Duck hunters dream of hunting in Canada. It’s the breeding grounds for waterfowl, birds are abundant, and they haven’t received much hunting pressure yet. Farming practices are much different than here in the US which has both positives and negatives.
Duck hunting as temperatures warm and frozen water thaws can be a challenge as ducks move to new resources. Combine warmer weather with a bunch of rain and duck patterns virtually reset.
Snow goose hunting can be frustrating to say the least. Hours of scouting and setup sometimes end up with only a few birds on the ground, but there are days when the stars align and everything comes together.
Duck hunting is about the here and now. Often times, birds are in a spot for a couple days then move on due to weather and/or changing food sources. As a duck hunter, when you get an opportunity to hunt a large concentration of birds, you better do it as soon as possible because they could be gone tomorrow.

Planning an out of state duck hunting trip requires months of preparation. Vacation needs to be planned and lodging needs to be reserved. Duck hunters are at the mercy of mother nature when it comes time for their hunt.
