Byron Walker Waterfowl Report -
| Waterfowl numbers | |
| Water level | Kingman State Lake is still almost 40 inches low. There is limited water in the huntable portion of the lake. There is no water coming in from the west drainage, thus there is no water in the marshes west and north of the lake at this time. It will take significant rain in the drainage or leaf drop to get water flowing in this drought. Most of the ponds are also at historic lows and will not provide reasonable hunting opportunities. |
| Hunting conditions | Water levels in the lake decreased through out the spring and summer. Dry conditions have continued and prospects of any change in these conditions are not on the foreseeable horizon. The available water will not hold but 1 or 2 groups of hunters without conflict. The oxbows and river may provide more space.
|
| Expected hunting success | Very limited. Teal, wood ducks, and some large ducks are on the area. |
| Comments | Please rain! |
