Has anyone here gone goose hunting at Assumpink? Specifically on any of the field? I'd like to go out but don't know where to go.
Thanks, David __________________ NJ... Where fun comes to die!

Kris,
You know what's funny is... Quote: neither do I. I'll be buying some in the very near future. I've just got my blind and a goose call.
I don't have any decoys Now I just have to find out where to go??? Send me an e-mail at diacobone@us.loreal.com with a # I can reach you at. We'll work out the details. David __________________ NJ... Where fun comes to die!

yoda - let me check the seasons dates... I don't think we can start whacking Canada geese again until November.
Also I have all of the following (except decoys): - steel shot - NJ stamp - Federal stamp - HIP number __________________ |

Drag,
Those are the easy things to get. LOL. The big $ items are the decoys & blind. And of course, a piece of property is not easy to get. David __________________ NJ... Where fun comes to die!

Thats the tough part. The place I used to hunt is now townehomes.
We need a cornfield, or a golf course. __________________ "...but to protest against all hunting of game is a sign of softness of head, not soundness of heart."

Why can't we hunt Assumpink?
The fields where the UBNJ shoot was would be ideal. __________________ "...but to protest against all hunting of game is a sign of softness of head, not soundness of heart."

Season starts Nov. 12th for the northern zone.
Then there is a special winter season way up north. __________________ |

Grass, corn, soybean, or something else? And the big question is, do geese visit them? One last question, where are these fields? David __________________ NJ... Where fun comes to die!

mack/mpemt24,
There's one huge problem with that area... it's like 2hrs from my house. And I know for Paul it'll be almost 3hrs. That's why I asked about Assumpink. BobR, What time do the upland hunters usually begin? If it's like 9am, goose hunting is usually done by then. And hopefully if we're shooting, the upland guys won't enter the fields.

Yoda, thats fine. If you are planning on stocked WMA's they will start at sunrise. __________________ It isn't the catch or the kill that makes for a great outdoor experience but enjoying all that God has created for us.

That stinks. Maybe I'll have to do a weekday goose hunt. Do you think the upland guys go out then? I figure it'll be much less if any.

| Hey Yoda, where are you located? I just moved to Ocean County from Sussex two months ago and I'm looking for someone to go goose hunting with, but I'm not to familiar with the area here. If you're down this way let me know and we could possibly get together for some scouting and goose hunting. And on the Old Mine Road topic, a few of my friends and I have a few spots right on the Delaware that we set out decoys for hunting geese. | ||
