Canada Goose Fishing Reports (December 2024)

The 24/25 South Season Duck Opener is about to kick off with good expectations in the forecast. Think this will be another good season down here on the coast. Seeing some redheads and pintails starting to migrate into bay systems. Actually saw some Rudy ducks, teal, pintails and redheads on a recent fishing charter. According to Ducks Unlimited the 2024 waterfowl population survey showed an increase in breading ducks for the first time since 2015. On October 15 -TPWD biologists reported an increase in duck numbers also. Anyways, think it's going to be a good season down here around South Padre. We just need cold fronts to push the northern birds down to us.

We've been out in west Texas chasing cranes. Last weekend was the opener. And we put a beating on them. Everyday we're seeing more cranes show up. Wednesday we got our first flock of geese in. We open for geese this weekend and I've got a feeling this is going to be one of the goosiest season in along time.
