Here's a report copied verbatim from my local newspaper's website:
"HIGH PLAINS MALLARD MANAGEMENT UNIT: Outfitters reported fair to good hunts
for ducks on ponds and feed lots. Ducks with freezing temperatures have
congregated on warmer feed lot ponds. Over wheat and plow ground goose hunting
has been good. Snow the past few weeks has encouraged Canadas to feed and
lose some of their late-season wariness. Larger Canadas have shown recently
with freezing temperatures to the north. Snow geese have cooperated at times,
mostly with stiff winds and a low ceiling. Some runoff from snow has filled
ponds, but wet ponds remain a premium. Prospects are fair to good."
