Kayak Jump Shooting On Skinny Water | Goose Hunting 2022

Спорт

Early season goose hunting has kicked off up north but for this hunt we're taking it back to some late season kayak jump shooting that I did with Drew. The duck and goose hunting in Virginia started off pretty good in 2022 due to a couple cold snaps that locked up swamps and other feeding areas. We decided to take advantage of the cold weather by floating down a skinny creek in our kayaks in the hope of finding groups of birds hanging out on the flowing water. We saw lots of birds, missed some opportunities, and got some good jumps too. Hope you enjoy!
