There is absolutely no waterfowling in New Brunswick ;) , least of all around Moncton.
Actualy we have it pretty good, you're a little late to be looking for much help early this season, guys have their traditional openning morning spots all sorted out and aren't likely to share.
I'm not an expert on the moncton area but the salt marshes would be a good bet. Get a Topo map and look for small lakes and ponds then go exploring chances are the hot spots have been marked by now, but You may stumble onto a hidden jem. Best of luck and don't get discouraged, openning week can be a bit of a mad house anyway, but after deer season starts and the yahoos leave the marshes things get better.
Join the local gun club and skeet and trap club and try to make friends, you maybe able to find a hunting partner.

A few things to know about in NB.

1). You can hunt from the side of the road, unlike most provinces. This may result in you being handcuffed at gunpoint by the RCMP, but in the end they will have to let you go with an apology.

2). There are a LOT of bears around to shoot.

3). Use this http: //geonb.snb.ca/geonb/ website to scout rural hunting spots. It's excellent. You can even measure distances from houses to know where you can legally shoot.

4). That extra month of sea duck hunting in February is a ton of fun, but the ducks you get will probably taste like crap. Or fish. Or fishy crap.
