Yoda: I Hunted goose last September in Assumpink. Was not too bad. I used decoys. Next season will be Nov 12-Nov 26, Dec 16- Jan 21. I personally recommend this location: Intersection of Clarksburg robbinsville & Egglington rds (Next to the Lake). Google Map

Jex, I live in Edison. Where are you? Hey DeanZ, I know exactly where that is. That's actually the only spot I could think of to go. I believe there's a few soybean fields in that area. I would try setting up in one of them. Thanks! David __________________ NJ... Where fun comes to die!

David: I live in Old Bridge. There is a large tree in the middle of the Clarksburg robbinsville, close to Egglington (next to soybean field). You can park there and set the decoys next the water, there is a very large open field. Stay away from the soybean fields, they wil be packed with people hunting pheasants starting Nov 12.

Hey DeanZ, Would you be up for some goose hunting? Maybe we could hook up since you know the area a little better than I do. Jex, Do you have decoys and a spot in mind? David __________________ NJ... Where fun comes to die!

David: I'll be there for pheasants and chukars during Nov and Dec. For goose I'll go in Jan. The location I mentioned not too bad, even my son with a 20g was able to get a few.

Well, if we can manage to put like 4-5 dozen decoys out, between a bunch of us, then that would make a pretty good setup. David __________________ NJ... Where fun comes to die!

There is a certain way to lay out you geese decoys. I don't know how but it can't be random. __________________ "...but to protest against all hunting of game is a sign of softness of head, not soundness of heart." TR A1202 is Bad!

My cousin shot a pheasant once and could have caught it in his jacket. He put it in his jacket and felt movement all day. Figured it was sliding. Went to take it out and it bit him. It was still alive. Then again, not as bad as being knocked out by a goose. __________________ It isn't the catch or the kill that makes for a great outdoor experience but enjoying all that God has created for us.
