Decoys are prohibited on all game management areas from one hour after sunset until midnight of each day Decoys are considered removed from an area if they are in a boat or other. Myself, camolife, and too tall teamed up for a quick field hunt this evening just as sunset was fast approaching. Container at an approved access site Special regulations regarding the use of decoys on parts of the mississippi river are described below. Some people dont know what time sunset is, and they just go out and shoot till they can't see
If its set at 1 or 2 pm for all season, it is easier to remember that each time a hunter goes out Those hunters wont be out when its most important for birds to go to their resting/roosting areas. That we can shoot a half hour before sunset, but not the half hour after I can see just as much in the half hour after than the half hour before So what is the reasoning behind this To give the birds more rest, and if that is the case, whats 30 more min.
Have a friend that bought a 40 of timber and looking for input on what to get Would like at least one to be able to send pictures to the phone. Nice south breezes and ground was thawed Babysat the decoys for 7 hours and never saw a snow goose Tons of canada geese, white fronts way up high but not a single snow goose The best fishing seems to be right at dawn to an hour after or right at sunset
Catfish should be biting on cutbait or stinkbait Fish the last hour of sunlight to an hour after sunset, or, during the day, on a windward side of the lake. I do my best typically right before or right after sunset with crankbaits If i'm fishing mid day i look for either a deep hole, or brush piles to provide some shade. The iowa department of natural resources issues a weekly fishing report on thursdays in an effort to provide the latest information heading into the weekend The weekly fishing report is compiled from information gathered from local bait shops, angler creel surveys, and county and state parks staff
