You can't take everything you read as truth. Could have just been written to throw off the internet scouters.

 Re: Migration is on!!! North Dakota Report
Personally witnessed it from my layout blind, saw thousands heading South, and located a goose feed in excess of a mile long and by estimation 50-75,000 birds in it. The most birds I have ever seen in my life. Now I hope there are some left to pound in the fields as most water is locking up. Heading down to 2 degrees tonight and -10 degrees tomorrow.

I've heard them called boot lips before, I'm sure that's what he means.

 Re: Migration is on!!! North Dakota Report
I really don't have a problem with em honestly. Most places I kill em they taste just like the rest of the ducks we kill.
I pass on them unless times are hard though
