Everglades Duck Hunting

South Florida has some of the best duck hunting in the Southeast United States. When the weather gets cold up North, the ducks migrate in droves to our coasts, inland lakes, ponds, marshes, and flooded pastures. Most years we winter large amounts of both divers and puddle ducks including:

Ringed Neck Ducks
Bluebills
Canvasbacks
Red Heads
Blue Winged Teal
Green Winged Teal
Shovelers
Widgeon
Pintails
Gadwalls

In addition to the migrating birds, we also have our “resident” birds:

Mottled Ducks
Black Bellied Whistling Ducks
Fulvous Whistling Ducks

We predominantly shoot Ringed Neck Ducks, Teal, and Mottled Ducks, all of which don’t necessarily respond that well to calling and are more likely to commit due to location, pressure, and decoy spread. This makes South Florida duck hunting a great trip for both new duck hunters and experienced waterfowlers. Our hunts take place on private water that is managed to provide each hunter the best Florida duck hunting experience possible.
