Spoonies up 100% in SoCal?

Saw this in the latest CWA mag season report. The mighty spoon!

 

[TRICER]

No shame in my Spoon game.

They sure weren't many on Wister....Or at least, it seemed that way.

Now the SS Club....Different story.....

Yep Steve.. I didn't score many spoondogs last year either. Not in the top 3 at Wister but apparently a different story at SJ. Wish I had club connections...

Wow. Surprised to see that SJ beat Mendota in Cinnamons. It is quite possible that is the case every season, but I just was not aware.

 

[Aeon]

the Lcra spoon numbers were down for the year. Massive jump in cotton tops and teal last year. Every year is different

Is what I am seeing on that chart accurate. Sonny Bono only shot 97 snows?

Mike,

Sounds about right....With Elmore eliminating their hunt program and Unit 1 with food up the kazoo....There's little reason for whites to come over there or Wister.

Looks like the Spoons hung out at Kern.

Sad to see such a good area turned into what it is now. Cannot compete with the food on Unit1

 

[Dorks]

no snow goose hatch ,killed it

 

[stikbrandon]

Didn’t see 1 spooner at the American river, just mud ducks and green heads.

Hummm...pins up 12% statewide and 40% in So. Calif. yet they knocked the limit down to 1 this coming season.

Totally ridiculous....They can't control Mother Nature or the farming practices in Canada....So, they come up with a model that has zero impact on the overall numbers of pintail....The limit should be 7 just like most other ducks.

Restrictions have been implemented on canvasbacks & redheads since I started hunting waterfowl (1969)....There's no more of either species today than there ever was....Hunting has little, to no effect on overall numbers....It's been proven time and again that hunting is compensatory.

Ouch.. ya dang it...
