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!

Win this World-Class Moose Hunt in British Columbia

Win this World-Class Moose Hunt in British Columbia

My Canadian moose hunt was the kind of trip I’ll tell my grandkids about. It’s everything I could have wanted in a moose hunting adventure: miles of unspoiled wilderness in British Columbia, prime moose habitat, and the best guide I’ve ever had. And the best part? Right now, you have a shot to win this world-class hunt for yourself.

Booking this hunt through Worldwide Trophy Adventures made planning easy. Their knowledgeable consultants guided me through each step of the process and helped me create a plan that fit my goals. For me, that meant making the marathon drive from Michigan to Northern BC so I could bring as much meat back with me as possible. It was a long but simple trip across North America, filled with black bearelk, and mule deer sightings. With WTA’s help, the border crossings went smoothly as well.

The camp was straight out of my boyhood imagination—remote, accessible only by bush plane and boat, and in the middle of tons of fresh sign: wolf, grizzly, and moose. Every day from camp we’d watch groups of mountain goats feeding in the peaks above us and drinking fresh water straight from a stream. The wall tents in the middle of the wilderness were comfortable and the food was fantastic.

The hunt itself was a lesson in patience, as we were early in the season. We set out on day hunts from camp each morning, climbing to higher elevation to glass into the valleys below for rutting trophy bulls. Warm weather kept movement slow initially (though we saw moose all week), but a change in the weather brought with it the action we had been anticipating. The much-needed cold and rainy snap set off the beginning of the rut.

I’ll never forget the moment when a large bull moose emerged in response to our calls. The landscape, the stalk, the shot—epic. A few moments later, I was standing awestruck over a giant bull moose. This was, by all accounts, a successful hunt.

Now it’s your turn. WTA is offering an incredible opportunity to walk in the same footsteps with a sweepstakes for this exact hunt for mature bull moose. It’s one of the best moose hunts in North America, filled with tons of quality animals and a value of $23,500.

You’ll share in the same rustic comforts of our wall tent camp and the camaraderie that comes after the day’s hunt. It’ll be a hunting trip you never forget.

Sweepstakes tickets are $35 and you can buy up to 10 tickets. With each dollar you spend, you earn Bonus Bucks which are valid for one year and can be cashed in on your next WTA adventure or applied to your next TAGS portfolio. But don’t delay. Enter now to secure your sweepstakes tickets before the sweepstakes closes on April 28, 2025.

A BC Moose Adventure

A BC Moose Adventure

I knew I was in for something special when I booked a moose hunt in British Columbia with Worldwide Trophy Adventures. I’d heard stories about the vast wilderness and massive Canadian moose up there and I couldn’t wait to hit the trail. Trading the familiar hills of Pike County, Georgia for the untamed Canadian Rockies, I was stepping into a totally different type of hunting with my bow in hand.

Things kicked off with a series of flights that ended in Whitehorse, Yukon. We spent a restful night in Whitehorse and grabbed a bite to eat at the Dirty Northern. Early the next morning, we jumped on a floatplane for the 90-minute flight of a lifetime. Rugged mountains, untouched rivers, and deep blue lakes stretched as far as I could see. Epic. We were at the edge of the world. Landing at base camp, I met my guides, Dawson and Luke. We shared a hearty meal, double-checked our gear, and hit the sack. We’d be trekking to spike camp in the morning.

At dawn, we loaded up the horses and forded a river. It was the start of a grueling 7-hour hike to spike camp. The guides moved like mountain goats while I nursed a two-week-old leg injury from a run-in with a chainsaw back home. It was a constant reminder to take it slow and steady. By the time we reached spike camp, we were deep in moose country.

Our spike camp was bare bones but perfect. A few tents tucked in the trees and a simple campfire setup gave it the nice home-away-from-home feel that many of us hunters love. That first night, we were able to get a bull to respond to our calls. He answered from a ways off but never showed. It was just enough to get our blood pumping for the next few days.

On day two we were up with the sun, fueled by strong coffee and lingering excitement. We spent the day scanning a meadow from a glassing point, hoping to catch a bull cruising for a hot cow. By evening, all we’d seen was a lone cow. We trudged back to camp empty-handed but eager to try new ground the next day.

Early the next morning, a bull with a mid-40″ spread was spotted just over a nearby ridge. As we made our way in his direction, an even bigger bull chased him off. This behemoth, flanked by two cows, was headed our way. Dawson and I quickly set up in a patch of brush, hoping to call him in to bow range.

Dawson’s calling was spot on. The bull turned his massive head our way and started lumbering toward us. When he broke through the trees, my heart nearly stopped. He was enormous. He came within 80 yards but wouldn’t quite close the distance for a bow shot. Knowing the moment was slipping away, I swapped my bow for Dawson’s rifle. I took a deep breath, steadied myself, and slowly squeezed the trigger. The giant was down in seconds.

Walking up to that moose was the definition of humbling. The sheer size of the animal was overwhelming. The bull’s antlers measured 56″ wide with rounded-off points and massive front paddles that screamed “old bull.” Truly a once-in-a-lifetime booner moose. The excitement on Dawson’s and Luke’s faces said it all. This was rare. We spent the next few hours field dressing, capping, and packing out the meat.

That night at spike camp, we gorged ourselves on fresh backstraps over an open fire. We swapped stories and relived the day’s hunt over and over again. It’s hard to imagine a more perfect end to a day in the BC wilderness.

As we trudged back to basecamp, I was struck by the sheer magnitude of what I’d just experienced. The lofty mountains, the separation from the modern world, and the camaraderie with Dawson and Luke, along with that final moment of sweet success, made this moose hunt everything I’d hoped for.

If you’re thinking about a moose hunt, WTA’s setup in British Columbia offers something truly special. The landscape is largely untouched, the game is abundant, and every moment is an adventure. If you’re ready to chase true northern giants, contact WTA’s team and start planning your next big adventure. Trust me, it’ll be a hunt to tell your grandkids about.
