05-06 waterfowl proc is not out yet, last years is a good reference. Last year was my first year out so I am by no means a seasoned fowler but I have learned a few things. You will be addicted; you will spend lots of money on gear, shells, decoys; you will learn that your significant other is either patient and caring and understand your new afliction or you will have a dear john letter on your truck windshield. Be prepared to stink and get dirty and bathe the dog weekly, or keep it outside. Saturdays are terrible at the WMA's, try to avoid them if at all possible.
As far a license, you will need a small game and a federal duck stamp (very fun to get the stamp at the post office, i think they employ the biggest number of PETA folks around). You will also have to register with HIP which is free. The stamp will cost 15.00. The stamp is good June to June each year and alows you to pass on WMA's year round when they are open.
I would be more than willing to take up a seat on your boat and take your dog or mine, I even have a gun I can lend ya. If you want to chat more shoot me a PM and I can try my best to help you out.
