Description

The Skagit Delta offers a chance to hunt world‑class waterfowl habitat entirely on public land. Out here, you're in the wetlands-moving with tides, watching birds work naturally, and experiencing the hunt the way it's meant to be. It's a unique blend of challenge and reward that you simply don't get in a field or pit. For many hunters, it becomes a bucket‑list hunt.

What to Expect

I will contact you the day before with a meet time and location. Start time will vary a bit with legal shooting hours and tides, with the trip lasting about 6-8 hours or until limits are reached. Bring snacks, waders, jacket, gun, and ammo. Expect to have a laid back and fun time!

Gear & Equipment

Here is the list of items you are definitely going to need:

• Shotgun
• 2-3 boxes of non-toxic ammunition per hunt
• Camo or earth tone waders
• Camo or earth tone jacket
• Camo hat or beanie

Weapon Details

Bring your choice of 12ga or 20ga shotgun. Modified or improved choke, we shoot pretty close in.

I support youth hunting! A 3rd hunter may be allowed if he/she is a youth under the age of 16. Please contact me and ask.

No lodging provided. Local hotels/motels are available.

Physical Requirements

We'll hunt in wetlands where water depth and footing change throughout the day. The hunt requires the ability to stand, move, and wade in water. Being comfortable walking or standing in water and soft ground is essential.

Permit & Tag Application Process

Washington Small Game License, Washington Migratory Bird Permit and Federal Duck Stamp are required at a minimum.

Snow goose and sea duck retention ((this is seldom how we hunt) also require the Washington Migratory Bird Authorization and Catch Record Card.

I recommend a Discover Pass for parking at all access points.
