South Dakota Duck Hunting

South Dakota Duck Hunting is truly the mecca for present day water fowler. In fact South Dakota duck hunting has become a “bucket list” hunt and replaced many waterfowler’s Canada trip every year.

Our guided SD duck hunts are primarily for mallards, pintails and gadwall and will more than likely be field hunts.  We conduct our SD duck hunts in the NE corner of the state, which is as close as it gets to paradise for a duck.  The area consists mainly of two things, potholes and rolling corn and bean fields, the perfect combination for ducks to thrive.

Our SD duck hunts take place in early to mid November when the migration is traditionally in full swing.  The majority of the hunts will be in corn or bean fields we scouted the previous day and had ducks feeding in them.

Our sets will be large spreads set up to kill ducks and honkers, with the emphasis being on mallards. Our duck hunting guides will be scouting the area extensively to find fresh birds to hunt every day.
