I am a student at the University of Idaho, where are some nearby good places to duck hunt? Where can I find out more information about public/private locations?
Answer:
Unfortunately, the Clearwater Region is not well known for its waterfowl hunting. Access is limited due to private property but some field hunting and jump shooting of regional streams/ponds is available during migration with landowner permission. Scouting is the key for success for both birds and landowners willing to allow access. I'd suggest you watch birds from the U of I dairy ponds (behind WinCo) to see where they are feeding and try to gain permission from those landowners who have birds present. Good Luck!
