Three Premium Waterfowl Destinations to Consider This Year

The great thing about being a passionate waterfowler is that my season never ends.  Matter of fact, if I do my planning accordingly, I can chase waterfowl year-round!  If I start chasing early season honkers in August on the prairie, I can run all the way to the end of January down south, switch gears and participate in the spring snow goose season and technically end my season in South America during the  mid-summer months, only to clean up may gear and get ready to start again in August!  Opportunities are endless for those passionate few.  Here are some destinations to take a strong look at to fill the void during the 2020 season.

Saskatchewan:

This small family run destination has it dialed in!  Located in the heart of the Canadian waterfowl factory, they do a great job with high quality field shoots in the mornings, with a solid clean-up shoot in the afternoons for any ducks needed for that daily limit.  A great mixed bag destination with honkers, snows and ducks.

Arkansas:

A traditional duck camp that has a great diversity in hunt presentation.  Whether the ducks are using the timber or the rice fields, this place has a great mixture.  A huge bonus with this destination is the afternoon Specklebelly goose shoots.  After a solid morning of chasing ducks, you can relax in the field with some great goose action.  

Oklahoma:

One of the top late season sleeper states, is definitely the “Sooner State!”  At the bottom of the migration of the central flyway, this giant ranch does a great job of putting guests on a strong mixed bag of puddle ducks.  Multiple private lakes dot this expensive piece of private property and an afternoon hog hunt can be added to round the days activities out! Simply a great adventure in December and January.

WTA has a full assortment of great waterfowl destination around the planet!  Planning ahead is key and if you’re a “duck nut”, Argentina is open from May-August for possibly the finest waterfowl hunting you’ll ever experience!  Feel free to give your WTA consultant a call and get that planning process started, we’re here to assist you from start to finish!

Hunt the Fjords: Authentic Greenland Hunt for Caribou and Musk Ox

Hunt the Fjords: Authentic Greenland Hunt for Caribou and Musk Ox

When a boat noses into a remote Greenland fjord and you step ashore holding your rifle with an experienced Inuit guide at your side, it’s immediately clear that this isn’t a typical hunt. It’s not even a typical Greenland hunt.

Most Greenland hunting is centered around Kangerlussuaq, where larger outfitters operate within fixed concessions. WTA’s exclusive hunt in Greenland breaks that mold. Working solely with local Inuit guides Hans-Erik and his son Leon, this hunt takes just two to four hunters at a time into the wild western fjords in pursuit of caribou and musk ox. It’s one of the most intimate and authentic Greenland hunts available today.

A Different Kind of Operation

Based in Sisimiut on Greenland’s western coast, this is a deliberately small operation. There are no large lodges or rotating waves of hunters. Instead, you’ll stay in comfortable canvas tents with cots, enjoy meals prepared by Leon’s fiancée, and hunt open terrain reminiscent of Alaska’s Brooks Range. Only 15 to 20 hunters are hosted each season between August through mid-October.

From Greenland’s second-largest town, Sisimiut, you’ll travel north by Targa 24 boat into fjords where the guides have hunted for generations. This is nomadic-style hunting: glassing vast country and operating without confined concession boundaries.

The Hunting

The strategy is simple and effective. Glass from the water, locate animals, go ashore, make your stalk. Boat access allows you to cover far more country than land-based operations, increasing opportunities while keeping pressure low.

Musk ox success is essentially 100%. These prehistoric-looking animals are rarely difficult once found—the challenge is locating them. They’re especially well-suited to bowhunters, often allowing close, deliberate approaches.

Caribou demand more effort and patience. Trophy quality is respectable, and the experience is exactly what many hunters seek: challenging stalks, stunning country, and bulls worthy of both the wall and the table. These caribou deliver a complete hunt—earned, memorable, and deeply satisfying.
