geese

did anyone do good this year during goose season in or around erie? i'd imagine there's got to be some good hunting up here just from what i've seen in the last two months of living here. feel free to share any stories, i was a bit miffed that i couldn't get out and hunt this year after seeing all the **** geese in the area

There are a core of guys that shoot geese consistantly.  But I think there putting some miles in and not even trying around erie.  Alot of preessure, IMO Birds are down(compared to 5 years ago) and are harder to get unless you have a lot of time on your hands and $$ for gas. 

This is the most pressure I have seen for geese since they started the early season.  I don't know how presque Isle has been.

Hummer hit it pretty well.  I mainly hunt with 4 guys, we killed 95 in 6 hunts this September, all around the Erie area.  Usually hunt Fariview/Edinboro/Waterford, this year we put more miles on the trucks than ever and hunted all over the place.  Gotta put the time and $ in if you want to kill a bunch.

Ya I know a lot of guys that hunt down that way.  There is a ton of birds but a ton of hunters as well.  Anywhere you go these days for geese, there will be a bunch of groups in the area.

that'd be better if it werent $100... i've never seen it before, but that makes everything look easier

I only hunted Ohio three times in the early season,son and I busted 23,they have a long season,and tons of feeding areas,hunt one today and keep moving,if you just want to kill geese and put up big numbers,Ohio the place, I never turn down a good goose field,but like to hunt deer and turkey,my son and I can kill tons of but why shoot 100 -200 a year,did that a few years and gave up way to much deer hunting time.
