how are the crops?

The Rooster

New member
Can anyone tell me the status of the crops around Milford, and Marysville. Also if anyone has any bird reports about those area, it would be a big help. Happy hunting to everyone.
 
We hunted around Marysville opening weekend and there werent all that many crops left in the field. I would be surprised if there was much to speak of left. We hunted private ground and saw quite a few roosters and about 5 coveys of quail each with close to 20 birds in them.

Good luck when u head out
 
Thank you for the info.

Thanks for that info NElabaholic, I am scratching at the walls just to get out in those fields. I move from Ft. Riley this summer to Louisiana, and it is just killing me that I cant bird hunt like I use to. Well thanks again, and good luck to you.
 
Rooster, Where in La. are you living? I, too have hunted the promised lands of Kansas. Until I can get back, I fill my time chasing woodcock. There is a pretty good population of timberdoodles down here if we get some cold weather. I know its not a rooster , but what else are you going to do. Then again, Kansas doesn't have redfish and speckeled trout.
 
I am stationed at Ft. Polk. And you are right about the fishing. Where are you in LA? I have never hunted woodcock but I am always up for anything. As long as the wife lets me go play. If you have the time I would like to know the 5 w's on hunting woodcocks. Hope to talk to you again, and have a good one.
 
I am in Slidell, about 30 miles north of New Orleans. The closest place I hunt woodcock is in the Atchafalaya Basin near the town of Krotz Springs. They inhabit places a rabbit won't go in the bottomland swamps. They like wet briar patches. Its best to have a pointing dog or you won't likely find any. We've got that taken care of. Our season is from DEc. 18 - jan. 31. We usually wait till the end of the season to hunt Krotz Springs. Would be honored to treat a military man to a hunt. I'll keep your name and pm you when we go.:thumbsup:
 
I know just where you are. My mother is from New Orleans, and I think that I might have family over there by you. Also I would love to go hunting sometime. The only problem I would have is that I work 6 days a week and I dont get to see my family really much. But if the wife aka (The War Department) says I can play then I will be there with bells on.
