Why You Should Consider Alberta for Your Waterfowl Hunt
In the last few years, Alberta has quickly become Canada's number 1 waterfowl hunting province. While the waterfowl hunting in Saskatchewan and Manitoba has historically been good, Alberta has become the top waterfowl destination in Canada for waterfowlers all over the world.
What makes Alberta a great waterfowl hunting destination?
The Central Flyway Migration is Shifting West
Dry conditions and an astonishing amount of waterfowl hunting pressure in the eastern part of the central flyway have pushed the migration west towards Alberta in the last 5-10 years. In the 2025 hunting season, we are observing a continuation of this trend, with bird numbers and hunting quality only getting better.
Less Waterfowl Hunting Pressure
We can, with great confidence, say that Alberta has some of the lowest waterfowl hunting pressure in the USA & Canada. This is crucial to provide a quality experience for our guests.
Better Hunting Regulations & Opportunities
Alberta’s outfitting industry is highly regulated, and we are a proud member of the Alberta Professional Outfitters Society. Alberta is legally restricted to a very small number of outfitters allowed to operate, and this ensures our birds are never overhunted and allows plenty of opportunity for everyone. Outfitting in the rest of Canada is not nearly as regulated, allowing for a near free-for-all, and in some cases, a catastrophic amount of hunting pressure from the numerous outfitters.
