Shoot them all. They can wipe out a wheat field in short order!

 And they taste great, unlike every other waterfowl on the planet. They usually winter some at my place but I never got a shot. Congrats.

Bet this weather makes them fly closer to ground! I use to knock on doors up north of Big Spring and hunt them.

How did you guys hunt them? Did you use decoys or just catch them flying low somewhere?

Had decoys out but we're lucky enough to have a ravine that they were flying over so we would just try to get in their flight path. We got out there kinda late to get the decoys in a good spot.

Fun to hunt though shot a bunch of them growning up, best way we ever found to eat it was jerky, sounds nuts but it was good

They are a lot of birds this year, hopefully this cold won't push them out.
