With our low nighttime temperatures between 0 and 32 degrees the duck hunters are freezing up on most small bodies of water. The sand dune on Potholes Reservoir are froze and some of the main lake as well. But there is still a lot of the big body of water that is ice free. Please feel free to call our tackle shop for a current ice update from 9am to 6pm daily. The phone number is (509) 346-2651 or email info@mardonresort.com

Goose numbers are very good between Moses Lake, Othello and Mattawa. On a recent Meseberg Adventures Guided Goose Hunt a group of 8 collected 31 honkers from 8-10 pounds and one lesser. Once the weather stabilizes some the Goose Hunting will only become more predictable and improve.

Walleye action off the MarDon Dock has been limited. This past week we did have a report of an overnight guest catching a 14 lb walleye.

Waterfowl hunting continues to be tough with stagnant air which builds fog. Additionally, with our unseasonably warm weather temperatures every pond or secret hole is now completely free of ice with mostly open water. These conditions are perfect to jump shoot Northern Mallards and lazy Canadian Honkers. Central Washington is covered with waterfowl from the North. As soon as our temperatures drop below freezing around the clock and we get a little wind, the big water will harbor vast numbers of quality ducks and geese.
