This past season a close friend, my son, and I decided to do some early season hunting in Grand Prairie, Alberta with the Eagles Lake gang. This proved to be a great idea! We shot more ducks and geese in 3 days than I did the entire rest of the season! We hunted in late September and the conditions were ideal. Not too cold, not too hot, but just right. There was plenty of variety with different species of both ducks and geese. We hunted both morning and evening hunts on all days and never hunted the same place twice. Bring plenty of ammunition, there will be no shortage of opportunity. As per their routine, the Eagle Lakes crew had everything pre-scouted and there was no sitting on your hands waiting. The country is very beautiful and interesting. The locals are friendly and the dinning opportunities more than adequate (great local steak house). All said, this was one of the most enjoyable and relaxing hunting outings I've experienced. What a great way to get things fired up for the year! There is nothing a waterfowl hunter likes better than wide open country full of naïve ducks and geese. Do this thing and enjoy! Good hunting
