"I was particularly captivated by our take of harlequin ducks." – Chris Dorsey, Senior Editor, Ducks Unlimited Magazine

Hunting sometimes takes place for the shore over decoys, from the boat over decoys, or drifting through the straits and passes between the island of the Kodiak Archipelago. We sometimes pass shoot in the narrow passes formed by the small islands that are thick with tall spruce. Layout boats are used extensively with seaducks. They provide a unique offshore decoy opportunity that the ducks simply can't refuse.

All of our duck hunts are fair chase utilizing safe ocean going boats complete with state of the art marine electronics. The boats are complete with stoves and dining room for your convenience and comfort. Guides are Coast Guard licensed and approved with years of experience in safe seamanship and hunting techniques. We travel to remote sites and place two or three hunters with a guide and a dog in a strategic place. By duplicating this procedure we cover a large area and keep the ducks flying around the bay.

We suggest taking out trip insurance to cover unforeseen late cancellations. It covers emergencies while on your trip also. 

We think it is a good deal.

"…we shot a dozen species of ducks on drift shoots, pass shooting, jump shooting, and decoy hunts."  Chuck Petrie, Wildfowl Magazine

We provide a guide and a dog for every two to three duck hunters. We will clean your ducks for eating or prepare them for delivery to the taxidermist.
Our dogs are Chesapeake Retrievers and Labradors. They are great duck hunting dogs and handle our cold water well. If you bring your own hunting dog, we recommend a camouflage vest to help keep them warm.

"Your hospitality was wonderful. The adventure is one I will remember the rest of my life." – Robert Fanning, Olathe, Kansas

Sitka blacktail deer area also available. You may combine duck hunting with deer hunting on a fully guided basis or take them on an unguided basis incidental to your duck hunting. We often see them in the low flats and on the beaches during the late duck season. Guided deer hunting is available through the auspices of the Aleutian Island Guide Service of Kodiak. Prices vary according to your hunting emphasis.

   
"The guides bent over backwards for us, the accommodations were really first rate, and the scenery was just awesome." -- Chuck Petrie, Wildfowl Magazine

The modern lodge facility can handle up to twelve guests at a time. Our guestrooms hold two or three hunters and each is complete with private bath. We feature home cooked meals, specializing in local seafood. Guests often relax in the banya (local name for a Swedish style sauna) after a hard day in the wilderness. The lodge has complete gun cleaning benches and facilities for drying your boots and waders at the end of the day. We also provide accommodations for your dog if you choose to bring your own. We do everything to make your trip comfortable and relaxing while sharing this beautiful remote wilderness. We have been guiding anglers and hunters on Kodiak since 1984 and operating out of the lodge we built since 1989. Your hunt will be first class in every conceivable way.
