Duck Hunting FAQs
Our duck season spans from May through mid-August coinciding with the ducks migration patterns. Please note, these are our winter months.
This can depend on a variety of factors such as weather conditions and individual’s shooting ability – but 1,000 a day or more is realistic.
Depending on species, you can expect between 25 and 40 ducks per day.
Hunters do need a license to duck hunt, and this will all be organized by the lodge. We are here to help take care of all your needs before you arrive.
Duck hunting occurs during our winter months which can mean more variable weather. Visit our gear page for more information on this, but the three most important items for ducks are:
- Winter Camouflage clothing
- Waterproof footwear
- Ear Protection
No experience is needed! This is an excellent hunt for all experience levels.
