Any duck hunting groups less than 4 may be combined with another group if need be. A group of 4 or more will have a dedicated guide and will not be combined with another group. All duck hunters are required to wear waders. If you or a men of your group doesn’t have or can’t get waders, isn’t capable of standing in water for extended periods of time, isn’t capable of getting into or out of a layout boat, please let me know at time of booking so special arrangements can be made or options can be discussed. Please, let me know well in advance so I can plan accordingly rather than scramble to make arrangements the morning of the hunt. Later in the season this could have a significant impact on the success of your hunt. Early season hunts are typically done from shore or from boat. These are much easier hunts for children, elderly, mobility impaired people. Typically the first 4-5 weeks of the season allow us to utilize boat blinds and shore blinds. Later in the season birds get weary and avoid land and large boat blinds. This is when we utilize other methods such as layout boats, small standing blinds, and other less intrusive methods of concealing hunters. An unforgettable duck hunting experience Don't miss the chance to experience Florida-style duck hunting at its finest. Reserve your spot for the upcoming season and embark on an unforgettable adventure with our expert guides. Prepare to become a skilled duck hunter as you create memories that will last a lifetime.

The next morning take the mud boat out into some open water to try ringers, then pack up and go to a private dairy to hunt in a reservoir to knock down some black bellies.
