KRUGER FARMS CERTIFIED ELITE GUIDE
Huntthenorth.com review of our SPRING SNOW GOOSE HUNTING services
First Flight Finishers specializing in MO, MN, and SD SPRING SNOW GOOSE HUNTS. Our South Dakota Spring Snow goose spreads total 1000 to over 2,000 decoys. The number of decoys depends on the migration. We run all Sillosock decoys. Also, rotary machines, flyers, top notch ecallers, and other electronics at the guides discretion.
"First Flight Finishers offers guided spring snow goose hunts starting at the end of February in Mound City Missouri around the Squaw Creek NWR and then following the birds north into South Dakota and Southwestern Minnesota into mid April. Outfitter Adam Johnson has been successfully guiding spring snow goose hunters for over
15 years now and has the experience and dedication to make sure you have a quality hunt. Adam has well over 40,000 acres of private property at his disposal in these areas to assure you will be hunting fresh fields full of geese on your hunt.
During your hunt you can expect to hunt over a spread of 2,000+ decoys. The spread will consist of custom UV painted Sillosock
snow and blue goose decoys. Adam has invested countless hours and dollars into his decoy spreads. He also has the finest electronic callers and layout blinds to make your hunt as comfortable as possible. A spring hunt with First Flight Finishers will be a most memorable hunting experience!" HTN
Items you need to bring- Non-toxic shotgun shells (preferably 3” steel 2 shot or BB’s), camo clothing, facemask, waterproof boots. Waders are not necessary but nice if muddy. Also, willingness to help with the decoy spread. We require anyone who is able to help.
Bird Cleaning- Bird cleaning is the hunter's responsibility. The law requires a wing needs to remain attached. We have bird cleaning for a fee ($3/bird) if needed. Storage of the cleaned birds is the hunter's responsibility (most use large coolers).
Payment- One person in your group needs to be the contact person (email address & cell phone number needed). They will be the one sending me payment and receiving any other communications concerning the hunt. A deposit of 50% is due within 2 weeks of booking your hunt. Deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable (if a hunter cannot make the trip it is acceptable to replace them with someone else as long as the party size remains the same). If you can't make the hunt and can't find a replacement you forfeit the deposit. The 2nd half of the payment is due the morning before your first days hunt. If we have to cancel the hunt the deposits will be applied to a future hunt during the remainder of the current or next years season. The deposit portion of your hunt can be paid with a personal check, money order, or credit card via paypal.com. For the 2nd half of payment WE ONLY ACCEPT CASH or money order (NO PERSONAL OR COMPANY CHECKS) upon arrival unless you specifically talk to me. When booking a snow goose hunt for two or more days your deposit will be for the last day.
WE HUNT SPRING SNOW GEESE FROM 1/2 hr before sunrise to 1/2 hr after sunset (legal shooting time) or the guides discretion with a short lunch break with the exception of your last day on which you hunt until noon. This allows most hunters the opportunity to drive or catch a return flight home yet that day. Your contact person should call John or I a few days prior to leaving for the hunt.
There has been a lot of spring snow goose hunting hype. From our picture gallery you can se we have many truly amazing days in the field each year. These are the above average days and show the potential. Daily harvests in the teens and twenties are considered average hunts. We are highly successful but we don't guarantee birds. Slow days are a part of hunting and may occur. These are fair chase hunts for wild migrating birds. Things change DAILY and we make decisions day by day. When you book a hunt with us you are paying for access to our fields, use of top notch equipment, and potential.
