On opening day of the 2022 early goose season here in Virginia we kicked things off by heading out to the river to do some kayak jump shooting. This style of goose hunting allows us to cover a lot of water, do some fishing, and scout some spots out for duck season, all while hunting geese. It's typically an easy going hunt but between the incredible numbers of geese we saw and a flipped kayak, things got pretty chaotic throughout the morning. We were still able to finish up the day with a few limits of honkers and plenty of funny memories to look back on. Hope you enjoy!

Thanks Caleb! I really appreciate it! One day a duck lease would be nice to do some habitat management on but I'm perfectly happy sticking to the public land and private permission stuff for now!

I enjoy your videos and the example you set for others (picking up empty shells, taking ethical shots, searching hard for downed game, etc). Shooting from a seated position on a kayak in the current can be tough, but looks like you guys managed that pretty well! In the video, you mentioned struggling to find your lead. From looking at the shot cam footage on some of the missed shots, it looks like you are slowing your swing down as you pull the trigger. I’ve struggled in that area and I’ve seen an improvement in both my shooting percentage and quality of hits by really emphasizing “swinging through the shot.” Doing that really helps to get that shot string where it needed, out in front of the birds. I’m no expert, just something that helped me and could possibly help others too.

I just ran across your channel about a month ago- great stuff! I used to hunt ducks and geese fairly frequently on the Pamunkey in King William, but I haven't had access to that property in years. I won the lottery drawing for the hunt at Hog Island WMA this year (great place, BTW), and I've gotten the bug to start waterfowl hunting again, but you just about need a law degree to hunt east of 95 what with all the blind laws, so I'm thinking out places I could try west of there, and your videos are giving me lots of ideas.

Man the first time I shot out of a pirogue down the bayou I thought I was gonna flip, my cajun buddies stand up in them and shoot. Flipping it sucks though but makes for a great hunting story. That Affinity 3 should be able to take on some water and be fine. You could even make a video about that. But floating down rapids shooting birds is like some sort of magical mystery tour lol, definitely not the kind of hunting style you can do here but it looks awesome.

Haha them folks down in LA sure are some wild ones. I can't imagine shooting out of my kayak while standing up, almost 100% certain that I would end up in the water.

Man, how do water rights work in VA? Are all rivers public? How do you know where it's legal to kayak and shoot?

All rivers in the USA are public but you just have to read where you are allowed to shoot at because every state has different rules and laws so go ask you're local fish and game

In VA all the rivers are public, unless there's a kings grant which is a pretty complicated topic. Only on navigable or tidal rivers is the bottom underneath the water public too, if the river/creek is deemed unnavigable then the land underneath the water is owned by the properties on either side of the water. For shooting you just have to check to make sure you're not in city limits or a refuge

I don’t think you’ll find any guides for this style of hunting. Best bet would be to go on a guided smallmouth trip to get familiar with the river!

In my kayak it either floats or has a leash. When I duck hunt I have a leash on my paddle, gun and blind bag. I hunt florida marsh. Diving for a gun may be inadvisable as the lizards can get big.

I can definitely see them being a necessity down there. I should have more of them but always seem to end up going into the season with just one
