I'm on the look out for sure without a doubt. Looking into cazan lake area chicot.

Okay. This is my input. I'm a goose hunter. And I've guided and hunted strictly for specks for a while.

The water makes a HUGE difference. Maybe not on the perfect condition days, but on the blue bird, no wind, nothing flying kind of days... 0 inches of water is the ticket.

Next is the calling. Calling can totally define the way a goose hunt will turn out. You may have a descent caller that kills singles and doubles. Then you could have an excellent caller who can call groups of 20-200 in the decoys.

Concealment is a great deal of it. You need to be covered extremely well to kill specks on a consistent basis. Also being concealed and good calling will allow you to kill less juvies and more generals.

Here's some photos of my spread right now. I killed a limit on it this morning.

I like a little water for geese. I've had my best speck hunts in stubble with a little water.

Straight gold!!! Totally wish I was older to be in a class with really good hunters. My class has good ones but hard to get friends to grip this concept. Ex: one told me "dude you really think them birds can see me standing up this early?" 700am well f*** yea they find food and elude predators in the dark of the night. Because of this sight this tr I finally found good ppl accompanied by good hunt ethics and we murdered ducks and geese together. You would think by me going solo and limiting n then they go, can't call don't hide stand over brush on seat and scratch they would get the hunt n listen. Nope they blame me for hunting weekdays. Well I do that so I don't have to mess with Thier S*** on weekends.

I like that marsh mop! Field goldens are a dying breed.

A small flooded area surrounded by a bunch of dry fields will usually spook geese and they will go around it. If you are hunting in a large flooded area, water doesn't bother them. Some days it is easy, other days the best can't make specks finish. The old dry one side and water on the other is not the best. I'm not saying you can't kill specks in that situation. If I had my choice, I would take 3-4 inches of water in a large area around me.
