Buddy in Fargo ND says mild winter has most birds still in state so it should be a bumper crop his year but will still need ice/snow to move them south. Plenty of water in Nodak also, now if I can make some chedda before oct 15 I might get up there this year.

Northwest LA hunters actually caused the change from what I gathered at the Commission meeting. Our Zone ( Coastal) should basically be the same as the old West. Open on 11/10 and close on 1/18 with a split after Thanksgiving.
