Or know anyone that does? I'm looking for some new places to goose hunt next month, and any leads would be appreciated.

Maybe a little more details as to where you're located in IN would help out. Unless you really don't mind driving a long drive to get there.

I'm in Laporte county, which is in the North center of the state. Counties that would work would be Laporte, Starke, Saint Joseph, Marshall, Jasper, Lake, and Elkhart.

You can call the DNR.  They have some program for city people to find places to hunt called "hunters helping farmers" or something like that.  I think it's mainly for deer that are damaging crops but they may be able to help you find something.

I've tried, they just assist with deer hunting property. I did sign up a couple months ago, and never heard anything.

I wondered how successful that program would really be...

This is a total shot in the dark but you could call your county's purdue extension agent.  They usually have a real good relationship with the local farmers and could possibly get you the "in" that you need with one of them.

I've got a couple guys I could ask. I'll see if I can track them down this weekend. What make a good goose hunting field?  Well, other then the obvious answer of "geese".

Any picked cornfield with wide open spaces will do. They'll feed just about anywhere, and if geese have been seen in it, that's a bonus.

Did you find a place to hunt yet?  I might have a possibility. This guy I know had a bunch of black dirt farmed out and then  let it flood out. It's a pretty large area of water.  Let me know if your interested. I'll ask him the next time I see him if it's something you're interested in.
