M E X I C O W I N G S H O O T I N G Duck, Dove & Quail Hunting


763-595-5936

THE HUNT Mexico

Groups staying at the lodge will be duck hunting on the Laguna Madre where over 3 million diver and puddle ducks migrate each winter. Sights of Redheads covering the sky waiting to decoy into spreads are very common on the Madre. You will have six total hunts on your trip with a mix of ducks and quail/dove. On any given day, you may drive out to one of the numerous freshwater ponds near the lodge, or head to the Laguna Madre and board the boat for a trip out to this saltwater expanse. Once in the blinds, you will see a mix of redhead, widgeon, and plenty of pintails. Blinds are normally bench style with solid footing OR you may be standing on a pallet blind located near one of the many island points where pass shooting is furious and fun. This area is home to some of the best WILD quail hunting in the world with Bob White coveys littered across hedgerows. All in all, this is a true mixed bag hunt! Quail will be hunted traditional style walking hedgerows and flushing birds where most groups will get 12-15 flushes per hunt. These are 100% wild quail and once they are in the air, they are very challenging to hit! The hunt will not use bird dogs rather the bird boys will walk along to flush quail.

HUNTING LODGE

Mexico

Our lodge has 14 rooms all with private

bathrooms. Rooms are comfortable, clean and

air-conditioned. A large dining room and full

bar round out the lodge along with a game

area and two lounges. The lodge has WiFi

Internet service and satellite TV to keep in

touch with the world. While there is a full bar

stocked with quality name brand liquors, you

may still have a preference that is not

provided. For this, we suggest stopping at the

duty-free shop near the border in Brownsville,

TX to pick-up your favorite brand. You will

not need specific adapters for your

electronics, as the lodge is 110V wired. The

food at the lodge is very good and a wide

variety is prepared during your stay. We have

bottled water for drinking and the ice is

perfectly safe to use in drinks as all ice is

filtered.
