewhat. Need to figure something out for the GoPro haha
That shooting was hard to watch lol. But awesome hunt! 🤘🏻
Not the best day on that aspect. Thanks!
Neat idea using hand warmer to keep shotkam warm and running. The boy was fed well with shooting experience. Could have got more geese when you were looking for your bird. 😂
Haha yep. That's how it usually works.
Nice hunt Matt... good to see Benjamin shooting... does the hand warmer on the shot cam work? Blessings
Thanks Kraig! Yep, helps it work in the cold
You should do a video on some of your favorite duck/goose recipes. I'd imagine you have quite a few with the number of birds you harvest! Great video as always. I'll give you credit, I don't think I would've had the patience to spend 2 hours looking for a downed bird. Haha
Haha thanks! I actually have a playlists of wild game recipe videos that I keep updating: ua-cam.com/play/PL2Vn7fQbYcLBgPbJXkakn24yid7iVXWbs.html
BTW, Good ethical job looking for that duck! I chased one in the boat Saturday and had a bunch of mallards land in my decoys-figures.
Thanks Brad! It always happens like that
nice first snow for young one
It was awesome seeing his excitement
@@HighPrairieSportsmen i'm sure it was
Somehoe youve got consistantly colder weather by you than i have in northern mn. Everything froze up up here last 2 days so its scouring for opem moving water now until that freezes. Headed to omaha area in 2 weeks on a hunt. May have a new cordoba 12ga with me by then for honkers
Nice! This last cold front brought in some nice temps finally.
@@HighPrairieSportsmen send some birds back up north!lol
@@eduffy4937 haha they're probably past me now haha
@@HighPrairieSportsmen damn!
Are you using the 28 or switch to the 12 with 3.5” for the geese
28 gauge for this hunt. Was anticipating more ducks. Late season I use my 12 gauge for geese
New migrants make for exciting hunting. Impressive bag and LOTS of shooting. I've never been able to find those distant swimming cripples either Matt. I guess a dog could find'em. Wonder where they go?
Thanks Paul! A dog might've been able to sniff him out. My only other guess was that he just kept swimming under the ice
@@HighPrairieSportsmen They will go for hundreds of yards on land
@@Swygard I figured. Thought they'd just sit down in the first good cover they find though
Hen mallards will run farther than drakes. Drakes often hunker down, but not always. We used to find them in another slough on the Mississippi River.
@@Swygard That's interesting.
We know you like the 28 gauge for duck what do you prefer for goose
I use my Remington Versamax 12 gauge usually
Man im a little late on seeing this video, but man i wish we could set a blind that close to the waters edge with no cover around. Our area is over pressured and the birds would completely pass that pond if they spot an Aframe like that
Generally can't get away with it. These were fresh birds to the area.
What brand of A frame blind, would you buy that brand again?
Final Approach or Alps
@@HighPrairieSportsmen thanks
ok is it just me or at 12:31 middle guys choke looks like its about to fall out?!!!
That's just how his choke sits
I remeber my sons firsst goose hes now 11 he shot it when he was 9 shot a mallard and a speck on halloween day.
Nice!
What choke do you run
Full
You need a dog. It's a huge commitment and learning curve but you'll get more recovered birds and always have someone who wants to go and can.
I'll get one someday
First
👍🏻
No pegan ni a españa
Dang
You need a dog
Doesn't fit my hunting style
The right dog will, Matt. They adapt to you. Mine will sit on a tree stand, sit on kayak, lay beside me in a layout, blind or stay in an A-frame. If it were not for my dogs, I would not care to go (as much). I hunt Goldens. But, I understand it is a commitment. My loss ratio is under 3% a year. My enjoyment is tripled when they find that lost duck. Not just because of the duck but because dog work is another pleasure in itself. I am just trying to persuade you. I know that the guys on the internet are very critical of dog work; a reason I may not have one if I had a channel. (They are also good on pheasants, quail, and grouse!)
@@Swygard Oh I'd love a dog. But I don't think I could trek in ice or waist deep water with one. When I get one, it'd be more for companionship than anything else. I also don't have any interest in training a dog, not to mention the time it takes. My garden keeps me plenty busy in the summer haha.
@@HighPrairieSportsmen Matt, I definitely understand. The ice and the water are no issue. But the time is. I just kept a puppy out of my final litter for two years for future puppy making. I have to train her and I do not have time. But she is a ringer! She carried a gwt around for five minutes at 9 weeks old. (Not by the neck, but full body in mouth). I am excited.
Over calling the geese any…… holy crap.
The migrators were only responding to lots of calling, otherwise they just kept on going south. If you let up on them they took off.
…..said from the couch 😅
