Scouting Report

We've done some traveling the last few weekends through northern Missouri, southern Iowa, western Iowa and Eastern Nebraska. Here's what was up w/the waterfowl in the area.
9/1 Eagle Bluffs wildlife refuge Columbia MO, not a lot of action, saw a couple small groups of teal and a few small groups of wood ducks.

9/4 Western Iowa and North Western Missouri, lots of crops still flooded from this past summer.  Although the flooding is terrible, it will likely cause some good waterfowl hunting.  Most of the small farm ponds near the flooding were holding small groups of teals.  Some geese were starting to move in.

9/5 Eastern Nebraska, didn't see hardly any ducks, saw quite a few geese hitting freshly harvested corn fields.

9/13 Central Missouri, Saw several larger flocks of geese, mostly in freshly seeded areas.  Groups of about 30-50.

9/10 North Central Missouri and South Central Iowa, no ducks in sight.  Ton's of geese hitting the corn fields and the pastures.
