Just bouncing this around in my mind right now .... thought I would throw out a couple questions and see what you guys think .... I have 117 acres about a mile away from the Ankeny Goose Refuge between Albany and Salem .... with LOTS of GEESE and some ducks .... I am making a spot to hunt on my property with the ability of flooding it .... it is planted in Dwarf Corn and Japanese Millet next to the blinds ... and Corn , Beans , and Wheat in the fields around it .... Last year I shot birds in just a un-planted mud hole there as it was not done ... with it being planted this year ... it should be allot better .....
QUESTION .... I am thinking about letting people hunt there on the weekends ... I want to get a little return on what I have invested .... and will charge something .... What is a fair dollar amount for a days hunting ? .... Also , I don't want to get into having to report earnings .... so if I barter the hunt out for a gun instead of cash ( if no birds shot ..then No fee ) ... can I get around having to report it since no cash changed hands ? Any thoughts would be great ..... This is just in the thinking stage and may never happen if it will be a hassle ....
Thanks..... Doug
