Hunt where the ducks want to be!

Imagine, you and your hunting friends, 14,000 acres of native prairie, wetlands, grain fields and small lakes – and there is no one else! Located in the heart of the duck factory, on the Missouri Coteau in northern Kidder County, this is where free lance hunting is at its best and with no competition. So many opportunities, so many places to go.

It’s here, it’s yours at Hunt Dakota.

Waterfowl hunter? The options are many and things are always changing. Early in season usually brings warm weather to chase the local ducks and geese around in just a long sleeve shirt but you can see snow the first week of October. The first weeks of duck season is best hunted in the potholes where the local birds gather attracting the first migrants of the year. It’s blue-wings, gadwalls, mallards and pintails along with some local redheads and spoonbills. Do your homework and scouting and you can find a small grain field where the local Canadas have been using regularly, attracting ducks by the day.
As the season ages into October, anything can happen. Diver numbers grow as the season moves toward November. Canvasbacks traditionally come through the third week of the month and many of the drakes look awesome!
Keep watching the small sloughs and fields but spread out scouting to the smaller lakes where field feeding mallards will rest during the day between trips to the field. Every day can bring fresh ducks so keeping up on things is important if you are looking for a limit of ducks every day out. It can be done, easily, if you put the effort into it.
Don’t overlook late season. It can end early November or the season can last into mid to late November. And if it does, it’s magic! The green heads are gorgeous and easily to pick out as they circle to drop into the decoys. Don’t overlook water near feeding birds where the ducks go to get a drink after tanking up on corn or beans.
If you like to chase geese, there are always Canadas around and as the northern birds come in they quickly find the others that are already there. The snow geese start filtering in later in October and will be overwhelming in numbers all the way until the last lakes freeze up.

Upland birds? We got ’em. The numbers fluctuate from season to season but considering the only pressure they will have is from you, your odds are good you will be taking some pheasants or grouse home with you. The Hunt Dakota properties offer it all when it comes to habitat. The hills covered in native grass and the sloughs and wetlands grow a lot of pheasants and grouse. And they don’t migrate. Find the habitat and you will find the birds. The best pheasant hunting is around the Farmstead that features cropland laced with tree rows and dotted with sloughs. The grouse can be found in the hills on the north side of the properties. And anywhere you may run into a covey of partridge. Despite the state wide trend their numbers are up locally.
