The spring snow goose season in Nebraska is the stuff of legends. We host hundreds of thousands of geese migrating north to their summer homes. Because snow geese have a such a long life span, they are overpopulated and causing massive damage to their nesting grounds in the north. To help curb the problems associated with overpopulation, several states, including Nebraska, have opened up special spring snow goose seasons. During this spring season, there is no bag limit on snow geese, electronic calls are allowed, and no magazine restrictions are in place. We hunt out of heated pit blinds, and use an extremely effective electronic calling system with over 1.800 decoys to put the geese in your face. Many of our decoys are floaters, and the birds respond well. Our clients took over a thousand birds last year. We have blinds overlooking flooded fields and in corn stubble. The padded seats and heat in our blinds make the hunt extremely comfortable. We are located just 30 miles from Mound City, Missouri, which is a federal reserve and holds 300,000 geese. 15 miles to the east of us lies Riverton, Iowa which holds another 300,000 birds. There is a huge power plant 5 miles north of our blinds which attracts thousands of geese during peak migration. Some days we will see and decoy thousands of geese in a single morning.
