2008-09-01 Bagging resident Canada geese is not so easy The Burlington Free PressMy trials and tribulations on Lake Arrowhead are rather extraordinary. A few years ago the lake was pretty much drained as Central Vermont Pubic Service was conducting some sort of maintenance on the dams it operates on the lower Lamoille River. That left giant mud flats on Arrowhead where, it seemed, every goose that hatched within 200 miles of Franklin County would lounge away the day. The first problem is that Ive pretty much always equated geese hunting with being in a field, usually a corn field, and come the first few weeks of September there just arent a whole lot of cut corn fields in Vermont. That meant a quick change of tactics was in order. www.burlingtonfreepress.com Ive seen resident Canada geese startled by decoys -- as if their little brains had not been programmed to flock. - Local News Burlington Vermont News local news headlines stories world news
