New Hampshire is tiny, but for waterfowlers searching out something unheard of these days — uncrowded public hunting opportunity — the Granite State is worth a look.

There's not much coastline to New Hampshire; 18 miles of Atlantic Ocean waterfront. However, that coast offers some down-and-dirty sea duck hunting for eiders and scoters, particularly during the latter part of the season.

Inland, hidden beaver ponds and countless dam-slowed creeks provide havens for mallards, wood ducks and the occasional black duck. Canada goose hunts, early- and late-season outings, have gotten better in recent years, as they have throughout much of the eastern United States.
